Rockman X DiVE - Lots of Closed Beta Info Revealed


The Rockman X DiVE development team updated the official website page today with plenty of new details and images. Don't waste any time and read on after the break!

First of all, we have confirmation that the game servers will be open 24-hours per day unless there is maintenance to fix bugs or to add more content. We will be able to play the game as much as we want for the duration of the Closed Beta Test that will last from September 12th 10:00 to September 16th 10:00 (GMT+8).

The playable characters for the CBT are:
  • X
  • Zero
  • Alia
  • Axl
  • Ultimate Armor X
  • Vile
  • Marino
  • Pallette

There will be additional characters added for the participants of the "Mega Man Collection Contest". At this point, it is unknown if those characters will be added on top of the list above or they are already on the list. The level cap for all playable characters is 20.


The development team are asking for our help to find bugs in the game, too. We will be able to send bug reports via the game itself (see image above) or via the official website by filling a bug report.



Modes available in the CBT are:
  • Story Mode
  • Co-op Mode: Level 20 required.
  • PvP Mode: Level 16 required. We can play in 1 vs 1, 3 vs 3 battles and additional modes not revealed yet.

Also, we have confirmation that there will be an Open Beta after the Closed Beta is finished but no other details have been given.

So that's about all there is on that front. In the meantime, I suggest that you take a good look and analyze all the details in the images released today because there is plenty of details and don't forget to visit the official site for a little bit more information.

Before we move to the next bit of news, take a good look at the images below – you may find a famous support character from the Classic Series!








Via the Capcom Taiwan YouTube Channel, here's a small video introducing RiCO's role in Rockman X DiVE.

There isn't much to say about it, other than reinforcing the general plot of the game that we've known about for a while:

The player's location is the "Deep Log" in the digital world. A place that stores all the game information from the Mega Man X  series and RiCO is the manager of this world.

  1. I saw a line saying the words "create a character", which implies that character creation is a thing in this game.

  2. Will there be gacha elements in the game?

    1. The build I saw over this past year didn't have any. However, it's always possible things changed as they continued to hammer out the monetization model

  3. How exactly is this game being monetized? I really wanna know how I'm gonna be pouring my money into it.

    1. I a really hoping for a pay once deal. I cant stand microtransactions, or subscription play, and frankly, there doesn't seem to be enough of a game here to monetize in that fashion. It seems like a fun little game with a cute hook, but overall it feels like it should be a Resident Evil Revelations style "Raid mode" sidegame to a full MMX title. And that's being generous, as it doesn't have near the content as the bonus Raid Mode in Resident Evil Revelations 2.

  4. All right, I'm dying of curiosity...who is the "famous support character" we're supposed to be looking for?
