source: wikipedia_enMega Man X6, known as Rockman X6 (ロックマンエックス6) in Japan, is a 2001 action-platform game developed and published by Capcom. The sixth main entry in the Mega Man X series, it was first released on the PlayStation in Japan on November 29, 2001, and was later made available in both North America and Europe.
The plot of Mega Man X6 takes place during the 22nd century, where humans live alongside fully sentient robots called "Reploids". The game follows shortly after the events of Mega Man X5, in which the Reploid Zero sacrifices himself to help save planet Earth from a global catastrophe caused by series antagonist Sigma. As the world recovers, an entity known as the "Zero Nightmare" has begun spreading chaos, prompting series protagonist X to investigate. Like past games in the series, players may tackle a series of platforming stages in any order, defeating enemies via precision shooting and gaining the unique weapon of each stage's boss after completing a stage. Unique to this game, X can also use Zero's Z-Saber sword for additional close-quarters combat. Zero can be unlocked as an additional playable character by completing hidden, optional stages, retaining his sword-based gameplay
