Highlander spielt in einer postapokalyptischen Zukunft ca. 700 Jahre nach dem Einschlag eines Asteroiden. Alle Unsterblichen schworen, dass sie ihr Wissen der Menschheit bewahren und die Kämpfe gegeneinander einstellen. Jedoch Kortan leistete diesen Schwur nicht und wurde somit zum Tyrannen, der die Welt beherrschte. Doch zehn oder 1000 Jahre nach diesem Ereignis wird ein neuer Highlander kommen, der gegen ihn in einem Duell antreten wird: Quentin McLoud. Er wird von seinem Lehrmeister Ramirez ausgebildet um Kortan zu besiegen.
