Summary

Enter the realm of a retired assassin, forced back into action by treason. You may be a hired killer but you still have a sense of loyalty and justice. Visit the dark recesses of a world corrupted by crime, greed, degradation and dishonor. And a past that catches up with you.

Trust no one - if the price is right, the finger of your most trusted ally will be on the trigger. Your targets may hide in the most remote areas of the planet, but their destruction is never prevented - only postponed.

Learn your trade - master your tools - overcome your obstacles - outsmart your enemies - eliminate your targets. Remember: rash decisions bleed consequences. Know when to strike instantly, know when to take your time. Chance favors the prepared. Failure is not an option.

Storyline

Once again, you enter the realm of an accomplished assassin – retired but forced back into action by treason. Trying to distance himself from his violent past he finds himself in a situation where he’s forced to take up his old trade. Learning about his legendary skills, a Russian crime boss trading illegal arms wants his services, but also has a different agenda.

You soon realize that you’re caught in the middle of a ring of deception and discover that you have become a target yourself – of a highly trained ex Spetsnaz assassin.

Use stealth, tactics and survival instincts to complete your missions. Plan your hits carefully and think to survive. Explore a universe, minutely recreated in fantasy, but based on facts – not fiction. Visit the dark recesses of a world corrupted by crime, greed, degradation and dishonor.
