Introduction

When it comes to assassinations, few franchises manage to capture the excitement and meticulous planning required quite like Hitman. Hitman 3 wraps up the story of Agent 47 in a way that is as satisfying as it is stylish. But don't fret if you're not into details about how the world’s most infamous hitman lays out his plans over a cup of coffee – there's plenty of action and absurdity sprinkled in too!

Gameplay

The gameplay retains its roots from the previous titles, emphasizing stealth and strategic planning as players control the genetically enhanced assassin known as Agent 47 through a myriad of lush and highly detailed levels. The game boasts six main locations, showcasing environments ranging from the opulent skyscrapers of Dubai to the lofty Carpathian Mountains. Each level is a veritable playground ripe for creativity, where players can utilize disguises, environmental hazards, and just about anything they can find to dispose of their targets. The incorporation of 'mission stories' grants players guided opportunities for unique assassination methods – think of it as a Tom Clancy-themed interactive theatre.

Hitman 3 is undoubtedly one of the best-looking games out there, especially on the PS5. The level of detail is astounding – it's as if each character had a makeup artist on set. Shadows play beautifully, and the environments are teeming with life – from NPCs just hanging out to the intricate designs of each locale. It’s like each map is an urban jungle, but more hostile if you happen to misstep and get caught doing something suspicious. The smooth frame rate adds an added layer of realism that only enhances the sensation of being the world's most elite assassin.
