Hitman

Hitman’s first season is a full-blown triumph. IO Interactive has masterfully pulled off this gamble with relatively few hiccups along the way. The world of assassination has never been a finer place to visit than it is right now.
In HITMAN, players step into the shoes of Agent 47, a skilled and stealthy assassin, as they travel to various locations around the globe to take out targets in a series of creative and strategic ways. The game offers a mix of sandbox-style levels and linear missions, with numerous challenges and opportunities for replayability. Players must utilize Agent 47's arsenal of weapons, disguises, and instincts to complete their missions and avoid detection.

The story aspect of the game is hindered by a confusing menu system that complicates mission navigation, leaving players frustrated. While the outfits provide some additional content, they do not significantly enhance the overall narrative experience.
“The outfits are the only additional content, and the atrocious menu system makes it hard to navigate through the missions.”
“The story feels disjointed and lacks coherence, making it difficult to stay engaged.”
“Character development is shallow, leaving me feeling disconnected from the plot and its outcomes.”
Critic Reviews
Hitman Review
All in all, Hitman is a very promising start to the reboot series. The visuals are good, the voice acting is excellent, and with the longevity promised in Contracts mode it should be a series that runs and runs. The issues with the AI can be addressed in future episodes, we hope, and if that happens then the game will certainly hit a higher score than we can give it this time. With five further episodes to come in 2016, the future's looking bright for our shiny-headed assassin.
