In our return trip to Marrakesh, we meet and murder new and fascinating people in the second of two Summer Bonus Episodes.I've said Hitman is a lot of trial-and-error in the past, where players are supposed to poke around and learn what they are and are no able to do without getting caught. That...
In the middle of the Hitman season, Episode 4 took IO Interactive longer to release than they thought it would. As an apology, they release two bonus missions, reusing the maps of Sapienza and Marrakesh. Today, we'll go through the Bonus Episode in Sapienza.Worth noting is that these missions would...
Our time in Japan, and with the story in Season 1, comes to an end.Aside from the gimmick that this is a highly secured facility where 47 cannot bring in any equipment, this mission also has the gimmick that every outfit has an RFID chip. The AI running this facility scans the chip when the player...
Here it is, the final story mission. Not the end to our time with Hitman, but it does feel like a finale of sorts.(BTW, I looked up Situs Inversus, and it is an actual medical condition.)I thought it was a bold move to restrict the items that 47 can bring in with him to just his suit and...
Today, we wrap up "The Ex-Dictator"In the previous episode, we spent most of the time answering the question of "How are we going to approach the target without being detected?". Now that the question's been answered, two new ones open up:"How do I kill these two?" and "How will I get out once the...
Another Elusive Target: "The Ex-Dictator"This Elusive Target is noteworthy for two reasons.This Elusive Target is the very first target to take place in the hotel in BangkokIt is also the first one to have two targets.Since players can no longer retry an Elusive Target once any one objective has...
Today, we undertake a new Elusive Target: "The Identity Thief"With all the Elusive Targets, I have noticed that a very large percentage of them take place in the Paris map. To a degree, that makes a lot of sense. Paris is the first map they released, and it comes with the Intro Pack, which...
If the title of this episode has you confused, my attempt at "The Fixer" was... less than ideal.I'll be honest with you, I was really bummed that I bungled that mission at the end.But in hindsight, it's good that I was able to capture that on camera, to demonstrate the true finality of these...
Today, we take another look at Elusive Targets with "The Fixer".The tricky part of an Elusive Target is that players can restart as many time as they want until they complete an objective.IO allows players to restart because they want to offer them the opportunity to scout out the area and how the...
And now, we end our little escapade in Colorado.The story of Hitman has always been a precarious position. As a series, Hitman has always been gameplay first. While a story exists, and there is a canon for the series, it has never been an important part of the series.There has only been one Hitman...
