Plot
Start of the first scenario.

Japan is being ravaged by bizarre and powerful giant monsters.

A reptilian creature called Baragon is creating earthquakes in an oil refinery, a high-speed pterosaur named Rodan is leaving sonic booms in his wake, a hideous blob of slime called Hedorah is feeding off of the city's toxic waste and growing larger every second, a giant caterpillar named Mothra is laying eggs in different parts of town, a terrible three-headed hydra named King Ghidorah is bringing fire to the skies, and Godzilla is plowing through everything around him. To make matters worse, a fleet of alien saucers has begun an invasion.

Only the Allied Defense Forces can stop them.

Monsters
  • Godzilla: The titular and most common monster, and one of the most powerful. If Godzilla seeks out an H-Bomb, he will end the game.
  • Baragon: A tunneling creature, his special ability is to dig underground and become invisible, but he can be detected by a radar car.
  • Rodan: A flying, highly mobile monster. Rodan can heal if he is over a volcano. Also, he will be weak if he's on the ground.
  • Hedorah: A monster made of polluted slime. In water he is invincible and almost always, heals.
  • King Ghidorah: A three-headed space dragon, possibly the most powerful monster ever.
  • Mothra: The moth monster, also appears in larva form. Initially an enemy, but in later missions becomes a friendly unit if the player finds its egg.
  • UFO: A UFO. Fires beams that can initially be reflected with the Super X2's laser, but in later missions is so powerful that it punches right through.
