Story
Sigma was originally created as the pinnacle of all maverick hunters. Eventually infected with a deadly virus, his thoughts slowly became more corrupted over time until he became a maverick himself. Using his experience as the former commander of maverick hunters, he leads the rest of the mavericks into a war on the human race and seeks to rid the world of all organic life.
Gameplay
Sigma is the absolute best in one important area: screen coverage. Although his giant body can be a hindrance on defense, he puts it to great use on offense with his laser sword, taking up a large portion of the screen with every attack. He has great tools in other areas, but playing neutral with Sigma especially can be incredibly challenging.
