Play FAQ

How do I switch weapons in the game?

Use shoulder-button style control (PAGE UP or W to switch forward, while D acts like SELECT key to cycle back) for armors and equipped attacks—some abilities are for mobility or destroying specific stage blocks.

What happens if Zero gets destroyed?

You only lose temporary access to Zero; he'll regenerate after certain progress checkpoints or a game over screen. Focus on X’s survival through power-up collecting in hazardous network tunnels and boss stages.

Is X's Hyper Chip worth collecting?

Definitely! These enhance weapon energy efficiency, special movement, and Z-Saber performance during limited-use Zero sequences—especially valuable for breaking secret walls or confronting giant mechanoids like Duff McWhalen.
