The game takes place a few years after the original Super Meat Boy with Meat Boy and Bandage Girl enjoying life while having a picnic with their infant daughter Nugget. Suddenly, Dr. Fetus attacks them both and kidnaps Nugget. When Meat Boy and Bandage Girl came to and discover that Nugget is missing, they both go on a quest to save her.

The first world, Chipper Grove has a similar appearance to the opening picnic scene mentioned before. In this world, basic game mechanics are introduced gradually. The boss fight of Chipper Grove is Big Slugger, a larger version of the Lil’ Slugger boss which was introduced in the original Super Meat Boy. After the boss is defeated and Nugget triggers the ejection function of the tank’s cockpit, a cutscene displays the destruction caused by Dr. Fetus and Big Slugger, as well as a rogue group of animals led by a battle-scarred squirrel. The animals follow in pursuit of Meat Boy and Bandage Girl.

In the next area, the Clinic, an abandoned mental health clinic, the duo face off against Manic, a biologically engineered brain with telekinetic powers that created an entity composed of broken glass and syringes called the Manipulator, and defeat him by triggering the fan switches to expose his point of vulnerability (thanks to Nugget, though unintentionally as she was playing with the light switch that also activated the fans). Meanwhile after the fight, the animal squad march forth to wage war against Dr. Fetus, using the Big Slugger against its inventor. At first pulled by a herd of deer, but then Manic is recruited to power the machine and take revenge against his creator for abandoning him in the second boss fight.

Once Meat Boy and Bandage Girl arrive in the barren city of Tetanusville, Dr. Fetus uses a very special security system called the Lab Guardian to eliminate them, but they manage to destroy it. Dr. Fetus, in extreme anger, gives them both the double middle finger, in which Nugget copies him, playfully mimicking his gestures to three butterflies; much to Bandage Girl’s amusement and Meat Boy’s disapproval of Dr. Fetus showing the middle finger in front of her.

Dr. Fetus then takes Nugget to The Lab, Dr. Fetus’ hideout. After they defeat a bunch of his clones and the real him, Dr. Fetus (who was wounded along with an untied shoe) pushes a button to a chute, dropping several dead Meat Boy clones on the pair. Just before Dr. Fetus could rise triumphant, the animal squad along with Manic arrived, causing him to trip and send his untied shoe flying, which lands right beside Nugget (who was watching videos on his tablet during the boss battle) and she starts playing with it. After an intense stare down, the squad began to advance towards Dr. Fetus, only for him to activate the Big Slugger’s auto-destruct function which causes it to explode, leaving the whole squad including the squirrel on the verge of death, making Nugget cry as her pacifier dropped onto the ground at the sight of the destruction and casualties. Meat Boy and Bandage Girl were clearing their way out of the pile of dead Meat Boy clones just when they heard Nugget crying, while Dr. Fetus attempts to calm her down. Meat Boy and Bandage advance towards Nugget, while the squirrel (who survived the explosion, but fatally injured) advance towards an encased button on the arm of Dr. Fetus’ throne. Just as Dr. Fetus is at a loss of how to get Nugget to stop crying and before Meat Boy and Bandage Girl could rescue her, the squirrel taunts Dr. Fetus of pushing the button (believing it’s the auto-destruct button of the laboratory), but the succumbs to his injuries and falls on it. Upon triggering the throne button, time begins to fracture, causing Meat Boy and Bandage Girl to age, and transporting the entire planet to an alternate universe based on the fractured timeline called the Other Side.
