Two versions of Megaman Battle Network 5 for Game Boy Advance. THE BATTLE WAGES ON AS CAPCOMÂŽ ANNOUNCES MEGAMAN BATTLE NETWORK 5 TEAM PROTOMAN AND TEAM COLONEL FOR THE GAME BOY ADVANCE
E3, LOS ANGELES May 18, 2005â The handheld cyber battle resumes as CapcomÂŽ today confirmed plans to release Megaman Battle Network 5 in two versions - Team Protoman and Team Colonel for the Game BoyÂŽ Advance video game system. Emancipate the internet once and for all from the cyber menaces that await Megaman, his pal Lan and friends as players experience the most exciting âBattle Networkâ adventure yet. Building on the prior Megaman Battle Network games, the Protoman and Colonel versions will be distinctly enhanced with different enemies, characters, souls and battle chips. Megaman Battle Network 5 Team Protoman and Megaman Battle Network 5 Team Colonel are scheduled to be released in PAL territories this June.
Once month has passed since the battle ended with the Dark Chip Syndicate for the earthâs existence. Now an evil organization called the âNebulaâ is attempting to take complete control over the global internet. Now players must team up with other cyber heroes to liberate the Nebula-controlled areas of the internet and stop this malevolent organization.
In Megaman Battle Network 5, players must partake in an extensive liberating mission where they must defeat the cyber enemies that wait, while acquiring and using up to six Navi allies to help progress through the adventure. Each Battle Network version will have a set of specialized cohorts that can be obtained including characters from previous instalments of the series.
Working as a team will be crucial if you want to liberate the Nebula-controlled areas. Plug into flashbacks of stored digital data and images which will uncover information that may help resolve unanswered questions.
The âSoul Unisonâ system returns, allowing players to utilize the special abilities from the opponentsâ souls encountered in the game, enabling Megaman to transform and use these powers during battle. Furthermore, the tempting âDark Chipâ will re-emerge in the âChaos Unisonâ system. This attractive chip permits players to control the power of the darkness but the more times these chips are used, the more Megamanâs Net-Naviâs maximum hit points will dwindle.
Megaman Battle Network 5 includes the following:
⢠Liberation Turf Battle Missions â The battle structure is based on freeing Nebula controlled areas. By utilizing the abilities of each acquired ally to liberate each region, the field returns to normal.
⢠âChaos Unionâ system â Allows players to control the power of the darkness by uniting with a dark chip.
⢠Flashback scenariosâ Plug into the past to uncover useful information
⢠Distinct features for Team Protoman and Team Colonel
o Six distinct allies to befriend for a total of 12 Navi comrades
o Separate storylines in each game
o Six souls per game, for a total of 12 souls, that can be used in the âSoul Unisonâ system
o Assorted battle chips for each version
o Enemies that are unique to each title
