The two tutorial missions aren't very inspiring since they are literally sets, complete with actors playing roles and cardboard props but the main mission that's a completely different story.Īs a guy who's played through each Hitman game, episode one's main level which is set in the midst of a Paris fashion show has easily become one of my favorite of the entire series.

This does mean that you're going to need to be okay with playing the same levels over and over but I found myself surprisingly ok with that idea given how quickly I was finding new areas. Each time you complete one of the missions you're given something new like a new weapon, customs or starting point that opens up a ton of possibilities. While that doesn't sound like a lot there's a huge amount of replayability here due to the game's open world murder playground. The first episode (available in a $15 intro pack or a full price, full season download) comes with two tutorial missions and one actual one.

The biggest change from previous editions of Hitman to this one is the episodic release schedule. This is one of those games where you often think 'can I do this?' and you find that you can, with often amazing results. Do you sneak in the shadows to your location sight unseen or steal a guard's uniform to access restricted areas without much push back? Every time I played Hitman I would find a new area, or a new way in or some new item that opened up a world of possibilities to complete my goal. Here killing is an art form and you'll have an impressive amount of mediums from which you can paint your masterpiece. Sure, you could just walk right up and shoot them if you're brazen enough but that's not what Hitman is about.

You'll get a target, a location and not much more instruction but your job is clear - eliminate them at all costs. If you've played any of the previous Hitman games before you'll know what to expect here.
