RockMan ZX Advent / JAP

In RockMan ZX Advent (international Mega Man ZX Advent) you take on the role of Grey or Ashe, two orphaned teenagers who awaken in a futuristic world full of Reploids and humans with cyber bodies. Each character in RockMan ZX Advent has their own story, but soon they are both on the same path: the fight against a dangerous organization called Legion, which hunts ancient technology and is controlled by the power-hungry Albert.

Unlike in previous Mega Man titles, in RockMan ZX Advent you can take on their biometal form after defeating bosses and use around eight new play styles - from nimble sabre fighters with Model H and ZX to animalistic pseudoroids with unique special abilities. These transformations open up new paths in RockMan ZX Advent, unlocking hidden areas and expanding your arsenal despite different strengths and limitations.

The game world of RockMan ZX Advent is built in the classic Metroidvania style: A large region divided into areas with optional missions, teleportable checkpoints and numerous side quests. Your goal: unlock more abilities, explore the world, master challenges and keep discovering new paths.

The controls of RockMan ZX Advent are precise and versatile thanks to the DS hardware - both via D-pad and optionally with stylus and touchscreen. The graphics of RockMan ZX Advent rely on charming, smoothly animated sprites that perfectly match the action-packed gameplay, and the epic background melodies increase the excitement of every mission.

RockMan ZX Advent is a bold step within the Mega Man series, combining familiar action gameplay with smart Metroidvania elements. If you're looking for spectacular transformations, exploration and strategic skill, RockMan ZX Advent is a challenging and varied adventure - even if the story seems overloaded in places and some of the form changes are not always easy to play.
