It seems the world cannot get enough of Lan and his Mega Man.

CAPCOM(r) ANNOUNCES MEGA MAN BATTLE NETWORK(r) 6

CYBEAST GREGAR AND CYBEAST FALZAR FOR THE GAME BOY(r) ADVANCE

SUNNYVALE, Calif. - February 27, 2006 - Capcom*, a powerhouse in the

multi-billion dollar video game industry, today announced Mega Man

Battle Network(r) 6 in two versions - Cybeast Gregar and Cybeast Falzar

for the Game Boy(r) Advance video game system. The popular net battle

series reaches a dramatic climax as familiar heroes, Lan and Mega Man,

find themselves on unfamiliar terrain both in the real and cyber worlds.

They will face the mightiest threats the series has ever seen but also

wield the greatest power ever available. Capcom plans to release Mega

Man Battle Network 6 Cybeast Gregar and Mega Man Battle Network 6

Cybeast Falzar across North America in Q2 2006.

In Mega Man Battle Network 6, Lan's father has received a job transfer

and the family moves to Cyber City, a town known for conducting various

technological experiments. Lan will meet new people and build new

friendships in the real world while Mega Man befriends helpful Navis and

encounters dangerous new enemies on the virtual plane. Together they

will face threats far more powerful and perilous than they ever have

before.

A long time ago, two ancient creatures with unimaginable power ravaged

the net. These two behemoths, called "Cybeasts," clashed against each

other with such force that the entire virtual landscape was changed

forever. One embodied the form of a vicious wolf, with massive fangs

and horrific howls that reached far and wide. The other was a ferocious

bird with razor sharp claws and immense wings that flapped mightily,

blowing over everything in its path. After their last known battle, a

giant crater was all that remained and it was named the Underground,

where they have lain in slumber... until now. Through the actions of a

mysterious foe, they have been awakened and unleashed upon the net.

Mega Man is able to intervene and manages to successfully contain one of

the beasts within him.

In addition to the shifting story, new features change up the gameplay.

A new "Cross System" allows Mega Man to utilize the special power of

allies in battle. Mega Man will encounter several "Link Navis" along

the way which, when defeated, will lend their own cross ability that can

be used in battle. Though very useful, each has a particular weakness.

Another powerful advantage is the "Beast Out" system, resulting from

Mega Man's absorption of the powerful Cybeasts. The option to use the

ancient monster's power during battle will become available, offering a

boost in speed, ability to rapid fire Buster shots, double a Battle

Chip's attack power and more. While a Cross is equipped, Mega Man can

also Beast Out, combining the forces of these two systems to maximize

the power of the Crosses even further. However, the use of the Beast

Out system is very limited and if Mega Man becomes fatigued, he may

succumb to an uncontrollable overdrive mode called "Beast Over." In

this state, Mega Man will be very powerful for a short period of time,

but then when he is released from this mode, he will be left in a very

weakened state, close to dying.

Mega Man Battle Network 6 includes the following features:

  • New town, new storyline!

  • "Cross System" - defeat Link Navis and gain their special

    "Cross" ability which Mega Man can use in battle

  • "Beast Out" powers - allows players to use the abilities of a

    formidable Cybeast creature

  • Combine both Cross and Beast Out systems for incredible power

    possibilities!

  • Game Link(r) Cable and wireless adapter compatible functions

    o Trade programs and Battle Chips

    o Compare records and have Net battles with your friends

  • Distinct features for Cybeast Gregar and Cybeast Falzar

  • Five distinct Link Navis aid Mega Man in each version, for a

    total of 10

  • Assorted Battle Chips for each version

  • Each Cybeast is the final boss for the two versions

  • Combinations of Cross and Beast Out systems vary between the two

    versions

    o Different strategies for winning - with unique powers available

    and different enemies players face in each game, the strategy for

    completing them will change
