You can find an uncanny X-Men walkthrough for The Uncanny X-Men on the NES, which has a listed guide and walkthrough. [\[1\]](https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/nes/563484-the-uncanny-x-men/faqs/19042?ref=idleweekend.net) If that is the copy you own, this article will point you to the right place to start.

The same name also belongs to a segment of [X-Men Legends II on PC](https://idleweekend.net/x-men-legends-2-walkthrough/), so the two are easy to mix up. This article covers that PC segment too, so you can tell which one you mean before you open a guide.

Start by deciding which version you are playing, then follow only the guide for that one. For the NES release, the walkthrough by DEngel on GameFAQs is the guide to open. [\[1\]](https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/nes/563484-the-uncanny-x-men/faqs/19042?ref=idleweekend.net)

## How do you match a walkthrough to your version?

Start with the platform in the guide's title, because that tells you which copy it was written for. The listing is titled The Uncanny X-Men - Guide and Walkthrough - NES, so it covers the NES release [\[1\]](https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/nes/563484-the-uncanny-x-men/faqs/19042?ref=idleweekend.net).

Next, check the author and date on the listing. This NES guide is by DEngel and is dated Feb 12, 2024 [\[1\]](https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/nes/563484-the-uncanny-x-men/faqs/19042?ref=idleweekend.net). The date shows when it was posted, so you can see whether it is recent before you rely on it.

The main rule is simple: only follow a guide whose platform matches the copy you own. If you are holding an NES cartridge, the NES guide is the right one. If your copy is on a different system, skip this listing and look for a guide whose title names that system.

Check the platform on the box or the store page before you start. It takes a minute, and it keeps you from following steps written for a different version.

## Where can you find a step-by-step walkthrough?

If you want a step-by-step walkthrough for The Uncanny X-Men on the NES, GameFAQs has one written for that exact game. [\[1\]](https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/nes/563484-the-uncanny-x-men/faqs/19042?ref=idleweekend.net)

Follow these steps to find it:

1. Open the NES listing for The Uncanny X-Men on GameFAQs.
2. Select the guide titled The Uncanny X-Men - Guide and Walkthrough - NES.
3. Read it one section at a time, and stop when you reach the part you are stuck on.

Reading in short chunks keeps you from spoiling the rest of the game. If you hit a tough stage, find the section that covers it, read only what you need, and then go back to your game. You do not have to read the whole guide before you start playing.

For example, say you cannot get past a stage. Open the guide, scroll to that stage's section, and read until you have the answer. Then close the guide and keep playing.

If you play on a laptop or have two screens, keep the guide open in a browser tab beside your game. That way you can switch back and forth without losing your place. Bookmark the listing page too, so you can return to it the next time you get stuck.

## What if you are stuck in X-Men Legends II instead?

If you are stuck in X-Men Legends II rather than the NES game, the full-game walkthrough is the one to use for PC. It covers The Uncanny X-Men segment in order, so you can follow it from the start of the mission to the point where you are stuck. Learn more in [X-Men Legends 2 Tips for Beginners](https://idleweekend.net/x-men-legends-2-tips-for-beginners/).

Read forward from the start of the segment instead of jumping to the middle. Each part picks up where the last one ends, so you get the setup you need before the fight you are facing. Reading in order also keeps you from spoiling later parts of the story.

Here is how to use it:

1. Open the full walkthrough for the PC game.
2. Find the section on The Uncanny X-Men segment.
3. Read one step at a time, and stop when you reach the part you are stuck on.

If you want the bigger picture, read the pillar guide, x-men legends ii rise of apocalypse walkthrough pc. It covers the whole PC game in order, from the opening missions to the final fight. Use it to see how this segment fits into the rest of the story, rather than to solve one spot.

## What should you do next?

Confirm your platform first, then open the walkthrough that matches it. If you are playing The Uncanny X-Men on the NES, use the NES guide. If you are playing The Uncanny X-Men segment inside X-Men Legends II on PC, use the PC walkthrough instead. A guide written for the wrong version sends you to steps that do not match your screen.

Once you have the right guide, go back to it at the exact point where you are stuck. Read only that section, try the step again, and move on once you are past it. Keep the guide open in a second window so you can return to the same spot without starting over.
