The comma after 挑む is not necessary here, but was probably written to indicate that the sentence had not ended (since there is a pause at that point in the original game).

This translation is intended for people who already know English and are learning Japanese. It is not intended to be used to learn English, because the sentences in English may use strange or awkward wording in order to illustrate the vocabulary and grammar of the original Japanese.

Game title

Japanese
Rockman 2 Dr. Wilyの謎
English
Rockman 2: The Mystery of Dr. Wily

This could also be read as "Dr. Wily's Mystery".

Intro

Japanese
２００Ｘ年―　Ｄｒ．ライトの生み出した　スーパーロボット　ロックマン　によって　ナゾの天才科学者Ｄｒ．ワイリーの野望は阻止され　世界に平和が　よみがえった。
English
In the year 200X, thanks to Dr. Light's super robot Rockman, the mysterious genius scientist Dr. Wily's ambitions were thwarted and peace was restored to the world.
Japanese
しかし、世界征服をたくらむ　Ｄｒ．ワイリーは、再び　ロックマンに戦いを挑むべく、新たに造り出した　８体のロボットを　送り出したのである・・・。
English
But Dr. Wily, who is plotting world domination, sent out eight robots who are challenging Rockman to a battle once again.

The comma after 挑む is not necessary here, but was probably written to indicate that the sentence had not ended (since there is a pause at that point in the original game).

Bonus content - Can't Beat Air Man

Just because the wiki's about games doesn't mean we can't have fun with the concept. Here's a translation of the song "Air Man ga Taosenai", also called "Can't Beat Air Man".

Japanese
気がついたら　同じ面ばかりばかりプレイ　
English
When I notice I've been playing nothing but [this] screen
Japanese
そしていつも同じ場所で死ぬ
English
And I always die in the same place
Japanese
あきらめずに消える足場に挑戦するけど
English

足場 literally refers to a place for your feet. In this case it's referring to the game's infamous disappearing blocks.
