Mega Man in front of destructible blocks
Not to be confused with Appearing Blocks. |
Destructible blocks are obstacles in games from the original Mega Man series that are generally destructible with some form of Special Weapon other than the Mega Buster. Generally, these blocks are geometrical in appearance, and sometimes have a square pattern on them. Usually, the blocks open different paths or have helpful items like recovery items, Tanks, Bolts, and even extra lives behind them. In the Wily Tower game, the destructible blocks can only be destroyed by the weapon from the block's original game (so the blocks from Mega Man 2 can only be destroyed by the Crash Bombs, not the Hard Knuckle, for example).
Appearances[]
Mega Man Powered Up[]
Mega Man Powered Up has the Break Container (破壊コンテナ), a destructible block that has eight varieties. With one exception, each of the Break Containers are vulnerable to only one Special Weapon.
Guts Man can pull the Super Arm type blocks from the ground anytime when playing as him in New Style, being able to throw them or use them as platforms. The Thunder Beam can only destroy the Super Arm blocks in Old Style.

Mega Man 11[]

Mega Man 11 introduces an exploding variety of destructible blocks found only in Blast Man's stage and the second level of Gear Fortress. Mega Man can destroy these blocks by touching the red laser beams, knock a Shimobey into one, or by using Blazing Torch or Chain Blast. Unlike the other destructible blocks, the explosive variants act as temporary platforms before detonating. Also if they are nearby, a Fire Server can detonate the destructible blocks if their fire-based attack lands on a block.
Mega Man X series[]
Destructible Blocks appear in the Mega Man X series, functioning identically to the previous series' destructible blocks.
