En route to retrieve his faithful housekeeper, May, from a European health clinic where she is recovering from an illness, Bond is warned by MI6 that Tamil Rahini, the current leader of S.P.E.C.T.R.E., now dying from wounds suffered due to his last encounter with Bond (as described in Role of Honour), has put a price on Bond's head. "Trust no one," Bond is warned. Soon after, May (and Miss Moneypenny, who had been visiting his housekeeper) are reported missing, and Bond finds himself dodging would-be assassins while searching for his friends, assisted by a young debutante and her capable, yet mysterious, female bodyguard.

No One LivesForever later appeared in a Game of the Year (GOTY) version, with one additional singleplayer mission which was not made available to those who bought the original.
No One LivesForever 2: A Spy In H.A.R.M.'s Way ran on a then-new game engine, Lithtech version 2.0, "Jupiter." The new engine introduced a number of enhancements over NOLF's Lithtech 1.0 engine, including higher quality graphics, facial animation, pixel-shaded water, and a rudimentary implementation of ragdoll physics.
