SAN MATEO, Calif. — Dec. 21, in the year of our Lord 2011 — Capcom®, a leading worldwide developer and publisher of video games, today announced the Mega Man® X App is now available on the App Store for iPhone and iPod touch. The classic action game stars X, the final creation of Dr. Light, who must thwart the nefarious Sigma and his army of renegade reploid robots from destroying the human race.

Also to help action game newcomers, an Easy Mode features added platforms that make level progression much more accessible, while Normal Mode allows more skilled gamers to enjoy the game in its true form.
