Hitman turned out to be completely amazing, in spite of all expectations- following on the heels of the middlingly received Hitman Absolution, and being released in a piecemeal episodic manner that no one was sure made any sense for the kind of game that Hitman games usually are.
And yet, Hitman owned the episodic format, and delivered a fresh, powerful, emergent stealth sandbox that made a fan out of everybody. And now, developers and publishers IO Interactive are inviting more people to play the first episode of the game to get a taste for what Hitman is, for absolutely free. The first episode, including all the content that came with it – the story missions, escalation contacts, Achievements/Trophies, challenges, and all Contracts – will be included with this.
“I’m proud to announce that our first hello as an independent studio is to invite all gamers to play the beginning of HITMAN for free. There is a lot of love out there for HITMAN and with this offering we hope that many more will fall in love with the game. We believe that this is HITMAN at its best. So jump in and give a try,” enthused Hakan Abrak, CEO of IO Interactive.
The free download will be available on all platforms- do make sure to give the game a go, and stay tuned to GamingBolt for more coverage and information.
