Hitman 2 doesn't reinvent proceedings but doubles down on the impressive stealth mechanics and open-ended game design. IO Interactive delivers another great instalment, which should offer countless hours of crazy assassinations. I look forward to the see where Agent 47 goes next! Because this was a great adventure

All in all, Hitman 2 is the series at its best without shooting for the stars. It's an incremental update to a working formula that is fun to play, but it can sometimes feel underwhelming. Based on its level design and gameplay opportunities alone, Hitman 2 is one of the best entries in the series — and that's all you need to know if you're a fan of the franchise.

The long-awaited followup to Hitman 2016 isn't perfect, but it's pretty darn good.

Mission stories once again act as great training wheels to get players up to speed with the game’s mechanics and environments, and from there, Hitman 2 has a wealth of possibilities just waiting to be explored, enjoyed and revelled in. And they should be.

Hitman 2 is engrossing from the beginning to the end. It is a masterwork in stealth, and visually sublime with a gorgeous implementation of HDR. IO Interactive has iterated on what made the original Hitman fun, and the result is that the sequel hits new highs leading to one of the finest Stealth games released this generation.

Considering IO Interactive’s plans for Hitman reboot from day one, Hitman 2 is more like a second season for the 2016 title rather than a new Hitman experience. If you accept this fact, and if you liked the 2016 title, then you’ll enjoy Hitman 2, as it’ll present you with tons of freedom within very well-designed levels.

There's no forced path or endless pile of hints to the point that the game almost plays itself. Hitman 2 lets you play your own way, and it's all the more rewarding as a result.

A great sequel for those who just wanted another Hitman with huge new maps. New game is still as great as the previous one, despite the lack of big meaningful gameplay additions.

It is still one of the best stealth experiences that offers a variety of assassination options with interactive world and side characters, but overall it's a bit similar to the first season. Both Ghost mode and sniper assassin are good addition to the series but after few replays it gets boring and repetitive, they need more locations and challenges.

Hitman 2 tries to rescue what was left behind in the first title. New clothes, accessories and locations may attract you at first, but the lack of interesting extras makes the game more of the same.

Hitman 2 is a brilliant game for stealth games fans. Various methods for killing your targets, level design and different environments makes Hitman 2 an enjoyable experience. Hitman 2 is not one of the best games of 2018 but it's absolutely worth your time and money, specially if you are an stealth fan or Hitman series lover.

Hitman 2 once more tries to deliver delightful moments in silently assassinating a person (eliminating a target). This kind of creativity is very rare in modern games and we don't often see a game which is so focused on level-design details. The new elements in gameplay, made the experiense of [playing as] the silent assassin feel more realistic and by compensating for AI shortcomings and the weak story-telling, managed to make this game an enjoyable and valuable game with high replayability

Hitman 2 is better that Hitman (2016) in most aspects including story and gameplay and new features make it even a better game to play. beside that. Hitman 2 also provides great freedom in completing its missions and it's one of the best things about it.

Hitman 2 is a disappointing follow-up. Instead of working to expand on the elements that worked in the previous entry, there's been a misguided effort to simply add bullet-points to the back of the box. A bad story, less impressive levels, and superfluous new modes leave the sequel lacking an identity, like 47 himself.

To sum it up, these days there is not any better choice than Hitman 2 in genre of stealth. Luckily enough, if you haven't got the chance to play the first game, now you can act as Agent 47 via the second installment with all the new features.

This is stealth-lite, a game made for the casual crowd, and on that note, I can’t forgive the game for damaging a series I used to hold dear. The intricacy of past titles is gone, and what is left is an empty shell of what Hitman used to be. Scan the barcode on Agent 47’s head and all you’ll ring up is a package of cheap junk food. Empty calories that wont sustain you for long.
