IF YOU’RE ALREADY familiar with IO Interactive’s Hitman series, then Hitman 3 – the third game and conclusion to The World of Assassination trilogy – won’t surprise you. And that’s a good thing. Hitman is arguably the best stealth game available.
As Agent 47, you have to act and react patiently. Both the story and the location matter. How you eliminate your targets should be a calculated affair. This game isn’t about running ahead at full force with a weapon in hand to get through the mission. It may be fun to do that, but you’ll undoubtedly fail.
From Dubai to Dartmoor, Chongqing to Berlin, each mission location in Hitman 3 is breathtakingly detailed. While none of the core gameplay mechanics have been changed from the previous two titles, this new release refines the locations by introducing some rather complex and unique levels. They’re not necessarily difficult, but the areas are so well designed – with many moving parts, nonplayable characters, and a high level of detail – that they feel endlessly replayable.

F1 taught me that speed starts with comfort
AS A FAN OF MOTORSPORT, I'M ALWAYS fascinated with the finer details that go into Formula One racing. Piloting the fastest racing cars on the planet subjects drivers to savage forces - up to 6 G's under braking which has led to an almost endless pursuit of comfort.
