The “Soul Unison” system returns, allowing players to utilize the special abilities from the opponents’ souls encountered in the game, enabling Mega Man to transform and use these powers during battle. Furthermore, the tempting “Dark Chip” will re-emerge. This attractive chip permits players to control the power of the darkness but the more times these chips are used, the more Mega Man’s Net-Navi’s maximum hit points will dwindle.
