Cheats & Guides

Mega Man X5 Cheats For PlayStation

  1. Guaranteed Enigma success with no parts

    Before the timer expires, enter Volt Kraken/Squid Addler's stage. Press and hold the right button to make your character fall into the pit twice. It's important to do this before you gain control of him. Then let him fall into the pit 4 more times without touching any buttons. Go to the stage select screen and fire the enigma cannon. You'll see the cutscene where the Eurasia colony is destroyed if done correctly. Now you can freely explore the stages without worrying about the timer.

  2. Ultimate Armors

    In the 3rd Sigma stage, when you reach a gap with a single lift that won't fall when you stand on it, slide down the right wall and eventually move through the wall. There is a special secret capsule there.

  3. Endings

    There are three different endings to this game, depending on certain conditions met during the course of the game. They largely revolve around whether or not Zero becomes a Maverick: he will do so if he doesn't survive the crash of the Space Shuttle or Eurasia crashes, and in either case he will not be playable for the final stage.

    Unlockable Unlockable
    Zero becomes a Maverick and you beat the final stage with X Ending #1
    Zero doesn't become a Maverick and you beat the final stage with X Ending #2
    Zero doesn't become a Maverick and you beat the final stage with Zero Ending #3

  3. Beginning the game with X's Force Armor

    Before each level in Mega Man X5, you're given a choice of which character to use. You only have X and Zero available to you at the start, though you can unlock a third character of sorts right when the game begins.

    If you begin the game as X, you'll automatically unlock the Force Armor, a replica of a fully upgraded X from Mega Man X4, as being available to use in the game's levels. Given how difficult Mega Man X5 is, the Force Armor is a nice recourse to use should you ever get stuck -- though it's recommended that you only use the Force Armor if you're truly stuck, as it takes virtually all challenge out of a level when you decide to use it.
