No one can doubt the quality that Hitman carries, so surely it would not be too hard to transfer that panache to something as simple as a family title. Not to mention the fact that everybody loves ninjas – and if they say otherwise then I can only assume they are dead inside.
Obviously for a developer to leap from games meant specifically for mature audiences to what is fundamentally a kids title is no small feat, and it would be easy for IO Interactive to sit back and take things easily. Instead they have tried to craft a game that has a number of unique attributes while at the same time still being remarkably easy to just pick up and play. However, it is starting to seem like most family titles are occupying the same niche of combat and exploration, with titles like Kung Fu Panda, the LEGO titles and Ice Age to name but a few. So is there room in the market for a game that offers only one or two minor tweaks on the standard formula?..."
