The game play is much closer here to the classic 2-D games than was the previous title, but it does bear some features from Mega Man X7. This I would consider a good thing but it’s not quite the same, though: the character models are completely different here, the duck is gone, and of course they tweaked a few other things here and there.
At first glance this game is basically a traditional side-scrolling variation of Mega Man X7, without the free-range modes and the lock-on targeting cursor.
