Our Expert Score

81/100

Mega Man X on mobile is an interesting beast. As a port of a legendary SNES title, the core gameplay remains flawless—the level design, the boss patterns, and the upgrade system are still masterclasses in the genre. Capcom did a good job making the controls work on a touchscreen, though serious players will definitely want to use a Bluetooth controller for the later stages.

The 'Easy' mode and the ability to customize the UI layout are welcome additions for a mobile audience. Visually, it uses the high-res sprites which are a bit polarizing compared to the original pixel art, but they look sharp on modern Retina displays. It’s a nostalgic trip that still holds up as a challenging action-platformer.

Mega Man X revolutionized the series with a darker story and dynamic new mechanics like wall-jumping and dash-maneuvers. This mobile version brings the entire experience to your pocket. Hunt down the 8 Maverick leaders, claim their weapons, and find the hidden armor capsules to power up X. With optimized touch controls, a new ranking system, and full support for game controllers, it's the ultimate way to play a classic.
