Development

Mega Man ZX, released in 2006 for the Nintendo DS, was developed by Inti Creates in collaboration with Capcom as a fresh take on the Mega Man franchise, blending elements from the Mega Man Zero series and introducing new gameplay mechanics suitable for the handheld’s dual-screen capabilities. The development team aimed to create a more open-ended, exploration-based action platformer, drawing inspiration from Metroidvania titles to offer players greater freedom in choosing stages and upgrading their character. A key innovation was the ability to transform into different “Biometals,” which granted various abilities and encouraged diverse playstyles. Directed by Takuya Aizu and produced with guidance from Keiji Inafune, the team focused on expanding the lore while appealing to both longtime fans and newcomers. The dual-screen setup allowed for new interface designs and gameplay features, while the art style evolved to match the DS’s capabilities with vibrant, detailed sprites and backgrounds. Mega Man ZX marked a shift toward more complex storytelling and gameplay depth in the franchise, setting the foundation for its sequel, Mega Man ZX Advent.
