Shortly after Mega Man: Dual Override was first revealed, Capcom announced that it would be holding an art contest where fans could submit their designs in hopes of their creation becoming one of Dr. Wily's Robot Masters. Over 10,000 entries were submitted and, as revealed on Thursday's Capcom Spotlight presentation, of that number, only six remain.

The Mega Man: Dual Override art contest ran from December 11, 2025 through January 1, 2026. The Dual Override team narrowed its choices to 20 entries and have since reduced that number further to just six based on fan votes.

Here are the six remaining finalists:
