Rockman World 2, released internationally as Mega Man II, is a 1991 action-platformer developed by Capcom for the Game Boy. Rather than being a direct port of the console titles, this entry combines Robot Masters and elements from both the NES versions of Mega Man 2 and Mega Man 3 into a brand new campaign. Players guide the Blue Bomber through a series of treacherous stages, defeating bosses to steal their signature weapons in order to foil another of Dr. Wily’s schemes.
How to Play
Navigate the stages using the arrow keys (D-pad), jump with X (A button), and fire your arm cannon with Z (B button). Press Enter (Start) to pause the game and open the weapon selection sub-menu. You can perform a slide to dodge attacks and clear low gaps by pressing Down and X at the same time.
Tips
- Every Robot Master is extremely vulnerable to a specific weapon. If you are struggling against a boss, try fighting someone else first and returning with their power.
- Use the slide maneuver frequently not just for clearing obstacles, but as a quick evasive dash during intense boss fights.
