Mega Man Zero 4 is a video game created by Capcom and Inti Creates for the Game Boy Advance in 2005. It's the fourth and final installment in the Mega Man Zero series, before continuing in the Mega Man ZX Grand theft auto 2 steam key 2017. series.
Dr. Weil still rules over Neo Arcadia with an iron fist. This forces Neo Arcadians to flee their homes and try to establish a new colony in the wastelands, finding New Eden Area Zero (the crash site of the Eurasia colony from Mega Man X5). Zero learns of Operation Ragnarok, a military operation where Weil plans to obliterate all inhabitable places like Area Zero so that humans would stop running away from Neo Arcadia, and decides to thwart Weil's evil plans.
The game introduces the Zero Knuckle, a weapon that lets Zero steal other enemies' weapons and use them for himself.

This game provides examples of:
- Astral Finale: The game ends up with Zero breaking in to the Kill Sat Ragnarok and trying to destroy it from within.
- Background Boss: Carnage Force 0, Hell the Giant and Randam Bandam.
- Big Bad: Dr. Weil continues to be the main antagonist and leader of Neo Arcadia after setting himself up the chain of command in the previous game.
- Bittersweet Ending: Sure, the bad guy is killed and the world is saved and peace is restored but..the ending cutscene starts off with Zero's survival in deep doubt. Ciel runs off to a hill to cry her heart out in peace. She then regains her composure and looks hopefully to the sky, telling Zero to come back soon..cue a shot of his broken helmet and strewn mechanical parts in a crater somewhere.
- The Cameo: All eight of Weil's numbers from Mega Man Zero 3 make brief appearances as projections for one of Dr. Weil's attacks.
- The Cavalry Arrives Late: The Resistance arrives too late to rescue all Neo Arcadians from Ragnarok's laser fire, and could only scour the ruins for a scant few survivors.
- Colony Drop: Late in the game, Ragnarok begins descending towards Area Zero thanks to Dr. Weil.
- Cyberspace: The storyline requires Zero to enter one to disable the network security system of Ragnarok.
- Damn You, Muscle Memory!: The hanging ledge ability from X5 to X6 returns here. Unlike those games, where dashing while hanging is possible, Zero remains starionary (unless the 'ledge' itself was moving) and must jump to move around.
- A Day in the Limelight: This is the first game in the Zero series (and really, in any game of the original timeline) that actually gives humans the spotlight to see what their side of all the Robot Wars is. The result is, as expected, decidedly mixed: Humans are shown to be quite distrustful and even hateful of Reploids, blaming them for constantly starting wars that have ultimately ravaged the planet and made life for everyone difficult. It's the reason why they've refused to let Reploids into their settlement in Area Zero and distrust the Resistance despite being helped by them. There is a bit of a point to that, but they are also woefully misinformed on many things, such as ignoring how the current Robot War was sparked because the Neo Arcadian regime prioritized human safety and comfort over Reploids to the point of being willing to genocide the latter on flimsy excuses, that their 'hero X' was actually a delusional and woefully inept Knight Templar copy who started it all, and the fact that humans actually had it very well off in the current Crapsack World as a result until Dr. Weil (a human himself) decided to make life a hellhole for everyone now. Zero observes this and isn't very impressed with them as a result, several times calling them out on being such stuck-up and ungrateful bastards. At the same time, the humans are capable of seeing past their prejudices and ultimately come to realize how wrong their viewpoint really is.
- Devil Complex: Right before you fight him, Dr. Weil declares 'Ware ga akuma da!' ('I am the Devil'!).
- Difficult, but Awesome: The Junk Armor is all about this. It takes a bit of effort to forge (assuming you know the required parts), especially since the Junk Body part requires creating an S-Crystal (meaning if you're going for all the Sub-Tanks you'll need to make at least three of them), and it only shows off its full power when you don't have your Cyber Elf equipped. And once you do get it working, its lowered defense coupled with your small natural health bar means one hit can eat half your life (roughly 8 units). However, it alsoboosts Zero's attack power to the point you can shred even bosses in seconds, and 4 is the easiest game in the series with which to obtain four Sub Tanks (each of which can hold up to 32 units of spare health meaning you can recharge effectively sixteen times). Since the game encourages playing Zero fast to avoid taking hits and dealing damage anyways, the Junk Armor effectively becomes a nigh unstoppable ultimate boss and mini-boss killer when in the right hands capable of ending fights fast and preventing dragging out that might result in taking more damage the 'normal' way.
- Earn Your Happy Ending: While it's not fully happy since Zero, X, and the Four Guardians gave their lives in the process, by the end peace is finally restored between humans and robots alike, and the world seems to be in the brightest place it's been for centuries, before Wily started the entire succession of conflicts with his campaign of world domination. As the Mega Man ZX series shows, this is the first time such a happy ending actually sticks. Area Zero will save the planet, the Ciel System will solve all energy crises, and Zero's heroism will keep Maverick incidents at an all-time low until well past the point the planet has recovered to an even greater extent than where humans were at at the beginning of the Mega Man (Classic) series.
- Easy Level Trick:
- Removing the wires underneath SubDesert Core with the Z-Knuckle will disable its laser attack.
- Randam Bandam has an attack where it disappears into the walls and the panels open up one by one to fire at Zero. The Tractor Shot will absorb all these shots (protecting Zero in the process) and can be used against Randam for a decent amount of damage.
- The End of the World as We Know It: Double Subversion: the Colony Drop really isn't going to bring out the aforementioned effect; however, seeing as the target of the drop is a New Eden area in a Crapsack World, it arguably comes close.
- 'Get Back Here!' Boss: Almost half of the eight bosses use a disappearing trick of some sort as part of their strategy, leaving very little opening for Zero to attack. This can be worked around with two of them (Mandrago and Kraken) who are vulnerable to the Z-Knuckle in this state.
- Grand Finale: To the Mega Man Zero corner of the Mega Man timeline.
- Green Aesop: Plot here is protecting the last trace of nature from a villain bent on making sure that his empire is the only habitable place left on Earth.
- Helpful Mook: A variant with the helicopter enemies. They provide aid via their propellers; when the main body is destroyed Zero can use the propeller to fly upward. One use for this is to reach the Sub Tank in Noble Mandrago's level.
- Irony
- The site of a major disaster a hundred years ago is now one of the newest safe havens in a desolate world.
- The one who put an end to the entire war is the greatest creation of the very madman who started it in the first place. The revelation in Mega Man 11 that Wily initially wanted to make heroes of robots before he became consumed by hatred for Dr. Light adds even more layers of irony on top of it, as the robot he created to help fulfill his petty revenge ended up becoming the kind of hero he wanted to make in the end.
- Item Crafting: Zero makes customization chips out of 'recipes' of enemy parts.
- Leitmotif: The game has one which effectively acts as the game's 'theme song', and appears throughout in tracks like 'Holy Land ~ (Area Zero Camp)', 'Esperanto ~ (Intro Stage 2)', as well as the ending themes. It takes many cues from the ending theme of Mega Man X5.
- Kill Sat: What Ragnarok turns out to be, a giant space station with the purpose of razing any location below it with a powerful Wave Motion Gun.
- Meaningful Background Event: Earth gradually grows more visible in the backdrop during the final level.
- Mecha-Mooks: The Variants, which replace the Pantheons used by Neo Arcadia's armed forces from the first three games.
- 'Pan Up to the Sky' Ending: The ending and credits roll involves a nightsky with a swarm of pieces of Ragnarok.
- Painful Pointy Pufferfish: There's a robotic pufferfish enemy that appears in water areas. They inflate and deflate when Zero is close to shoot out spikes in multiple directions.
- Power Stereotype Flip: Despite being a lightning user, Mino Magnus is slow both in thought, speech and movement.
- Sliding Scale of Gameplay and Story Integration: A bit into the deliberate type. Area Zero's environmental control system (which is what enables the region around it to grow sustainable life) is also used by the Resistance to manipulate the eight main levels of the game into becoming harder or easier for Zero to conquer.
- Stealthy Mook: In the Hibernation Chamber stage, if you set the weather into snowing, some of the Variant Claw mooks may try to hide beneath the snow pile and ambush you when you get close.
- Trash the Set: Craft obliterates Neo Arcadia near the end.
- You Are Too Late: Zero was literally one room away from Ragnarok's control room before Craft fires on Neo Arcadia.
- Your Princess Is in Another Castle!: Let's see: Craft has just destroyed Neo Arcadia, the symbol of Reploid oppression in the series, with Ragnarok, taking Dr. Weil with it. Before Craft could fire for a second time, Zero puts a stop to him. It's over, right? Nope, since Dr. Weil survives, and cues the Colony Drop.
