    Specially I waited for the GOTY edition, it is in parts inconvenient to play a game. In general this game returns to series canons.

But in difference from Absolution there is no hint on an interesting plot and development of the character also here. It is a pity that developers have decided not to move further in this direction. And so a game is fine, and the main thing it is very variable in repeated passing. The only chagrin - an aggressive binding to online and network functions.… Expand

    As a long time hitman fan, I really enjoyed this latest instalment. Going back to the roots of hitman was a great move and although there were a lot of teething issues with the staged release I personally believe having the opportunity to experience the contracts and each map in detail without skipping through the entire story made the experience better.

    Pros: - Each map is huge and    As a long time hitman fan, I really enjoyed this latest instalment. Going back to the roots of hitman was a great move and although there were a lot of teething issues with the staged release I personally believe having the opportunity to experience the contracts and each map in detail without skipping through the entire story made the experience better.

    Pros:
    - Each map is huge and has a lot of life. Each level has very interesting concepts and overall keeps each mission unique.
    - The graphics are amazing and unlike previous hitman games there are loads of methods of assassination.
    - Replayability, currently on around 250 hours
    - The developers have added a lot of content and keep adding more, even with only 6 maps, there are bonus missions, contracts, escalations etc. Previous reviews stating the game is too easy have yet to experience one of the later updates adding the new harder difficulty option, which adds a lot of challenge to the existing content.

    Cons:
    - Voice acting did ruin some of the immersion
    - No Sniper briefcase
    - The last bonus mission was not as good as the previous 2.

    Overall:
    A great game and I commend the developers for their work, this is a huge step up from Absolution and I am worried that all the reviews asking for story will bring back another absolution(hitman has never had amazing stories, overall the cinematics between each mission were pretty good).

    I really look forward to another hitman game and if it is a continuation from this one I would definitely pre-order.    … Expand

    Hitman aims high. It also misses a lot. Yet to an extent, the game delivers, especially with the return of sandbox gameplay and all the possibilities that define IO's signature series.

    This game is up with some of my absolute favourite games. The levels are absolutely excellent and you can just plunge hours and hours into each level with all he escalation levels and trying to complete every objective. My only gripes are the always online requirement and the fact saving can be a bit broken

    This isn't a perfect game, but it is a good return to form for Hitman. I was not a fan of the episodic release and only got it once they were all out, and for a big sale price. It's worth it on sale and it was fun.

    I've been a fan of Hitman since the beginning and the games have grown into a well thought out and deep thinking experience. I thoroughly enjoyed this title.
    A Hitman game is an experience not many games provide. Although I'm not a fan of the episodic approach, the prologue training area with its multi-tiered ways of assassination can compete with some full priced games.

    The music, graphics, gameplay, story, control, UI, and replay value are all up to par for me to recomend this title.
    Does this title innovate compared to the older titles? No but it expands on some of that already fantastic gameplay.

    Great HITMAN game. It's been too long since the last game. Hopefully it doesn't take another few years to develop another title in the series. The graphics are very good and optimized quite well. I only wished there were more missions, overall the game felt very short.

    el juego es lo que se pidio que sea por capitulos es irrelevante, lo que si se tiene que criticar es la optimizacion del juego y el gumplay. los escenarios son enormes, las posibilidades tan bien son grandes, Io a mi no me importa el modelo de negocios solo optimicen bien el juego.

    I`ve been a fan of Hitman series from the first game released in 2000, and I`m very pleased with this iteration. It is challenging, stylish and smart. It is real hitman.

    I've played every Hitman game there is, and this one is definitely the best. Since it's release in 2016, alot has changed, following complaints from players. The always-online mode was changed to allow for uninterrupted play, even during a loss of connection - so, most people who wrote a hate rant about the game, because of this single issue, have nothing left to complain about.

    本作的关卡地图设计可谓是系列巅峰，尤其是意大利关卡。提供超越以往的更加丰富的暗杀方式，而且不同暗杀方式有些还有着非常微妙的背景设定，着实让人称道。但拉垮的主线真的是给本作减分不少，如果不加主线仅仅是做一个冷血的杀手不停接任务的游戏。我相信本作会有9分。

    Минусы
    -мало уровней.
    -сюжет здесь какой-то непонятный, тягомотный, только бесит.
    Про ИИ врагов. Вот тут странно: враги такие же слепые, глухие, балбесы-склерозники как и во всех прошлых частях. А вот когда начинается перестрелка, они ведут себя реально так как должны вести во всех шутерах, начинают обходить, закидывать говном, только высунешься - ежесекундно получишь пулю (Хитман откуривает где-то с 4 пуль иф чё). Короче энивей это лучший хитман, единственный весомый минус мало контента.    … Expand

    It's difficult to imagine what a modern HM Blood Money would look like, but Hitman does seem to be a step in the right direction, especially after Absolution did little to consolidate on what the Hitman series had done so well.

    This game is nicely done.

    Pros.:
    - Different solutions.
    - Graphics.
    - Story.
    - Variety of actions, overall gameplay, controls.

    Cons.:
    - Music is boring and reminds of X-Com like games too much.
    - The solutions sometimes are quite similar.
    - The game should have a hire difficulty by a default.

    A hitman that follow the Blood Money formula and yes it is awesome Hitman game in the series. Though I understand the online mode is a bad thing for some people. Overall personally for me, this is something I would expect from a Hitman game back to its root.

    Square Enix's decision to separate the game into several episodes and market the game as a “Season” may interrupt with the storytelling of the game, but it also takes the game back to its roots, putting you in a sandbox full of opportunities and choices. Not all of the episodes are on par with each other and the “Opportunities” helping method makes the game feel a bit too easy and straight forward. But other than that, the game is a great addition to the series and fans of the series (especially “Blood Money” fans) would love it.

    New adventures of a bald assassin make the Hitman game playable for newcomers as well as for hardcore fans ¬thanks to the rich content and a wide set of options – surprisingly without major compromises, although not without some technical issues.
