| Grab your sunnies! - 4/5 |
With interesting buildings, breathtaking ocean views and sweeping vistas, the Italian coastal town setting of Hitman Episode 2 is indeed a visual treat. Agent 47 swaps the smart attire we last saw him don at the fashion show in Paris for some casual wear as he seeks to infiltrate a villa housing two scientists responsible for a nasty DNA-targeting virus.
While the gameplay mechanisms are exactly the same as episode 1; it’s the second entry in the series that feels more like the Hitman experience that the developers are trying to portray. Although the previous instalment was an excellent introduction to the franchise for those unfamiliar with the bald-headed protagonist, it’s this latest episode that makes you want to try all the assassination techniques at your disposal.

The elite assassin, Agent 47 is back once again with the latest instalment of the stealth-action adventure series - Hitman: Intro Pack. This time, though, 47's story unfolds in the form of episodes, with the first chapter featuring two tutorials and an assassination mission set in Paris.
Serving as both a prologue and a sequel to 2012's Hitman: Absolution, the introduction, set in a training facility on a boat in Sydney, is primarily a tutorial for those unfamiliar with the series. It’s here where you get to grips with the gameplay mechanics, learn how to incapacitate guards and disguise yourself as you hide bodies.
