Reformed Mavericks form an utopia near the scientist (named Dopple Town) and lived peacefully before they suddenly go berserk and cause mayhem. Set sometime after the events of Mega Man X2 (where X and the rebuilt Zero defeat the Maverick Sigma for the second time), the Maverick rebellion becomes neutralized due to the technology of Reploid scientist Dr.
It is the last game in the franchise to feature the original art and gameplay style of Mega Man X (as well as the password system). The third game in the Mega Man X series (and the sequel to the Mega Man X2), players control android Mega Man X and, for the first time, his Reploid ally Zero (who can be called in to deal with tough situations thanks to his energy sword).
Mega Man X3 (known in Japan as Rockman X3) is a side-scrolling action platformer developed and published by Capcom for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System on January 1996.
