As Mega Man, you once again have to save the world from Dr. Wily and his eight brand-new robot masters.

You start the game with three lives. If your life energy gauge reaches zero, you hit certain deadly objects or fall into a pit, you will lose one of your lives. If you lose all of your lives, it’s game over!

After you clear the eight robot masters' stages, Dr. Wily's stage will appear and you will have to fight him.
