About this game
The collection brings together the four Mega Man Zero games, Mega Man ZX and ZX Advent. In Zero's adventures, movement and attack positioning work together: wall jumping can carry you around an enemy for a saber strike. The ZX heroes instead draw on Biometals for powered forms, and ZX Advent adds transformations that copy bosses and their abilities. You can enable Casual Scenario Mode to reduce difficulty or use Save-Assist checkpoints to retry sections. Z Chaser gives selected stages a separate objective: finish as quickly as possible. Visual filters, layout options for the ZX games and an art gallery accompany the original adventures, letting you adjust their presentation or look through their artwork.
