Plot
The game takes place prior to, and during the events of, the first comic book. In addition to scenes from the comic book, several chapters also reveal some of Max's backstory and missions that take place prior to the beginning of the game.

On April 28, 1997, Martin "Max Shadow" Seager is in Sevastopol, Ukraine trying to prevent President Kalavn from purchasing nuclear weapons from a Russian General, Kirov. Shadow kills Kalavn but only hits Kirov in the arm. Believing him to sooner die of blood loss, he flees the scene. As he's being approved for deployment in their Sacramento HQ, he gets his alias and gets enrolled into the Agency

5 years later in 2002, Shadow is in Bursa, Turkey trying to assassinate Miguel Chavez, a Mexican drug lord. Chavez escapes, and Shadow is demoted to janitorial work. Meanwhile, his best friend, Cortez gives him a ability to be employed in the Agency once again. There is a secret agent in Sheffield, UK named "Costrel" awaiting trial. He goes into Sheffield, and gets Costrel out of the Courtroom, assassinating one of the judges, Malcom Lorem. On his Swansea hideout, a German passport triggers a flashback for Costrel, where he was going to assassinate a deputy of a Neo-Nazi political party giving a speech in the Humboldt University of Berlin back in 2000.

The flashback is too much of Costrel, who goes mad and screaming after hearing his last words. They leave for Sacramento, and thanks to Shadow's work, he is enrolled into the Agency once again. Meanwhile, he & Cortez are deployed to Saint-Tropez to raid a yacht belonging to a Jordanian oligarch with ties to Chavez. There, Shadow & Cortez find out about "Operation Weasel", an attack on European cities with Nuclear weapons.

Shadow & Cortez both escape the ship and chase the Jordanian oligarch's Mercedes S-Class in an Seat Leon Cupra R until it runs out of fuel. After interrogating the Jordanian oligarch, they get Chavez's location, a mansion 200 kilometers from San Pedro Sula, Honduras. Shadow & Cortez both arrive at the location, yet find out that Chavez has kidnapped the U.S Secretary of State, Santos Lanadro and will kill him unless the government gives him 2.7 Billion US Dollars. Shadow teams up with Cortez to kill Chavez who is in an helicopter. Chavez is killed, and the Secretary of State is rescued.

In an post-credits scene, it's revealed that the U.S had invaded Iraq, starting a Second Cold War. While the Republicans claim that the war is needed for the economy, the Democrats and Libertarians claim that it is completely illegal and must be stopped.
