In fact, a lot of the new additions in X2 became staple features in the following sequels, like the Hover Bike, Magna Centipede's computer stage, Flame Stag's volcano stage, and the X-Hunters. X2 really took the series to a higher level.
Mega Man X2 is actually my favorite in the X series. Amusingly, while the first game had a secret hadouken move to find which could annihilate enemies in record time, this one includes the natural other option - a shoryuken! Another minor addition is that aside from the battle mechs from the first game, some stages now also include hoverbikes you can ride, but apart from the latter being lighter and more maneuverable there's not a huge difference between the two. Beating them all will affect the ending, so it's something to look out for. In addition to collectibles, three of the Maverick Hunter stages also contain hidden rooms where you get to do battle with three special bosses called the X-Hunters. There's only really one significant change this time around. A slightly darker storyline, the ability to dash and wall jump as well as lots of hidden collectibles, like reserve energy tanks, life extensions and armour upgrades that improve or grant new abilities, such as the ability to dash in mid-air. X2 still has all the unique features that set its series apart from the originals.
