If you've finished the game already and want a quick overview on what else there is to do, you'll find everything here. Mega Man X8 features three difficulty settings: Easy, Normal & Hard (selected when you start a new game). The final three bosses have health bars just under the entire width of the screen.Enemies exhibit stronger attacks and defense (such as the floating turrets shooting beams rather than small energy balls).Bosses will engage their Overdrives with half their health lost.Watch extra cutscenes after the final Vile battle and during the final Sigma battle.All enemies are at standard health and attack level.Can't bring developed chips into a New Game + session.The game will end upon defeating (final) Sigma, with a teaser after the credits of the final battle against Lumine.Can't unlock the Ultimate Armor, Zero's Black Armor, Axl's White Armor or the Σ Blade through selecting New Game +.Can't fight Cut Man in Optic Sunflower's stage.Enemies and mini-bosses (including the Crab Mechaniloid) are much weaker with respect to Normal mode.Many chips won't ever be available to develop.You'll have a bundle of chips already developed, and there won't be any Rare Metals to find.Differences experienced between the three in gameplay and cutscenes are:
Much like X7 you'll have two characters to choose before tackling a mission (except the inital Noah's Park run-through). Once X recovers new armor suits, you'll have the option of using and customizing them (in the Neutral Armor's case) or sticking with normal X without armor equipped. Upon selecting your team, you'll have the option of choosing one of three navigators (or none) to see you through the mission. Alia will give general hints of stage layouts and enemy intel, while Layer primarily gives hints of enemy & boss characteristics and weaknesses, finally Pallette will give hints of alternate routes or hidden areas within stages. Once you've unlocked the navigators as playable characters (see below) press Special Weapon (default Triangle on PS2 and S on PC) on the character select screen to view them. Note that you can't select a mission navigator when using one of them, and all dialog scenes between the Hunters and bosses will be skipped if using a navigator.
Press the Character Change button (default L2 on PS2 and F on PC) at any time to switch between characters, using it in times of need such as when caught by a hostile to break free.
