Hitman Episode 2: Sapienza Review

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.

Hitman Episode 1: Intro Pack Review

Almost a hit! 3.5/5

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.

E3 2015: Latest News on Dishonored 2 and Dishonored Definitive Edition

Dishonored 2 was announced at E3 2015

Dishonored 2 was announced at the Bethesda E3 2015 games conference in Los Angeles this weekend. The stealth action-adventure sequel will return Spring 2016 and be available on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC.

The Dishonored 2 story sees the fate of the isles once again in jeopardy thanks to an otherworldly usurper seizing the throne. To regain control Dunwall, you take the role of protagonist Corvo Attano. However, the game will mainly centre around Emily Kaldwin, the rightful heir to the throne from the previous game. Both assassins will be playable and will feature their own unique sets of powers, weapons, and gadgets.

The original Dishonored received over 100 'Game of the Year' awards back in 2012 and judging by Arkane Studios' debut trailer, there are plenty of reasons to be excited about its arrival next year.
