It has been about a month since the Mega Man Zero/ZX Legacy Collection launched and the compilation has been fantastic. Combining 4 of the best GBA games in existence and their Nintendo DS followups with reworked art, cutscenes, multiple game versions, and plenty of extras, there is a lot to love in the package. As has become a tradition with Capcom’s Mega Man collections this generation, the Mega Man Zero/ZX Legacy Collection comes with a nifty bonus mode called Z Chaser. Z Chaser is a speedrun focused mode where you can race against ghost data to beat the required time. Or, if you would like you can challenge a friend to see who is the fastest in a local split-screen match-up.
As it turns out, there is even an unlockable bonus level for any players who can manage to get pure S Ranks on all the other levels. Sounds easy enough right, until you actually try it out. The mode is pretty tough and requires great movement and combat skills to achieve the highest ranks. To try and help more players achieve the coveted S Ranks needed to get the final level, Capcom has released a new blog post outlining a number of key hints and strategies for players to follow to shave precious seconds off their times. It is pretty interesting stuff, for example, jumping at the end of a dash allows you to perform another dash quicker than not using a jump.
The whole post is filled with fascinating tips and insights so if you are interested in getting that bonus level, definitely give it a read!
