"Mega Man: The Freeze Cracker fires ice bullets, doesn't it?
Dr. Light: Yes, and the bullets will split when they hit the ground.
"
―Mega Man and Dr. Light, Mega Man 7

Freeze Cracker (フリーズクラッカー Furīzu Kurakkā) is Freeze Man's Special Weapon. When equipped with this weapon, Mega Man fires a shard of ice. If it hits a wall, it splits into six smaller shots. It can also be shot diagonally upwards or downwards. In his version, Freeze Man can fire the Freeze Cracker up or straight ahead; in this instance, Freeze Crackers create icicles on the ceiling or freeze their target, but do not explode into smaller shards in the latter case.

The Freeze Cracker can freeze certain enemies, and even the lava in Junk Man's stage and reveal a secret passage. In Cloud Man's stage, it can be shot at the second Tel Tel to change the rain to harmless snow (which Mega Man can use to his advantage by revealing the invisible bridges), and it can freeze the floating cloud platforms, causing the cloud portion to crumble away, and revealing the invisible platforms in a certain part of the stage right away without having to get close enough reveal them. In Turbo Man's stage and Wily Castle 2, it can be shot at the burners in a certain part of the stage to freeze its flames.

This weapon is the primary weakness of Slash Man and the secondary weakness of Burst Man; in the former's case, Slash Man will get frozen and will slide across his room before his body thaws out, and he will go right into dropping eggs on Mega Man.

Trivia[]

  • If Mega Man uses the Freeze Cracker on Freeze Man during the rematch with him in Wily Castle, Freeze Man freezes the game for a short period and makes his intro pose, making it look like he is taunting the player for using his own weapon against him. Afterwards, Freeze Man is healed by four units of energy.
  • Unusually, the official art for Mega Man's colors when using Freeze Cracker (as shown in the image above) almost resembles his standard colors. When using the Freeze Cracker the game however, Mega Man's colors are light blue-and-white. This may have been done to keep the two forms from being confused in-game.
    • The same problem applies to the Junk Shield's official artwork as well.
