Storyline

Set in the distant future of the year 2633 A.D., the story pits humanity against the sinister Red Falcon Organization, which has established a base on the fictional Galuga archipelago near New Zealand as part of a plot to wipe out the human race. To stop them, the Earth Marine Corps dispatches two elite commandos from its Contra unit, a group specializing in guerrilla warfare: Bill Rizer and Lance Bean. The pair are sent deep into the enemy-held island to tear apart Red Falcon's forces and uncover the true nature of the mysterious alien entity secretly controlling them, before its plans can doom the world.
