ThisGenGaming says "So now we have Hitman, the new game in the series. One of the downfalls to Absolution was a very linear level design in which the player still had choice, but still followed a predefined path in the levels. In the next installment we are going back to the roots of the original games, in which level design is fluid almost like mini worlds – with various paths that a player can take to get to the end point: assassinating your target. One of the staples of Absolution will return – large crowds and lots of AI. Levels in Hitman will be larger than that of Absolution with the same fill rate of crowds and NPCs. Checkpoints have been dropped moving back to the traditional “save as you please”. One of my favorite modes of play was the higher difficulty in which the number of saves was limited – making the game even harder."

Stealth action games from the Hitman series are no longer available for purchase on Russian Steam. When going to the game pages, the message “This product is not available in your region” appears. The changes were noticed to us by one of our users along with a screenshot.

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
