The game is set in the 1920s in an alternate reality from the ''Eternal Champions'' games. In this universe, Larcen Tyler found out earlier that the package he was to send to the hospital by Tagilani was a bomb. He disposed of the bomb, resulting in it not killing the police chief of Chicago, the people in the hospital, and Larcen himself. Because of this act, Tagliani considers Larcen a traitor and orders all the mobs in Chicago to kill him. While in hiding, the police order Larcen to become a police informant and ask for Larcen to clean up the streets of Chicago in exchange for information about Tagliani's current whereabouts.
