Play Mega Man Xtreme 2 Online

Mega Man Xtreme 2 came out for the Game Boy Color in 2001, developed and published by Capcom. It was one of the later action games for the handheld, arriving as the Game Boy Advance was picking up steam. This title tried to bring a console style experience to the small screen, condensing the fast paced action the series was known for into a portable format.

You control Mega Man X, navigating side scrolling stages filled with themed Maverick robots. Your main goal is to stop a new threat by defeating eight bosses, then tackling a series of fortress stages. Signature mechanics include choosing four initial stages in any order, using acquired special weapons to exploit enemy weaknesses, and collecting enhancement chips to permanently upgrade X's abilities, like his armor or buster shot. The game moves quickly, demanding precise jumps and quick weapon swaps, and the difficulty can be punishing during some of the boss encounters. It feels like a concentrated burst of the classic Mega Man X challenge, made for on the go play.
