Knowledge is the most powerful weapon in any Hitman player’s arsenal – which is saying something when that arsenal includes sniper rifles, garrote wires, and explosive rubber ducks. The joy of this series is the steady process of acquiring that knowledge; deconstructing the clockwork of the levels to identify targets’ weaknesses, and learning every last movement of its cast to orchestrate daring murders.
