X-Men Legends II: Rise of Apocalypse is an action role-playing game and a sequel to X-Men Legends. The player controls a party of four characters, though only one at a time can be controlled directly. Besides switching the characters for combat purposes, the player is often obliged to do so, because some of the tasks in the game require the specific abilities of a certain mutant. For example, Iceman can put out the fire, Magneto can generate a metal bridge across a gap, etc. Most of the time, however, is spent in combat, collecting loot and acquiring experience points. Unlike the first game, items dropped by enemies are random. The character will level up, become stronger, and learn new skills. The player can opt to allocate all the experience and skill points manually.

Rise of Apocalypse is a sequel to X-Men: Legends. The N-Gage version is still an isometric four-character strong action RPG where all have got a set of unique passive and active abilities, but now there are more characters to choose from, including the past villains from the other side such as Toad or Scarlet Witch and some of the new heroes can fly too. Rise of Apocalypse is slightly less linear with more optional objectives. Now there's a currency system which means you can also purchase equipment, mostly usable items, like smelling salts or energy packs in the camp, though there are also equipable items such as belts, body armour and gloves. The game could be played by up to four players online, and as a new feature, there's a turn-based player versus player mode in smaller locations, where more characters could be purchased with in-game currency. Additional quests could be unlocked through Nokia's online service called Arena.
