During today’s Square Enix press conference we got a deeper look at what the newly announced Hitman title has to offer. While we weren’t shown a full gameplay demo, we did get some insight into some of the game’s systems.
For a start this is clearly a full Hitman title, featuring a wide variety of ways to approach and kill your targets. If you want to hack at someone with a fire ax then that’s fine, but so is spiking their drink with something rather deadly or taking them out with a sniper rifle.
More interesting is the promise that new levels and targets will appear over time, with some targets only appearing for a limited time before vanishing forever. This doesn’t sound like it’s being billed as DLC either, but more as an integral part of the game.
Finally, the Contracts mode from Hitman: Absolution is returning, with new options and more complex sandboxes to set up your own missions in.
Hitman launches December 8th on PS4, Xbox One and PC.

I loved Hitman: Absolution so I’m suitably excited for this one.

I loved Absolution as well, although after playing it I then got the HD collection and I found that extremely hard.
