Uranus Stage is a stage that appeared in Mega Man V that has Uranus as the boss.
Description[]
Being one of the second four stages, it is located on another world and will not regenerate Mega Man's weapon energy after completion. Uranus's stage takes place inside (and sometimes outside) large Egyptian-themed ruins, with a few different types of hazards. The most recurring of which are rotating platforms, though they rotate towards the camera. This means that if Mega Man stands on them for too long, he will eventually fall through them. Certain rooms also have platforms that scroll left and right from gaps in the wall, in a similar manner to the ones seen in Wily Stage 3 from Mega Man 3. In addition to having a high amount of P-Chips, this is the most lucrative stage when it comes to E-Tank collecting, as there are two big E-Tanks, a Mini E-Tank, and Eddie can also provide Mega Man with an E-Tank.

Valuable pickups to look out for:
P-Chips: A total of 40 P-Chips (5 large) can be found and collected within this stage.
E-Tank: When Mega Man first enters the ruins, there is an upper area sealed off by blocks that only Break Dash can destroy, though Rush is also needed to reach it. This area has the pickup on the far left in plain sight, and Mega man simply has to traverse a rotating platform to get it.
Eddie: Appears on his own after the first two rooms with scrolling platforms. Eddie will randomly provide a big health energy, a big weapon energy, a 1-UP, or an E-Tank. If the player does not like what he provides, Mega Man can simply leave and re-enter the room using the ladders.
Mini E-Tank: In the next room right after Eddie. It is on an upper area along with a big P-Chip. Rush is first needed to reach this area, then Mega Man needs to slide under 2 spikes in a row to get them. Alternatively, he can use an enhanced Mega Arm to grab them without having to slide under the spikes.
- Crystal: Right after the room with the Mini E-Tank. There is an upper area sealed off by blocks that only Break Dash can destroy, though Rush is also needed to reach it. This area has the crystal on the right side, and Mega Man needs to traverse a rotating platform to get it, though he also can't jump into the spikes right above it.
1-UP: In plain sight in the second outside section. This pickup along with a big P-Chip are tucked inside a small ditch. Mega Man can simply jump to them, but he will have to do a pixel perfect "2-tile" jump in order to get out. Alternatively, he can use an enhanced Mega Arm to grab them without having to get inside the small area.
E-Tank: Shortly after the second outside section. this pickup is in plain sight in an upper area. Mega Man has to use Rush to reach a rotating platform, then time a slide so he can move under a spike to claim the pickup. Alternatively, he can use an enhanced Mega Arm to grab them without having to slide under the spikes.
