This product is also called Rockman Irregular Hunter X in Japan.

Background

Mega Man Maverick Hunter X is a remake of the original Mega Man X title for the PSP system. The game builds upon the Mega Man engine and adds totally new characters, environments and gameplay features to raise the bar for side-scrollingplatforms. As with previous Mega Man titles, a stage select system lets players tackle levels in any order and replay them limitless times. By defeating bosses, X acquires weapons which can be used to unlock new paths through other stages. Armor partsare also hidden throughout the game and provide players with abilities that can be used to access additional areas and items. With combinations of jumps, dodges, wall jumps and a high speed dash ability, the action reaches frantic heights which the X series has become known for.

Gameplay

Irregular X plays much like the original version.

You control MegaMan X, Dr. Light's final creation who has become a Maverick Hunter to bring equality to the world. He fights with his X Buster, an arm cannon that fires bullets and can be charged. He can run, jump, and gain new armor that allows him to dash and break obstacles.

After defeating Mavericks, X gains new weapons based off the Mavericks but that also come with ammo. Eventually X gains the ability to charge these weapons.
