Dr. Wily refuses to accept defeat even after his previous schemes crumble at the hands of Dr. Light's creation, Mega Man. Rather than give up his quest for global conquest, the mad scientist covertly reprograms several of Dr. Light's industrial robots, transforming them into weapons for his renewed assault. With peace hanging by a thread, Mega Man must venture into the heart of the city to confront Wily's corrupted machines and dismantle his latest bid for world domination before it spirals beyond control.
