Mega Man Maverick Hunter X is an action-platforming video game that was developed and published by Capcom for the PlayStation Portable (PSP); it is a remake of the 1993 video game Mega Man X, which was originally released for the Super NES and is the first game in the eponymous series. Players control an advanced, mechanical being called X through eight stages as he faces enemy forces and obtains new powers to defeat the strongest bosses. An alternative mode allows the player to control the villain Vile, who has his own weapons.
