About this game
Mega Man returns to action stages guarded by robot bosses. You can switch weapons as the situation changes, and sliding adds another movement option when crossing the terrain or responding to an enemy. His companion Rush provides three support functions. These are chosen alongside weapons as equipment, so movement assistance is part of the same toolkit as your attacks. The recurring task is to read the next obstacle, choose a useful tool and carry out the movement or shot.
