[edit] Plot
So far, not much of the actual storyline is known. IO Interactive has only provided a background for the two main characters and how they came to be working together.
[edit] Kane
Kane's initial normal life took a turn for the worse when his son found his gun and shot himself with it. His wife blamed him and he subsequently left to become a mercenary, eventually working for a mysterious group known only as The Seven. While on assignment in South America, things go awry and his entire team ends up dead (or so he thinks). Kane manages to escape with a fortune in diamonds, but the authorities catch up to him and he is sentenced to death.
[edit] Lynch
Lynch is a working class guy who suffers from severe schizophrenia which requires extensive medication. He wakes up one day to find his wife dead, but because he blacked out, he isn't sure whether or not he had anything to do with it. Nevertheless, a jury sentences him to the death penalty.
[edit] Initial encounter
The two men first meet on a transport to death row. Both are freed by The Seven because they want the fortune back that Kane stole from them. Lynch is taken on by the mercenaries to watch over Kane and ensure that he doesn't try to screw them over again. As additional leverage, Kane's wife and daughter have been kidnapped by The Seven. Now Kane and Lynch have to work together to regain the fortune, so that Kane's family may survive and Lynch may have Kane's old job.
