The new game will herald the triumphant return of all the heroes from the first game, with the possible exception of the noble Man-Bot, whose whereabouts and status remain unknown. However, according to the game's story, Alche-Miss, the clairvoyant sorceress has been having nightmares that involve Man-Bot (perhaps born of her lingering feelings for the missing hero), while the Freedom Force is enlisted to thwart a scheme hatched by Nuclear Winter, the dastardly Soviet mutant who has somehow captured the Time Master (the chronologically empowered menace from the previous game) and traveled through time to steal away a cache of nuclear missiles (of Cuban Missile Crisis fame). However, in thwarting Nuclear Winter, the team finds that it gets double-crossed, and instead of returning to their present-day home of Patriot City, they return to a German military state. It seems that a new group of even more-dastardly villains has traveled back in time to World War II and imbued the German army with the mysterious "energy X" (the source of Freedom Force's power)--which allowed the Axis Forces to win the war. Now the Freedom Force must fight back against this new menace and somehow correct history.
