In the year 20XX, Dr. Wily has once again risen to TakeOverTheWorld. This time, he's using a new strain of [[VideoGame/MegaMan8 Evil Energy]] to corrupt eight Robot Masters. As Dr. Light upgrades Mega Man in order for him to stand a chance against the new threat, a scientist named Dr. Nikola Remir appears, claiming to be an expert on Evil Energy. Meanwhile, Bass is upset that Wily is underutilizing him yet again. As he's already powerful enough to take on the Robot Masters himself, he goes on his own quest to prove himself to Wily once and for all.
