1.4.0

Version 1.4.0 was a major update to Mega Man Maker, released on July 25, 2018. This update introduced a brand new challenge mode, and added content from Mega Man 6 and, after much anticipation from the community, Mega Man 7. Since Mega Man 7 is a 16-bit game, all the content from it had to be remade from scratch to fit Mega Man Maker's 8-bit art and music.

In addition to the content from Mega Man 6 and Mega Man 7, two assets from the NES games were introduced as part of the programmer call for this update, namely Shadow Blade and Bubukan.
