"Escape the space trap!"
―Stage tagline, Mega Man X5

Planetarium Stage (プラネタリウムステージ Puranetariumu Sutēji)[1] is Dark Necrobat's stage in Mega Man X5. It is a planetarium and space laboratory that appears to be located in southern Egypt.

Description[]

X5 Planetarium Preview

The first portion of the stage is dark and has affected gravity. Batton Bones will spawn out of thin air, making the platforming unpredictable. Eventually, the player will have to get on a moving platform that carries them through an obstacle course. Upon reaching the end, the Maverick Hunters will teleport into a brighter area with pillars that flip the stage vertically, reversing gravity. After traversing these gravity puzzles, the door to Dark Necrobat is just up ahead.

Trivia[]

  • The July prototype of Megaman X5 features stage differences:[2]
    • Both the first and second half of the stage feature alternate backgrounds. The first half possesses more brighter stars, and an alternate purple black hole background. These background renders appear to cause the game to lag. In part 2, the background has more stars than the final build.
    • Electric traps replace Spark Gunners.
