Haggar agrees to meet and rendezvous with Maki in Hong Kong while being accompanied by a martial artist currently studying under him named Carlos Miyamoto, who volunteers to help out as well, stating that he owes both Haggar and Guy for an unknown past debt to the two of them. Rena's sister, Maki calls Haggar for help, informing him that she has a potential lead in which a small group of Mad Gear members are currently stationed in Hong Kong via their own local criminal activity there. Unknown to the heroes however, the remaining members of Mad Gear had silently withdrew from Metro City after Belger's death and sought revenge against the trio, reinventing themselves as an international criminal organization under the leadership of a new boss and while Guy is away training, Mad Gear kidnaps both Guy's girlfriend Rena and her father Genryusai.

In due time after their battle against the Mad Gear Gang, Cody and Jessica go on a personal vacation while Guy departs on a personal training journey of his own, leaving Haggar to return to his own duties of office as the Mayor of Metro City. After Belger's death in the previous game, the Mad Gear Gang is presumably destroyed and that the trio of Cody, Haggar, and Guy, who had succeeded in their rescue mission of saving Jessica from the Mad Gear Gang, are celebrated as the heroes of Metro City by the public, who had sought and wanted peace and happiness for many years in Metro City itself.
