After an absence of almost 10 years, Capcom has announced another Mega Man Legends game, this time for Nintendo’s upcoming handheld, the 3DS.

Entitled Mega Man Legends 3 Project, Capcom teases that fans of the franchise will have an opportunity to “be part of the development process like never before as they interact directly with the team!”
