| ~ Sigma explaining his desire to further robot evolution before launching missiles on Abel City, killing thousands. |
In Maverick Hunter X, a reboot of the original game with an original continuity, Sigma reprises his role as the main villain and his new backstory is told in The Day of Sigma short. In this continuity, Sigma is established as revolting against humans of his own will due to a desire to further reploid evolution,
Starting out as a heroic Maverick Hunter, dedicated to protecting humans and reploid alike from Mavericks, reploids gone rogue. After a talk with his creator, Dr. Cain about the potential of reploids to evolve, Sigma became obsessed with reploids reaching their true potential and hastening that potential, seeing humans as holding reploids back.
To that end, Sigma arranged to create a disaster by hiring criminals to sabotage robot constructs to go berserk and breaking out the dangerous reploid criminal, Vile from prison, endangering humans and reploids alike. Creating a vast army of rebellious reploids, composed of both robots that believe in his cause such as Flame Mammoth, and enslaved maverick hunters such as Storm Eagle, Sigma strives to destroy the human's main sanctuary, Abel city.
Storming a military base loaded with deadly missiles, Sigma is confronted by his old maverick hunter comrades, X and Zero. Ignoring X and Zero's attempt to reason with him to stop his plans, Sigma ignores their pleas and engages them in combat. While Zero manages to scar Sigma, he is ultimately defeated as a body shield by Sigma, who dares X to shoot him. X puts down his weapons and again begs Sigma not to launch the missiles, pointing out that their creator, Dr. Cain will be killed.
Sigma responds only by coldly saying sacrifices must be made for evolution, launching the missiles at Abel city anyhow. The attack kills thousands of humans and reploids. Sigma laughs over the wreckage and publicly announces his campaign to wipe out humanity.
Personality[]
In Maverick Hunter X, Sigma is depicted as darker than his prior incarnation, as opposed to being possessed by the Maverick virus as in the original game and attempting to make a paradise for reploids as in the original. In Maverick Hunter X, Sigma's crimes are committed of his free will, and he is perfectly willing to enslave reploids to join his cause, all to see his selfish desire to see the potential of Reploids. Overall, he is substantially more villainous than his original incarnation.
