What players say

Players are split on Hitman: Absolution. Some praise its cinematic story and polished stealth, while frustrated fans criticize it for being too linear, having small corridor levels, and a disguise system where anyone in the same outfit spots you. The online contracts servers are down, making some achievements unobtainable without workarounds.
