Hitman 2

Hitman is at its best when it divorces itself from the on-screen violence and instead treats the experience like an absurdist playground. The sequel does this particularly well. Many of the game's more bare-bones completionist challenges, like killing your targets with a sniper rifle only or doing an entire mission in your signature suit without ever being seen, are aptly referred to as "the classics."

Story: 7/10 Gameplay: 8.5/10

Great gameplay and AMAZING level design but as with HITMAN 2016 the story is so boring that's not even important.

'Hitman 2 (2018)' essentially provides more of what made the first game so successful. Its innovations aren't to its mechanics, but rather to its sandbox mission design. Although not much has been changed from the base game, the piece makes a number of small tweaks and improvements that add up to a more refined overall experience. You can purchase the levels from 'Hitman (2016)' (or, if you already own that game, simply download them) and play them here, making this the perfect place to start your journey if you haven't yet experienced that prior title. Even if this is, basically, more of the same, it's still a phenomenal stealth game. After all, why fix what isn't broken? The huge open-plan levels, the myriad of assassination methods, the plethora of disguises, the abundance of secrets and challenges, the absurd 'opportunities'... it's all here and it's all great. Plus, the game isn't episodic this time, so it can be enjoyed entirely at your own pace. It will be enjoyed, too. It's a fun, engaging and entertaining experience that you can easily sink hours into. 9/10

Don't be fooled by people who are quite skeptical of this title, or even give it negative reception. The game works good, the game controls good... but most of all, it feels good. Buy Hitman 2. You'll spend countless hours playing the huge amounts of content and it rarely ever gets boring. Remember to buy or redeem the Legacy Pack for max enjoyment, but the game is solid enough without it. This is the best Hitman game after Blood Money and i'm very excited with what IOI Interactive has in store for us in the future.

This game is basically just a dlc for the original Hitman. Pretty fun, but they should have added more weapons from the first one.
