Wily Citadel is the second World Boss stage in World 3: The Megaverse.
Layout[]
As the last of World 3's fortress-type stages, Wily Citadel is fairly short compared to the other stages located in the world. It contains a number of World 3's less common enemies and uses a large number of Countbombs, including a small area where Countbombs serve as the only solid ground above a bottomless pit, forcing the player to move quickly to avoid their foothold exploding beneath them.
Near the end of the stage, the player will find themselves in the infamous "Portal Chamber" found in almost all 2D Mega Man games. There are 8 teleporters, each of which leads to a unique Robot Master battle not seen anywhere else in The Megaverse. The Portal Chamber also serves as an endurance challenge, meaning that the player must beat all 8 "Portal Masters" here without dying or be forced to fight all of them again (although an extra life is provided beforehand to prevent the player from running out of lives). The player will have to defeat the following Robot Masters (in no particular order):
- Sword Man (Mega Man 8)
- Mercury (Mega Man V - Game Boy)
- Enker (Mega Man I - Game Boy)
- Buster Rod G (Mega Man: The Wily Wars)
- Sonic Man (Mega Man - DOS)
- Magic Man (Mega Man & Bass)
- Konro Man (Mega Man & Bass 2: Challenger From the Future)
- Commando Man (Mega Man 10)
After all eight Masters have been defeated, a path to the final checkpoint will open up. Inside, the player will enter one last teleporter, which will transfer them to the boss room. From there, the player will confront Dr. Wily, who serves as the World Boss of World 3.
