Critic Reviews for Hitman - The Complete First Season
With six episodes under its belt, Hitman has proven itself to be a decadent, deadly comeback for Io Interactive.
Hitman is back. Confident design and a willingness to experiment produces some of the best missions of 47's long career.
A successful resurrection of Hitman. Deft systems design and great levels, slightly let down by production issues and online restrictions.
An excellent reinvention of the Hitman formula that gives existing fans almost everything they want and makes itself highly accessible for newcomers.
The super-sized environments require more patience than ever, along with a willingness to continually revisit the same locations
This 2016 take on Hitman is a brilliant game. Expansive level design and nearly unlimited replay value courtesy of so many routes to your assassinations (and so many methods with which to carry them out) make the experience almost completely different each and every time you play.
Taken for what it is, and what it’s doing, Hitman is still pretty great, and it’s still offering something that no one else has done and still aren’t doing. And in establishing a strong, episodic offering for the series, Io has built a foundation to carry the Hitman series forward much sooner than they ever have before.
IO Interactive brings the Hitman series back in grand style. Not every level is Season 1 is amazing, but at it's best, Hitman contains some stunning settings, amazingly detailed level designs, and a vast number of ways to kill your target. It's handicapped a bit by its online implementation, but if you can get past that, you'll find one of the best games in the series.
