Many fans thought this could be the end, but Warner Bros. HITMAN 2 was almost not made because originally IO Interactive was funded and supported by Square Enix, but through the release cycle Square Enix pulled funding from the company and they were put on shelf to be bought by another studio.
#Hitman absolution review metacritic series
This decision did not work in their favour as many casual fans who wanted to get into the series were turned off by the lack of content. Firstly, HITMAN was released episodically which meant that you could only play one level at launch along with the tutorial. It’s important to acknowledge the struggle IO Interactive was in when developing the new set of Hitman games. HITMAN, HITMAN 2, and now HITMAN 3 are all a part of the World of Assassination trilogy which is a soft reboot of the Hitman franchise after the terrible reception of Hitman Absolution. Whether it's a piano falling on a poor sod or being strangled by a bald man in a chicken costume, the sky’s the limit for how you want to assassinate your target. The series has been going strong since 2000 and has garnered quite a reputation for its expansive level design that allows you to kill your enemies in a variety of ways. To the uninitiated, Hitman is a stealth franchise that focused on the prolific assassin Agent 47 as he works with the secret organisation the ICA, going from contract to contract to kill evil conspirators. From the dark and secret corners of Thief, all the way to the spy thriller of Splinter Cell I have had the pleasure of experiencing different stealth games with their little quirks, but no stealth game has quite immersed me in its world and gameplay like IO Interactive’s Hitman.
