In addition to the story missions, Hitman 2 brings back the time-limited Elusive Targets, which gives players a certain amount of time to eliminate a target with no restarts, once you die, it’s over. Especially, that you’re not given that many gadgets and weapons. There will also be two paid expansions to Hitman 2 which will add new locations, missions, sniper maps, outfit, weapons and more.Įven though Hitman 2 offers a lot of player choice, the actual gameplay can seem somewhat repetitive, especially since it’s not that different than the Hitman (2016) reboot. If you own a copy of the Hitman (2016) reboot, then you have access to the levels from the first game in Hitman 2. There are six levels in the game including a racetrack in Miami, a fictional area in Colombia, Hawke’s Bay Mumbai, a fictional Vermont suburb and the Isle of Sgail in the North Atlantic. Hitman 2 is a stealth game and each level offers different ways to eliminate your targets, meaning there could be hours of replayability. The storyline in Hitman 2 is fairly straightforward and can seem somewhat weak but Hitman games haven’t always been solely focused on having a great story. You still play as Agent 47, a contract assassin working for the International Contract Agency (ICA) who travels to various locales to eliminate high-profile targets. If you played the Hitman (2016) reboot, then Hitman 2 will be very familiar. I was one of those who bought the game when all the episodes were available.įast-forward to 2018, and developer IO Interactive has released Hitman 2, which is essentially more of the same. I thought the first game was amazing and before then, I wasn’t the biggest fan of the Hitman games.

If you’ve been following my site for a while then you might remember my post about my favourite things from 2016 and one of the items was the Hitman (2016) reboot.
