Plot

After the fall of Communism, criminals from the former USSR flooded into Eastern Europe where they established a crime syndicate in a land where authorities were powerless and the laws were replaced by the crime. Dealers of weapons and drugs have turned Prague into their headquarters where they could make millions of dollars by selling weapons to various gangs.

Ray Carver is an assassin who works for two rival mafia families. After Carver fails to assassinate Demyan Ivanov, one of the crime bosses he frequently works for, he decides to kill the brother of the other crime boss, Mikhail Suverov. Mikhail is angry and wants to kill Ray Carver to avenge his brother's death, so he calls Aleksey "The Wolf" Andreev, a legendary Russian hitman who is rumoured to be fictional. Aleksey is out for Carver, but soon they both realize that they are in the middle of a huge gang war. So they decide to team up and kill every member of the mafia in the Prague's criminal underworld.
