Plot
editA group of six units from Planet Cray, called the "Apostles", have invaded Earth. Armed with the power of the six Zeroth Dragons, the Apostles aim to revive the sealed Dragon Deity of Destruction, Gyze who attempted to destroy Cray in the past. The final battle between the Vanguards and the Dragon Deity of Destruction begins. In order for Gyze to move freely on earth, The Apostles target Chrono, because of him being the singularity point for Gear Chronicle. Team Try 3 must reunite and master the power of Dimensional Overstride, or lose those they care about to the Dragon Deity of Destruction.
