Hitman

This game is lokie pretty good, but Hitman 2 is better overall because there is more rewards and ect

Hitman is stealth video game developed by IO Interactive and published by Square Enix. It's the sixth entry in the Hitman franchise. The game consists of six episodes and is also described as the first season of this franchise reboot.

The six episodes follow contract killer Agent 47 who has to eliminate targets all around the world from a fashion show in Paris over the dusty streets of Marrakesh to a private hospital in Hokkaido. While the locations are stunning and diversified, the different missions are sometimes repetitive and tedious. Potential bonus episodes and online content can't hide the fact that the game is missing a coherent flow which decreases the long-term factor significantly. Instead of playing the entire first season all at once, it's recommanded to play one episode in its entirety and to take a break of a few weeks to rediscover Hitman's universe again.

Just like the other entries of the franchise and even the two movies, the new Hitman reboots has massive ups and downs. If you want to play single coherent stealth video game episodes, Hitman can occasionally provide some solid entertainment. If you are however looking for a game with an intriguing story that connects the different episodes and original twists, you will have to look elsewhere. In the end, the new Hitman reboot is only for long-time fans of the franchise.

10 out of 10 The Art of the Kill, Perfected

This isn't just a game-it's a masterclass in patience, precision, and beautifully controlled chaos. With Hitman (2016), IO Interactive redefined what it means to be an assassin in a modern sandbox. Gone were the linear corridors of past entries. In their place? Massive, living environments. Dozens of ways to eliminate your target. And one core rule:

"Make it look like an accident."

The Setup: Agent 47, Back in the Shadows

After a long hiatus and the more story-focused Hitman: Absolution, this 2016 reboot brought Agent 47 back to his roots-but better. He's cold, calculating, and silent as death. Each level is a puzzle box disguised as a luxury resort, embassy, fashion show, or fortress.

You're given two targets. Maybe three. That's it.

How you take them down? That's on you.

The Gameplay: Murder as Sandbox Art Disguises - Become anyone: a model, a chef, a drummer, a bodyguard. Every outfit changes your access and approach.

Opportunities - Scripted but dynamic story paths that open up unique kills: poisonings, electrocutions, chandelier drops, even launching a guy into a jet engine.

Instinct Mode - Track enemies, locate items, and see through walls like a true ghost.

Tools of the Trade - Fiber wire, coins, screwdrivers, silenced pistols, expired sushi. If it's in the environment, it's probably lethal.

And the best part? You can mess up. A plan can go sideways-and the game rewards you for improvising.

The Levels: Big, Beautiful, Brutal

Each mission is a fully-realized world: Paris (The Sanguine Fashion Show) - A glittering event of vanity and betrayal. You can assassinate a model while pretending to be him.

Sapienza - A sun-soaked Italian town hiding a bioweapon lab beneath it. It's basically a murder vacation.

Marrakesh - A riot-torn city with a dictator, a banker, and a mess of politics.

Bangkok, Colorado, Hokkaido - Each more dangerous, intricate, and stylish than the last.

No game before this gave you such detailed, replayable maps where everything matters.

The Structure: A New Format, Bold and Smart

The game was released episodically, which at first raised eyebrows. But it worked. Each level felt like an event. IO Interactive wanted you to replay missions-over and over-mastering every method, unlocking new gear, and challenging yourself with: Escalation Missions Elusive Targets (one-shot real-time contracts) User-created Contracts

This turned Hitman (2016) into a living, evolving game. And it still holds up today.

The Tone: Dark, Cool, Self-Aware

Agent 47's deadpan seriousness paired with absurd assassination methods (death by exploding golf ball, anyone?) creates a tone that balances slick professionalism with dark humor. The story is subtle, slow-burning, and becomes more important in later entries-but the real narrative is how you kill.

Verdict:

Hitman (2016) is where the modern trilogy began-and it's a flawless return to form. Rich environments. Limitless creativity. And a central gameplay loop that never gets old. This is what happens when a studio knows exactly who its character is and builds the perfect world around him.

Silent. Precise. Brilliant.

10 out of 10.

The world is your weapon-and you are the ghost in its shadow.

Well I'm going to write this because it doesn't have enough. This game is excellent. It's gameplay is smooth, sounds and music is on point, controls are smooth and easy, fun factor is through the roof! If your a fan of the other games then this one will not (should not) disappoint. I've had yet to not like a Hitman game. This game has it all like mjd859 states, exploring, collect, and you can replay and try it a different way. I've also heard people complain you die to quick if you don't go stealth. um I do that myself and do die but then again theres times I don't.....so I don't know what to say about that. Buy this game!!! lol

First off there is no difficulty so you get what you have, also i have played Absolution close to 100 times and enjoyed it so much, in this one you barely get a story, the auto aim is awful, it aims way past the target. The way to select your weapons is crap and you die after 2 gun shot which makes the game even more frustrating...........................

If you are a casual gamer or expecting a fun story like absolution think again this is not it, its a huge step backward, good thing i paid only half price for it.
