Trivia
- X-Men is one of the few video games in history which requires the use of the Mega Drive's reset button in order to progress through a certain point in the game. This means the game is impossible to beat when played on systems (or emulators) which lack a soft reset feature of some description.
- The game can't be completed on the lowest difficulty level as it stops after stage 3
