Armor Soldier (アーマーソルジャー Āmā Sorujā) is a military Reploid served as the lowest rank soldier from Mega Man X and Mega Man Maverick Hunter X, assisting Sigma's rebellion by using a Ride Armor to cause destruction.[1]

Armor Soldiers appear in Chill Penguin's stage, Sting Chameleon's stage, and the second Sigma Stage. If X approaches an Armor Soldier's spawn point without a Ride Armor, it will be standing nearby its own Ride Armor, looking back and forth for targets. It is possible in this instance for X to dash quickly and steal their Ride Armor, or destroy it outright with a Charge Shot. If its Ride Armor is stolen, it will attack by standing still and firing occasional buster shots. If X approaches an Armor Soldier with a Ride Armor, it will appear inside its own Ride Armor.

Other appearances[]

  • In Mega Man X DiVE, an Armor Soldier appears in Sigma's introduction from the Character menu. Sigma grabbed "X"'s head and stabbed him in the chest, it is revealed this is actually an Armor Soldier somehow with copy ability.
  • Armor Soldiers appeared as enemies in Project X Zone and Project X Zone 2, where they are named Ride Armors.
  • Armor Soldier appeared as an unit card in TEPPEN.

Other media[]

Rockman X manga[]

Two Armor Soldiers piloted Ride Armors in the area controlled by Chill Penguin. One of them made a surprise attack to X, nearly defeating him, but X managed to defeat the pilot and took over the Ride Armor to fight the other Armor Soldier. During the fight, X left his Ride Armor and pointed the X-Buster to the soldier, but offered him a chance to live if he abandoned Sigma. The soldier accepted and escaped, while X destroyed the Ride Armors.

More Armor Soldiers are later seen with other Mavericks surrounding X and Zero in the forest that was controlled by Sting Chameleon, who was just destroyed by X.

  • Armor Soldiers matching different color Ride Armor are also different, and soldiers with green Ride Armor are blue eye and body darker.
    • In the Project X Zone series, both have red eye, but the soldiers driving the red Ride Armor are darker.
    • In the Mega Man Maverick Hunter X, with the unification of the design of the Ride Armor, they no longer have differences. In addition, they are no longer one-eyed, but use the same design as Hoganmer.
