Plot

Last Legion UX takes place in a world split into four continents, each based around one of the four elements. The world is governed by the global organization Union IV, which has developed peacekeeping mech suits called Legions that are powered by special elemental ore called PowerStones. A terrorist group known as Light Raid takes control of several Legions and declares their intentions for world domination, beginning a war that lasts for many years.

In the year 2083, Light Raid hijacks a Union IV time portal facility, sending eight of their Legions back in time 4500 years to the beginning of civilization, hoping to alter the past and secure their control of the world. To stop their plans, Union IV sends Legion pilot Colonel Reddi back in time with orders to destroy Light Raid's Legions and preserve the future.^[1]^[2]
