A new Hitman release plan hit the web a little while back. After Square Enix removed preorder packages fans got worried the anticipated title would not hit store shelves. Lucky for gamers, this title is set to release but in a very different way than expected. The new Hitman release plan is confusing, odd and hard to swallow.
The month of October is going to be filled with excitement as the Hitman franchise is commemorating its 25 years of being in the business.
It’s the 25th anniversary this year?
I’d have assumed it would have gotten something like a remastered trilogy of the original games or a remake of the first game. Something for a 25th celebration.
Super lacklustre
Cultured Vultures: With the World of Assassination Trilogy wrapped up, here's our thoughts on the best and the worst in the series.
From PSU: "Ten years ago, the Hitman franchise was in a transitory state. Blood Money had become something of a classic and with Hitman Absolution there was a clear decision to push IO Interactive’s assassination sim series to a whole new level. That experimental, often divisive, entry turned out to be pivotal in what would follow.
Elements of Absolution, such as its accessibility and player-created content, would be mixed with the more traditional Hitman games’ sense of murderous creativity to birth the Hitman Trilogy 0f 2016-2021. A series that would take its creators on a turbulent journey of publisher changes, independence, and the eventual triumph of being handed the tantalizing 007 license."
Very disappointed in the plan. I want to buy a Hitman game with no limits. I feel limited by the episodic release of the game. I want to wait for all of the content to be released but just don't know anymore. Ill have to see how this plays out to see if Im even interested anymore or if its just another sly move from the video game industry to increase income in some way...
Destroyed every last inch of hype I had for the game. Wait to crap on my excitement just weeks before my most anticipated game of 2016 comes out square enix...
I don't have much hope for Hitman
When you think Square Enix is getting better...
Watch the game sell completely fine anyway its only sites like these where everyone complains but for the main audience that's interested they are going to buy it anyway.
