Just be sure to holster them after picking them up - the guests of the Sanguine fashion show get understandably jumpy when it comes to someone brandishing a crowbar in the middle of a crowded bar. Wrenches, crowbars and screwdrivers all have uses outside of makeshift implements of death, and having one or more to hand can often open up options to sabotage gas lamps, expose live wires, or force open doors.

Some items can be used as both melee weapons and as tools to achieve certain tasks. This will make everyone nearby immediately suspicious. In these instances, holstering a bulkier weapon such as a two-handed firearm is simply going to end up with 47 slinging it across his back. Similarly, be aware that while some disguises give 47 a licence to be armed - namely those of bodyguards and security forces - many do not. This can raise a guard's suspicion, and so anything you obtain should be immediately and discreetly holstered (by pushing up on the d-pad if you're using a controller). Either way, we've got you covered in our guide.īe aware that when you pick up an item, be it something as innocuous as a coin or as incriminating as a fire axe, Agent 47 is going to hold it in his hands for all to see. Newcomers, on the other hand, might be initially overawed by the freedom of approach and sheer scope of the task ahead of them. Once inside, it's down to you to take them down in any number of diabolical ways.įor returning veterans of the long-running series, there are a number of familiar concepts from previous games that have been expanded upon and many new options introduced. Here you must infiltrate a clandestine ring of rich and powerful VIPs in order to expose the shady dealings of morally-corrupt oligarch Viktor Novikov, and his ruthless ex-supermodel partner-in-crime, Dahlia Margolis. The basic idea of Hitman is the same as it has always been. Starting off in the ICA training facility 20 years in the past, we see the bald and the beautiful Agent 47 earn his stripes, before skipping forwards to the present day, where he makes his appearance at the Sanguine fashion show in the Paris Showstopper level. The 2016 Hitman game really did take the series in a great direction and while when it was released the episodic format was not something I liked you can now play the whole game altogether. Hitman's first foray into episodic experimentation is a joyous mix of patience, planning and, ahem, execution.
