Square Enix has released some new screenshots for HITMAN. Hitman is described as a live and ever-expanding world of assassination, a digital experience that will continue to grow, deepen and evolve over time, where players perform contract hits on powerful, high profile targets in exotic locations around the world. Enjoy!

Really excited for the game, but quite confused by the business model..
it’s not that hard. On dec. 8th , they release (digitally), the first few missions. Through 2016 , they release the rest as it is created. Finished hard copy of ALL the material , end of 2016.
Yeah but why? Is Io interactive short on money?? Understand tell-tale doing it but for a AAA game?
I think because they are going back to their roots with this game and devs are not confident enough that a pure non linear stealth game will sell much.
METAL GEAR 5 sales will show them that stealth linear games can sell very well especialy on pc because we pc gamers like more those challengining games like stealth games while consolek kids prefer more the action without challenge games.
IDK about that, streamlining games doens’t make it sell better marketing does! Plus if it doesn’t sell as well, I think by that point, it would be too late to make a difference.
Maybe it’s just the lighting but it seems like they changed his face to make him look older, compared to how young he looked in the alpha.
yes. he is supposed to be older. Was too young in the alpha/trailers
I know, I’m glad they fixed it.
I still feel that the walking and interaction animations are a bit wonky.
Yeh I agree, the animations look kinda stiff in that alpha leaked footage. Hopefully it’s just a premature look and the animations do look better. Animation and fluidity would be important for a game about being sneaky.
Exactly! I can’t remember though if Absolution was the same..
The walking animation I’m pretty sure it’s the same, can’t remember the others though.
Yeah so they haven’t changed much, graphics + story line. That’s not work if you ask me.
Well graphics are “meh” for now but about story line, well… it’s Hitman what else can you do?
yeah if I were to compare them to some other games ‘meh’ is exaclty what I would say.
Damn! The game is looking tight!
does this have story mode or just contract kills?
That is what i’d like to know too.
I believe they have both. They have an overarching storyline but it takes a back seat to prioritizing level design and just thinking of creative ways to kill your target.
did they changed 47’s look ? cuz 47 now looks better than the E3 trailer
There’s something I have noticed about the Next-Gen only games, and I don’t know if it’s just me, or anyone else has that feeling, but doesn’t the colors look somewhat washed out/dull? I feel like last gen, the colors in games were stronger, more vibrant.
Perhaps because previous gen games had lower quality lighting effects? I’m not so sure, but crushed blacks were prevalent in previous gen games due to lack of taxing light sources/illumination and to hide low quality aspects. This gen, lighting is better so there is less ‘black and white’ and more gradients of lighting.
But pc versions has always had and has much higher quality resolutions and effects.
Perhaps it’s down to the techniques used. PC version has the better quality version of a technique, but the aesthetic of said technique remains the same between the games of a generation. When said technique is replaced by other technologies like more Ambient Occlusion and global illumination instead of a simple shadow, that’s when real differences come about I guess.
Probably bad screenshots or just the crappier console version.
old hitman looks better
