Hitman 2 for Windows

Hitman 2 (also known as Hitman Season 2) is the 8th entry in the Hitman franchise. Like Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell and Thief: Deadly Shadows, it’s a stealth shooter video game created by Interactive Entertainment. This Windows PC video game follows the life of Agent 47, a genetically engineered snipper assassin. He hunts and assassinates powerful criminals like the Shadow Client.

Agent 47 - Sniper assassin

Become Agent 47, a sniper assassin, and hunt down and assassinate your targets. Agent 47 gets all the information he needs about his next mark from his handler Dianna Burnwood. Both of them work for the International Contract Agency. He also works with Agents Knight and Stone. 

When playing the game, you have a choice: you can either do solo missions or co-op missions with other players. You get this from the online co-op when playing the ‘Sniper Assassin’ mode. Your mission can take place anywhere in the world, such as Hawks Bay, Miami, Mumbai, and other fantastic settings. Your location depends on your mission requirements. 

State-of-the-art weaponry

Hitman 2 comes with great graphics that the game feels so real when you play. You can choose between a state-of-the-art weapon or get creative with your surroundings; anything can be a weapon if you use it the right way. You will also get hints from previous games to help you with assassinations and choose from the fantastic line of costumes and disguises. The game also has impressive and hilarious dialogue. 

In this edition of the game series, you have to find and kill Columbia’s most prominent cartel leader, ‘Ricardo Delgado,’ and his top lieutenants. While plot twists unravel and new truths arise, Agent 47’s memories start to come back after he meets Lucas Grey, who turns out to be the Shadow Client, another creation of Providence. 

Game mode and features

Hitman 2 has eight missions for you to complete, each one taking place in a new fictional location. You can either download or purchase the entire game with all eight storylines from a reliable app store, website, or store that sells video games. Or you can download the free starter pack, which comes with the first mission, Hawkes Bay, where you have to escape from a deadly turn of events and familiarize yourself with the unique replayability of Hitman 2. You can experiment, improve, and complete all the challenges. The prices of the add-ons for the free starter pack depend on the package you choose.

Our take

Hitman 2 is a great game, it has impressive graphics and music, and the storyline and missions are excellent.  

Should you download it?

Yes. If you enjoyed the first seven editions or just loved playing stealth shooter video games, you will love playing this game.
