Inafune also talked about making a follow up to " Dawn of Dreams " but he stated he was more interested in developing " Mega Man Legends 3 ".
Following the cancellation, a Facebook group entitled " 100, 000 Strong for Bringing Back Mega Man Legends 3 " was created, and aims to get Capcom to resume development of the game.
"Mega Man Legends 3 ", known as in Japan, is a cancelled video game set to be the sequel to " Mega Man Legends 2 " and was going to be the fourth game in the series.
Former senior manager of community, Seth Killian, denied that art assets from the game were reused, and confirmed that " E . X . Troopers " was already well into development before " Mega Man Legends 3 " was cancelled.
In September 2007, Keiji Inafune commented that he was asked by several fans if " Mega Man Legends 3 " would be made; although Inafune expressed a desire to make such a game, he stated that he could not do it at that time.
In the video promoting the Kickstarter, Inafune stated that he wanted to make the project one where he could get the fans involved, following the cancellation of " Mega Man Legends 3 " which similarly sought to get fans involved with the game's development process.
