Synopsis
to be added
Plot[4]
The story begins following Ex-Aid and Para-DX's battle against Build during Kamen Rider Ex-Aid: True Ending. Build appeared and took Ex-Aid's powers away, but Sento has no recollection of such incident happening other than a dream. Misora has made two new Fullbottles.
When Sento arrived to a Smash distress call, he found a Nebula Bugster instead, the latest mutation of the Bugster Virus. While Sento battled the Nebula Buster, Ryuga was blown into an alternate reality where the Sky Wall never existed, where he meets Emu and the Gamer Riders. The Riders from the world of Build and the Riders from the world of Ex-Aid, alongside the Legend Riders Fourze, OOO, Gaim, and Ghost will stand up against this threat!

Notes
- This film marked the return of:
- Eiji Hino, since Kamen Rider × Kamen Rider Wizard & Fourze: Movie War Ultimatum.
- Ankh, since Kamen Rider × Kamen Rider Fourze & OOO: Movie War Mega Max.
- Gentaro Kisaragi, since Kamen Rider × Super Sentai × Space Sheriff: Super Hero Taisen Z.
- Kouta Kazuraba, since the first set of Gaim Gaiden.
- Of note, actor Gaku Sano returned to play Kouta this time, as Gaim's appearance in the previous Heisei Generations movie was only filled up by recycled voice clips following Gaku being unavailable at the time for filming.
- In addition, with Shunya Shiraishi and Ryoma Takeuchi's return in previous Heisei Generations plus Renn Kiriyama and Masaki Suda's reunion in the promotion of Futo Detective, all of the Heisei Kamen Rider phase 2 protagonist actors have made a "return" before the Heisei period ended.
- Additionally, from W to Ghost, the original actors who played the main Rider in Movie War films have appeared at least three times.
- Both Renn Kiriyama and Masaki Suda first appeared in Movie War 2010 and their third would be Movie War Mega Max.
- Shu Watanabe first appeared in Movie War Core and his third would be Movie War Ultimatum. However, due to his character's appearance in this film, he is the first actor to reprise his role for more than three Movie War films.
- Sota Fukushi first appeared in Movie War Mega Max and his third was this film.
- Shunya Shiraishi first appeared in Movie War Ultimatum and this third would be Kamen Rider Heisei Generations.
- Gaku Sano first appeared in Sengoku Movie Battle and his third was this film.
- Ryoma Takeuchi first appeared in Movie War Full Throttle and his third would be Kamen Rider Heisei Generations.
- Shun Nishime first appeared in Super Movie War Genesis and his third was this film.
- Additionally, from W to Ghost, the original actors who played the main Rider in Movie War films have appeared at least three times.
- Following its immediate predecessor, this is the second Heisei Generation movie with "with Legend Riders" in its title.
- Despite appearing in this movie, Gentoku Himuro does not transform into Night Rogue and Soichi Isurugi does not transform into Blood Stalk while possessed by Evolto.
- It is unknown how Kamen Rider Grease can appear at the point in time that the movie takes place when the Sclash Driver blueprints have yet to be completed by Sento and taken by Soichi to Nanba Heavy Industries, which occurs after this movie in episode 15.
- The term "FINAL" in the film's title denotes this film being the final crossover film in the Heisei Kamen Rider Series, as producer Shinichiro Shirakura has confirmed that there will be no more spring crossover movies from 2018 onwards (i.e. a discontinuation of the Super Hero Taisen Series), following the announcement of Kamen Rider Amazons: The Last Judgement.[16]
- This is the first Movie War to have:
- One of the main Rider's ally in the past series have appeared in three consecutive Movie War films. In this case, Onari Yamanouchi.
- The two head writers of the two featured series writing the movie. Unlike the early Movie War films, this is the first to have both head writers writing the entire film.
- The main Rider's allies that appeared in the past series makes a return in this film. As a result, this film features the most returning characters of the past series that are not in the current two series.
- The Legend Riders in this film to have original actors reprising their role without having substitute voice actors filling the role or using voice recording from the actor's previous work such as on television series or movies. Unlike the previous Movie War films on the first teaser, this is the first time to confirm having the Legend Riders to be portrayed by their original actors.
- Movie War 2010 features several original Riders and all the main A.R. world Riders. Only the original version of Blade is voiced by his original actor, while the A.R. version of Faiz is voiced by replacement.
- Movie War Mega Max features the Seven Legendary Riders and Kamen Rider Double, but the former were voiced replacement instead.
- Movie War Ultimatum features Double, Accel, OOO, and Birth, however only OOO is voiced by his original actor.
- Kamen Rider Heisei Generations features Wizard, Gaim, and Drive. Out of the three, Gaim is the only Rider that does not have his actor return, but reuses phrases that was use in his related materials.
- The teaser poster only featured three Legend Riders' silhouette, instead of four.
- Gaim is the only series that does not feature at least one ally that appears in this movie.
- Of note, Foundation X are the main antagonists of the movie. Their last appearance was in Kamen Rider Brave: ~Let's Survive! Revival of the Beast Rider Squad!~ through a cameo in the end of the special.
- The assistant director of the movie has admitted he forgot that the Fourze Driver was destroyed. [17] As a result, this movie is treated as happening just before the event that leads to the Driver's destruction happened, which coincidentally still possible within the timeline, as the movie where Fourze Driver is destroyed is mentioned to be set in 5 years after the end of Fourze series, the same as Heisei Generations FINAL.
- This is the first Movie War since:
- Kamen Rider × Kamen Rider Wizard & Fourze: Movie War Ultimatum to reach #1 at the opening weekend box office.[18]
- Kamen Rider × Kamen Rider Drive & Gaim: Movie War Full Throttle to feature a new character that will appear in the current series and elements from Kamen Rider W due to Foundation X's appearance in this film.
- Kamen Rider × Kamen Rider Gaim & Wizard: The Fateful Sengoku Movie Battle to feature monsters that appeared in past series.
- The 48th page of the guide book of this film foreshadows the Heisei Phase 2 Rider #10. Marked as "NEXT RIDER?"
