Back in 2016, Hitman’s future was in flux. The franchise had become stale and lost some of the luster that made it a standout when it originally launched.
It was clear to developer IO Interactive that Hitman needed to go back to the drawing board. They decided it would be best to release Hitman in episodic fashion, releasing new maps every few weeks to keep players engaged.
Although that announcement raised eyebrows amongst gaming circles, the end product became one of the best games of 2016.
The constant release of new maps for players to explore and new targets to hunt gave Hitman new life and reinvigorated the series, making it the definitive way to play a Hitman game.
Each map released is jam-packed with detail. One walk around a map reveals just how much love and care went into each decision made as it is filled with detail and gorgeous scenery.
Whether its the random dialogue heard amongst NPC’s, sightlines from buildings to the various targets you hunt, or even just the absurd amount of items you can use to eliminate enemies, it is clear that Hitman not only revived itself, but elevated beyond what the previous games had done.
Hitman: Game of the Year Edition comes with all of the maps, outfits, weapons, and episodes that were once released in a piecemeal fashion.
For only $14.99, Hitman: Game of the Year Edition is loaded with content and an easy choice to grab during the PSN September sale.
