It's close to the end of the month and that means i's time for Rockman X DiVE's DiVE Festival. The character this time is "Zero Nightmare". You can find the trailer after the break!
His first active skill is Buster Attack which shoots multiple energy bullets in a row. One of the skill cards will increase the number of bullets for running fire.
Zero Nightmare's second active skill is Genmu Zero Kai. It launches a gigantic energy blade dealing damage to all enemies along its path. One of the skills cards will allow him to use Genmu Zero Kai repeatedly with a cooldown period of 16 seconds.
Lastly, one of his passive skills will allow him to gain invulnerability when using an active skill that can be triggered one more time after a 4 seconds cooldown.
As an anecdote, the first trailer Capcom Taiwan uploaded (you can see it here) had the wrong icons for Zero Nightmare's skills. Awakened Zero's Genmu Zero and Roll Caskett's Throw Wrench skill icons were incorrectly shown. On top of that, the icon below the character health bar is not Zero Nightmare's icon but Awakened Zero. The later was not fixed in the "corrected" trailer.
But that's not all! One of his passive skills was changed from one trailer to another. "Invincibility while dashing" was changed for "invincibility while using any of his two active skills".
Deep Log error, they say!
The 12th DiVE Festival starts this Wednesday through June 2nd. Let us know what you think of the new addition to the game roster in the comments!
Oh that is nice art! Screw the mobile game. Just make an art book.
ReplyDeleteYou know what would make this perfect? If he spoke nonsense, gibberish, or just adamantly believed he were the real Zero.
ReplyDeleteHis art kind of tells me he knows what he is, though. Poo.
Agreed.
DeleteWho's to say he still can't do that? The "original" nightmare zero had such awful memory issues he referred to himself as watashi when demanding where zero was in the Japanese version, perhaps the dive did the best it could to stabilize it... Although it would be funny if it was somehow a copy of Wily's consciousness piloting this doing it's best to act "normal"...
DeleteAh, yes the saturated recolor of Zero
ReplyDeleteNow without a left eye to make him look like a horror move villain.
DeleteWho has now lost an eye to become a horror movie villain.
DeleteHe will be in our NIGHTMAREs lol
DeleteLet's cheese it up by giving him an eyepatch.
DeleteWITH HYPER-REALISTIC BLOOD
DeleteHonestly, I just couldn't help but see this "character" as lame in X6, and this hasn't really changed that. If anything it should have been a skin for an existing Zero.
ReplyDeleteReally? I think his concept is really cool, and what little characterization he gets could be expanded into something interesting in adaptations like, say, Archie's theoretical X comics had they continued working on the Mega Man series
DeleteBut,Nightmare Zero's whole concept has been done before (and after when you count Omega) and with better execution Boogeyman Zero here is literally Fake Zero but purple and really insane.
DeleteWell, Nightmare Zero is still pretty different from Fake Zero and Omega, even if the concept had been done before:
Delete1. Fake Zero was created by Sigma, but was destroyed by the original Zero a few seconds after his appearance.
2. Nightmare Zero was created by Gate using the Nightmare Virus, and is the only clone of Zero that is still alive.
3. Omega is pretty much Zero's original body with another Reploid's data put inside it, so he can pretty much be excluded from the whole "Zero clone" shtick, as he really isn't a Zero clone due to having different data.
1. I agree completeley on the whole omega not being a clone of zero thing.
Delete2. I never played x6 (or x4 or x5 or x7 or x8) but i remember hearing about dialoug where Zero says something along the lines of "well, gate's dead im going to take care of that clone now. But i could be wrong.
3. I got nothing against this purple faker i just thought his concept was a tiny bit overusec is all
It can't be tricky for now
ReplyDeleteIt can't be tricky for now
ReplyDeleteCool but just screw the mobile game. Do it for Switch, PS4, PS5, XBOX, and PC.
