Set 100 years after the original games, the story follows X, the last creation of Dr. Light whose free-willed programming and intelligence allows for countless other free-willed androids called reploids to be produced. When these reploids begin to rebel against the humans and are labeled mavericks as such, X decides to make up for his creations by joining maverick hunters while finding a peaceful solution to the crisis. Throughout the series, he is partnered by Zero, who usually acts as a mentor to him early on, and later Axl, a rookie hunter. Together, they go on to fight various groups of mavericks, most of whom are controlled by none other than the former leader of the maverick hunters, Sigma.
