In a live-action intro, Rick and John celebrate their completion of Mega Man X7, and remark that there are only ten games left in the series. Rick introduces Command Mission, noting its bizarre placement in the timeline of the series, the slight changes in art style, the premise of the game's story, and the characters. John quickly leaves upon learning that the game is an RPG, leaving Rick to finish introducing it. In-game, Rick and John watch the intro and opening cutscenes before John takes control of X in the Lagrano Ruins. He slowly climbs the area, picking up items and learning the game's battle mechanics through a number of random encounters along the way.

John disables the security on the third floor, only to be confronted by a guard and forced into a battle. After defeating them, he learns about Force Metal and uses a sub-tank to heal himself before heading up to the fourth floor. There, he finds some more items, saves, then meets up with Zero, who joins the party. Immediately following this, a boss named Hippopressor attacks. The boss comes equipped with a Shark Missile capable of dealing large amounts of damage; John destroys it, along with the boss's head, before finishing the battle. Afterwards, John heads back to the save point, and equips some Force Metal on Zero. He finds that the door there is still locked, meaning he needs to head to the other side of the boss room.
8593"The Hedgehog?"22:30JohnRick, Ben, Lindsay13 June 2017 (2017-06-13)
Ben and Lindsay unsuccessfully attempt to complete a "Which Hogwarts house is your cat in?" quiz as John continues to head through the Lagrano Ruins, fighting several random encounters as he heads towards the fifth floor. At the top, a cutscene ensues where X and Zero meet Epsilon, the Rebellion Army Commander. Shadow betrays the team, several of Epsilon's subordinates appear, and X and Zero are separated in the ensuing battle. X wakes up in the Resistance's hideout, and the second chapter of the game begins. John buys a few items from the shop before continuing onward through the Central Tower, facing more random encounters along the way. He eventually reaches another short cutscene, after which he finds a save point.
