About this game

Hitman 2: Silent Assassin follows retired assassin Agent 47 as he is forced back into action by treason. Players travel through crime-ridden environments in locations including Sicily, St. Petersburg, Japan, Malaysia, and India while completing contract killings.

Assassinations require solving puzzles and planning stealthy, untraceable approaches. Players can choose between stealth and aggression, use equipment ranging from armor-piercing rifles and explosives to chloroform and poison darts, and play from either first- or third-person perspectives. Their choices can have consequences.
