Going by the initial presentation, Hitman appears to be the game fans have been waiting for since 2006's Hitman: Blood Money, with huge sandbox environments and an unprecedented amount of opportunities to assassinate your target.
The month of October is going to be filled with excitement as the Hitman franchise is commemorating its 25 years of being in the business.
It’s the 25th anniversary this year?
I’d have assumed it would have gotten something like a remastered trilogy of the original games or a remake of the first game. Something for a 25th celebration.
Super lacklustre
Cultured Vultures: With the World of Assassination Trilogy wrapped up, here's our thoughts on the best and the worst in the series.
From PSU: "Ten years ago, the Hitman franchise was in a transitory state. Blood Money had become something of a classic and with Hitman Absolution there was a clear decision to push IO Interactive’s assassination sim series to a whole new level. That experimental, often divisive, entry turned out to be pivotal in what would follow.
Elements of Absolution, such as its accessibility and player-created content, would be mixed with the more traditional Hitman games’ sense of murderous creativity to birth the Hitman Trilogy 0f 2016-2021. A series that would take its creators on a turbulent journey of publisher changes, independence, and the eventual triumph of being handed the tantalizing 007 license."
Hopefully they don't punish you for killing people,which is the funnest part of being a HITMAN.
Blood Money was a classic example of devs making a great game, then destroying it with a horrible rewards system.
Good...because the last Hitman game felt...well.....less like Hitman
so many good games this year still, my body is ready for more hitman.
Sounds like they are doing it right with this Hitman, i'm in. The last Hitman was a hit with critics but i'd prefer a more sandbox style.
Did they say exclusive contracts on PS4?
I'm expecting good visuals and a fun game. Hooray games!
Why have they made those nice trademark pistols black??? Hope this gets a physical release.. 👍
