In the Games

Mega Man X2

The Second Armor debuted in Mega Man X2. It is most notable for introducing the Air Dash function and Giga Crush, which would later become staples of the series.

Parts	Location	Effect
Head Parts	Energen Crystal Stage	Grants X the Item Tracer, which deploys a cursor to reveal hidden passages through otherwise solid surfaces.
Body Parts	Robot Junkyard Stage	Reduces all damage received by 1 point, and grants X the Giga Crush. Taking damage from enemy attacks fills its Weapon Energy; once the gauge is full, X can use the Giga Crush to damage all enemies on the screen.
Arm Parts	Dinosaur Tank Stage	Grants X a fourth and fifth Charge Shot level, enabling the Double Charge Shot (ダブルチャージショット). By charging the X-Buster to the fourth level, X can fire a Lv.02 and a Lv.03 Charge Shot in succession, or charge to the fifth level to fire two Lv.03 Charge Shots. X can also charge Special Weapons.
Foot Parts	Desert Base Stage	Grants X the ability to Air Dash forwards. However, he cannot use both an Air Dash and Dash Jump in the same jump.

Mega Man Xtreme 2

The Second Armor returns on Laguz Island in Mega Man Xtreme 2. However, it has some major differences, as it borrows several abilities from the First Armor and Third Armor.

Parts	Location	Effect
Head Parts	Template:MMXIILink	Grants X the ability to destroy certain blocks by jumping into them from below, headbutting them.
Body Parts	Ocean Base Stage	Reduces all damage received by 1 point, and grants X the Giga Crush. Taking damage from enemy attacks fills its Weapon Energy; once the gauge is full, X can use the Giga Crush to damage all enemies on the screen.
Arm Parts	Hydroelectric Power Plant Stage	Grants X a fourth and fifth Charge Shot level, enabling the Double Charge Shot. By charging the X-Buster to the fourth level, X can fire a Lv.02 and a Lv.03 Charge Shot in succession, or charge to the fifth level to fire two Lv.03 Charge Shots. X can also charge Special Weapons.
Foot Parts	Template:MMXIILink	Grants X the Variable Air Dash, which lets him Air Dash either horizontally or vertically.

Mega Man X DiVE

In Mega Man X DiVE, Second Armor X appears as a playable Hunter Program. His Active Skills are Double Charge Shot and Giga Crush, which function similarly to their first appearance in Mega Man X2.

Other Game Appearances

• In CD versions of Mega Man X3, X equips the Second Armor to fight Sigma in the game's opening.
• In Tower of Saviors, Second Armor X is one of X's potential evolutions.
