The Hitman [2016 game] thread

edited December 2016 in General Chat

This thread will focus on the new Hitman game of this year from Io-Interactive. I'm not sure how many other people on this forum would participate in this, or even own it, but I figured I'd make it so you may discuss about the franchise and share your thoughts on the reboot. I will try to update this with important and relevant news about its releases when I see them come to light.


Latest Episode: Episode 6 [Situs Inversus]

The Hokkaido location is set within the grounds of the hyper-exclusive GAMA private hospital and resort. This secluded facility is a fusion of Japanese beauty and cutting-edge technology, featuring its own Zen gardens, organic sushi restaurant and traditional Japanese hot spring.
Episode 6: Hokkaido features a mission called “Situs Inversus” and is the culmination of everything players will have learnt in terms of both gameplay and story.

  • Alright, so now the whole Hitman 2016 season one is completely released, who played it and what were your thoughts about it? The good moments and the bad? Or any ugly glitches? Hopes and dreams for future content? Anything. It's high time I got this train moving. So the question is... Will you get on?

  • I hope that the maps will continue to be bigger considering the last map I played (forgot which one it was) was way too small with too many guards.

  • Hitman is boring as hell. However that Hokkaido location seems very interesting. I love sushi, gardens, hot springs and Japanese girls who giggle at conversation. Do I have to buy/play all episodes to get to the 6th?

  • For Xbox One you can buy the episode separately. For other platforms idk.

  • You can just buy the 6th one and start from there (though you need the first episode for the base that all other content sits on.) Hokkaido seems like the coolest so far, though maybe not as large and as detailed as the others. For me, My list of episodes from best to worst are:

    • Sapienza (ep2)
    • Hokkaido (ep6)
    • Bangkok (ep 4)
    • ICA facility (prologue missions)
    • Paris (ep 1)
    • Colorado (ep5)
    • Marrakesh (ep3)

  • I forgot to mention, if there are any creative individuals out there who have made a Hitman contract they'd like to share, feel free to post it here with title, id# and platform. I've made a few but the ones I'm most proud of are my Black Death saga. Doing one difficult contract per level and I have these so far:
    ALL ON PS4
    The Black Death! Redux - ID: 203685159001
    The Black Death! Chapter 2 - ID: 202643600901
    The Black Death! Chapter 3 - ID: 208843327301
    The Black Death! Chapter 4 - ID: 206339549201
    The Black Death! Chapter 5 - ID: 209202022401
    I'm going to make a part 6 for the last episode, but not sure when. For now, there's that.
