HITMAN 2

That’s the heart of Hitman: giving players the power to create their own stories. And that’s as big and powerful as ever in Hitman 2. So I don’t care if it’s not the newest thing in the world. It’s still one of the most solid and rewarding games you can get. And it’s an ideal antidote to games that are more obsessed with looking immersive than playing great.

Hitman 2 is for people who liked the episodic Hitman and wanted to see maps that were more even and consistent, have access to additional equipment for Agent 47, and generally get more of what they wanted. It does have some issues where it can feel disjointed, but this is really most noticeable in the campaign and will not be an issue for folks who want to take on contracts, hunt down Elusive Targets, complete challenges, and learn everything they need to know about each of the locations in the game.

Hitman 2 is the pinnacle of the series, offering fantastic gameplay and extremely replayable locations. As well as the additions of a co-op sniper mode, an online competitive mode, and new targets and items updated frequently makes this well worth the full price admission despite it sharing the same bones as the previous game. Hitman 2 is perfect for the causal and hardcore stealth player.
