"What I respect most about this new iteration of Hitman is that it’s not ashamed of being a video game. It’s not exactly the most sophisticated stealth experience out there, but it certainly appears to have a solid foundation as well as the potential to be one of the most enjoyable. It’s a fantastic sandbox full of possibilities, and like the Silent Assassin demo many years ago, I felt compelled to keep playing and push its boundaries to see what I could get away with. I’m well aware episodic delivery is an afterthought, but I also strongly believe, based on the fundamental nature of the series, that it has the potential to be successful. If each location can feel unique, and the developers take the time to listen to fans and implement feedback over time, an episodic Hitman could be the best thing to ever happen to the franchise."
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
