Hitman: World of Assassination

At $59.99, Hitman: World of Assassination is a solid investment for stealth enthusiasts. It packs a wealth of content that spans multiple games, offering plenty for both new players and series veterans. However, the Switch 2 version does have some performance hiccups that could be a dealbreaker for some.

Playing Hitman: World of Assassination on Switch 2 feels familiar and engaging, though it has its quirks. The core gameplay is intact - stealth, planning, and precision are key to success. The controls are responsive, especially for stealth maneuvers, and the touch screen can facilitate some inventory management. However, the frequent frame rate dips in crowded environments can disrupt the tense atmosphere that the series is known for. Compared to other platforms, the game works well in its content but falters in performance. If you loved the previous entries, the comprehensive nature of this title makes it a worthwhile addition to your library.

You step into the shoes of Agent 47, exploring diverse locations while plotting the perfect assassinations. Each mission lets you use disguises, tools, and environmental interactions to take out targets in various ways. The contracts mode invites players to create and share their own assassination objectives, enhancing replayability. Elusive targets and escalations add layers of challenge for completionists.
