Plot

It is the year 2016 (shortly after the events of ). Just when everyone thought peace had finally settled on the world, a strange series of biological events started to occur. The world was shocked by a series of earthquakes and, concurrently, plants throughout the world began to die. As news reports began to flood televisions across the globe about these catastrophes, the infamous Dr. Wily made an appearance on TV, shocking the world. He announced that he was somehow behind these events and that unless the populace cooperate and give in to his demands the world would soon be doomed! The evil Dr. Wily comes to investigate the comet. However, little did everyone know that Dr. Wily was being forced to cooperate with a group of invaders from outer-space who called themselves the Constellation Droids. These powerful Robot Masters, all named after the twelve signs of the Zodiac, except for their leaders, Luna and Apollo, had taken over Wily's lab and forced the evil scientist to cooperate with them under threat of death.

Apollo and Luna introduce the Droids while making a pact with Wily. Dr. Light, renowned robotics engineer and pacifist, once again called on Mega Man to go after the powerful Constellation Droids and the evil Dr. Wily. However, Duo, a member of the Intergalactic Police Force who had helped Mega Man during the "evil energy crisis," returned to Earth to assist with the take-down of the Constellation Droids...

Dr. Light's lab after being destroyed by the Constellation Droids. Wily announces to the world that he is working with the Constellation Droids. Mega Man, Auto, Eddie, the newly-rescued Proto Man, Fan, and several others are forced to bring the Constellation Droids off of their high-horses. Once Luna and Apollo are defeated, however, they discover that the Droids came to Earth because they thought that mankind was destroying the planet through its pollution and destructive ways. However, after their defeat, they come with Rock and friends to Light Labs, where they talk with one another and discover that the virus that was destroying plant life was created by none other than Dr. Wily! In fact, Wily had known of the existence of the Droids and had engineered the virus because he knew the Droids would come to Earth in order to "solve" mankind's problem. Thus, the Droids decide to help Mega Man in the fight against Dr. Wily in an attempt to bring the evil scientist to justice before returning to whence they came.
