The game starts with Agent 47 waking up in Dr. Otto Wolfgang Ort-Meyer's laboratory and he speaks to 47 in a very abnormal manner. He directs 47 through the level which is a training mission essentially. Dr. Ortmeyer then lets Agent 47 escape, after which he later finds work for the ICA. Dr. Ortmeyer issues a contract with the ICA (very anomalously) to terminate the 'fathers' of Agent 47, as they have other ideas what to do with Agent 47.
He travels from Kowloon (Hong Kong), Colombia, Budapest, Rotterdam, (the Netherlands) and ending where the game started off in Romania.
Essentially, Mr. 47. is targeted throughout the game to assassinate all the people who were involved with Dr. Ortmeyer in the French Foreign Legion that aided him in his mad experiment to make a perfect genetic clone.
His last target is a Dr. Kovacs in Ortmeyer's front of a sanitarium, to which Agent 47 remembers Kovacs during the experiments and Kovacs assures 47 that it was Dr. Ortmeyer who was responsible. Ortmeyer calls the Romanian SWAT to place the sanitarium under lockdown. 47 then journeys through the sanitarium and discovers Agent Smith, who later helps him to get to the underground lab and kill the 48-brand clones and finally Dr. Ortmeyer himself.
