Story

E.X. Troopers tells of the fight between the snow pirates and the Akrid aliens on E.D.N. III. The game's protagonist is Bren Turner, a young man who's come to the academy (the game has a school theme) from E.D.N. II. There are also characters such as TeeKee, a female snow pirate who has the ability to communicate with the Akrid, and Gingira, a Vital Suit that's loaded with next-generation AI and can communicate with its pilot. Gingira calls Bren "Master."

The E.D.N. III planet has three bases, each with unique traits. Players select one of these to serve as their base of operations. The three bases figure into the story, as while Bren comes from one base, other members of the academy come from different bases. The story is told through "manga demo" cut scenes (similar to the PlayStation Vita game Gravity Rush).

Trivia

• Using the code 729443 at one of the three NEVEC bases unlocks the Rathalos Armor from Monster Hunter for use with Bren.
