In the year 21XX...the 22nd Century, a golden age of robotics and technology emerged thanks to the discovery of a sleeping blue android inside a lone capsule in an abandoned laboratory found by the archaeologist and scientist Dr. Cain, gave birth to a new breed of robots dubbed reploids, intelligent humanoid robots with the incredible ability to think, feel and act on their own accord, however, none of them could compare to the sleeping robot who had been awakened from the capsule, for this blue android housed limitless potential and can think and feel more deeply than normal reploids and can grow and evolve as he fights, his name was Mega Man X.

However, as peaceful as the first few months of harmony among humans and robots were, it did not last, for even as dr cain used mega man X's design to give birth to the reploids, he couldn't comprehend the dangers of immorality upon the reploids as reploids started going berserk and committing violent acts of crime and destruction, as a deadly virus was infecting those reploids who were then dubbed, mavericks afterward dr. Cain, seeking to atone for his mistake, created an anti-maverick task force dubbed "maverick hunters" led by their commander sigma, who was one of the most advanced reploids of their time, with X among them as a B class hunter.

The maverick task force was victorious in numerous missions to destroy the Mavericks who seek the destruction of the earth,

however, garma's maverick Hunter unit located a secret laboratory and unearthed another capsule containing a Red, white and green Android who, upon awakening, slaughtered the maverick hunter unit. His name was Zero.

The maverick hunter commander himself, Sigma stepped forward to engage in a brutal showdown with Zero in which Sigma nearly lost until suddenly, zero's head crystal showing a W symbol disorienting him, Sigma taking this opportunity, threw one last defiant punch at zero's forehead shattering it completely and emerged the pyrrhic Victor, and requested zero be repaired and analyzed by dr Cain,

After reawakening, zero didn't show any more signs of his maverick behavior and placing his strength at the Maverick Hunter's command. He was enlisted into the 17th elite unit as an A-Class Hunter, where he became a mentor and best friend with mega man X, who was hesitant as a hunter but still willing to help.

.

In the next few days that followed, the maverick hunters continued to battle crime throughout Abel City under Sigma's command. Zero continued to mentor and comfort X in his times of hesitation due to being a pacifist at heart.

.

However, after a discussion with dr Cain, Sigma seemed to begin to change as the aftermath of his fateful battle with zero came in full swing. Though Sigma was designed to fight off the infection of the maverick virus, it didn't bend him to its will. The deadly virus merged with Sigma's programming, becoming one with his body and mind and emerged even stronger than before and with a new outlook on humanity, viewing it and the world as something holding back the true potential of reploids and thus, must be terminated.

Sigma's first act as the master of the Mavericks was to use a berserk mechanoid as a distraction for the hunters and then release ex hunter Vile from his imprisonment due to his violent behavior. After attacking X and Zero, Sigma launched all the missiles store in a missile base miles away from Abel city, causing widespread havoc and destroying many lives and property. In his rage, X snapped, tapping into his limitless potential and scarred Sigma before finally shutting down, zero barely surviving his injuries during the fight brought X back to Maverick Hunter HQ. Afterward, new commander Signals was made the new Commander. Sigma was condemned alongside vile as a menace to all humanity, thus making it mega man x's duty to fight them and the Mavericks who followed them.
