Ethan Hunt and the Impossible Mission Force (IMF) are brought into an investigation of a shady international corporation, known as SURMA, that is in possession of a highly advanced computer virus known as Ice Worm. It has the power to break through any type of security system and could lead to the theft of any data ranging from nuclear weapons specs to intelligence of any government. When their own operations are sabotaged, Ethan and the IMF team find out that their secure databases have been hacked and that their enemies are now in possession of some of their deepest, darkest secrets. The team must find this worm to protect global internet security.
Tom Cruise, the actor that portrays Hunt in the movies, does not lend his likeness nor his voice acting to the character in the game. The only actors from the films to lend their voices were Ving Rhames, to the character of Luther Stickell, and actor John Polson, to the character of Billy Baird, reprising their roles from Mission: Impossible II.

Although the spy game has many similarities to the successful game series Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell and Metal Gear Solid, fans and critics reacted lukewarmly to Operation Surma.
