Story
The theme for this game is said to be many years after the 'Live Metal Model V (Biometal W)' incident in the previous game. Hunters roam the ruins looking for lost technology, where wild machines live.

Main protagonists
The main protagonists are Ashe and Grey (names may change).

Grey
Grey, the male hero, 14 years old. Grey has been in cryogenic sleep for an unknown period of time. He is awoken in the middle of a battle, not knowing anything about himself. Pandora tells him that his name is Grey, and that he is a 'failed Rockman' and attacks him saying 'I will dispose of the finished product'. Grey escapes the laboratory, armed with a weapon obtained from a dead hunter. He has tube-like appendages coming from his back.

Ashe
Ashe, the female hero, 15 years old. Ashe is a ruin hunter. After receiving a mission from 'Legion', the main government of the world, she goes to hunt down an illegal hunter who has stolen the Live Metal Model A. During this mission, Ashe encounters Prometheus, who also wants Live Metal Model A. Ashe challenges Prometheus to a fight between him and her companions. but is quickly defeated.



Live Metal Model A
A new Live Metal has been revealed: Model A. It is rumored to contain Axl's persona. This Live Metal was excavated by an illegal hunter. It activates when the hero is cornered by Pandora (when as Grey) or Prometheus (when as Ashe), transforming him/her into the powerful Rockman Model A. This Rockman can gain experience from every battle and appears to have a copy ability similar to Axl's, as well as dual handguns (another similar trait). When in Model A, wall-jumping and dashing abilities become available.

Gameplay
New features of gameplay when compared to the original ZX game include a homing shot and the ability to carry weapons without a Live Metal.
