New Characters and Info Revealed for "Tower of Saviors" and Rockman X DiVE Collaboration

A week ago, the collaboration between mobile puzzle RPG Tower of Saviors and Rockman X DiVE was announced. And now, ahead of its debut on January 4th, we have an additional look at new characters coming to the game, team skills, and other details.

Find all the info after the break!



Through the "Virtual Rebirth" mechanic, X can change to the water-attribute “First Armor” or the light-attribute “Second Armor”. Zero can switch to the “Awakened Zero” form which grants outstanding strength and dual EP skills “Blood Moon” & “Flames of Illusion”.




A variety of team skills can be used when you pair up some characters. On top of the pairings in the images above -- when X is set as the leader and an ally units is another type of X -- new team skills can be unlocked. This works exactly the same when First Armor X or Second Armor X is set as the leader, but skills vary depending on the pairing. There's also team skills for different parings with Zero and Awakening Zero, and Ultimate Armor X and any other X variant.




Bit will join the game on January 6 via the Joint Operation “Unquestioning Loyalty”. Chill Penguin will be available this Monday when the update goes live.








Via the collaboration's official trailer, we can finally see artwork for Axl, Pallette and Marino. What's more? They also revealed Vile is coming to the game! The amount of characters joining in on this crossover is pretty outstanding, isn't it?

The Tower of Saviors development published plenty of information, so if you're interested in this crossover -- beyond knowing that exists or taking a look at the artwork -- we recommend you to check out the official website.

  2. Looking very nice for this collab. Still wish the global version would get it.

    1. It seems I made a mistake and misunderstood something. I checked the app store and the Mega Man X event is indeed available for the global version of the game.

  3. Sometimes the updates are funny, but I don't really like how much news pollution this game creates. What even is the fanbase crossover between whatever Tower of Savior is and Dive.

    1. I agree. It's sad that a very large part of Mega Man news here these days is for a mobile gacha game that's not even global. I find it rather annoying to be honest. In fact, the play-by-play nature of the coverage that's going on here makes me wonder if these posts may be sponsored because I don't recall Xover ever getting this much attention. (For now I'm assuming these X DiVE news posts are not sponsored, but the sheer volume has made the notion cross my mind more than once.)

    2. It's either this or "Day 851: The next major title in the MegaMan series is still in active development". And I'd rather have mobile gacha news than some figurine that I can't order because of region lock

    3. I agree, but I also understand Protodude is reporting Rockman news in general. And as such, these posts are Rockman news. Would be nice if there was a dedicated section or way to filter it out but that isn't doable on this site. At least we get some nice art out of it, and that's cool.

      The best way to get X DiVE pollution gone is to not play the game :) And tell your friends not to play it. And better yet, convince as many people as you can to not play Gacha games in general.

    4. X DiVE is NOT pollution! Not everyone hates gacha games like you do.

  4. Gacha games are just fine if you know how to handle them properly. If you don't like them, don't play them, but let other people decide for themselves. I'll bet you gacha-haters would despise Mario Kart Tour!
