Rockman ZX Advent (ロックマンゼクスアドベント Rokkuman Zekusu Adobento?) is the second installment of the Mega Man ZX series of Mega Man video games. The game was first revealed at the World Hobby Fair in Japan,[1] and it was soon after reaffirmed on Capcom's official website. It is confirmed that the game will appear on the Nintendo DS, and according to an article on Japanese Gaming site EG,[2] will surpass the previous title in many aspects.

[edit] Current details
Revealed through Japanese magazine scans at Go Nintendo[3] were the first true details of the game. The game will star two new protagonists, Gray (グレイ Gurei?) (male), who is described as a fourteen-year-old failed experiment awakened from a cryogenic sleep, and Ashe (アッシュ Asshu?) (female), a fifteen-year-old ruin hunter who works for Legions, a government organization that oversees the world's affairs. Prometheus and Pandora from the first ZX game also return, and the two are focal points in each character's unique stories. Thus far, the only Biometal shown is Model A, apparently based on Axl from the Mega Man X series of games. This transformation combats with two large hand-cannons, can use homing shots, and can assume the identity of fallen Reploids. Another minor detail is that Gray and Ashe can use a buster gun in their human forms (unlike Vent and Aile).[4]
[edit] Bosses
So far, Pandora and Prometheus return as boss characters. It seems as if there will be 8 animal/element combo bosses as per the previous Megaman Zero/ZX games. Drawing on Model A's ability to mimic attacks, players can apparently become these defeated bosses and utilize their attacks. So far, those revealed are:
- Diaburn the Gazelloid - A gazelle-like boss with flame attacks, resembles Flame Stag from Mega Man X2.[5]
- Chronofos the Tridenroid - A trilobite-like boss with ice attacks.[5]
