In the Games

Mega Man X2

Sprite from Mega Man X2.

Magna Centipede debuts in Mega Man X2 as one of the eight Mavericks on the Stage Select screen. He is a former Maverick Hunter who was captured during a mission and brainwashed into a servant of Sigma, now serving as the boss of Central Computer Stage. His attacks are tricky to dodge and he can inject a virus into X to weaken his abilities. Defeating Magna Centipede grants X the Magnet Mine. His weakness is the Silk Shot, from Morph Moth, which destroys his tail and disables all of his attacks save for his shuriken. A boss attack rematch with Magna Centipede later occurs in X-Hunter Stage 4.
