Hitman, the sixth installment in the Hitman video game series, is an episodic stealth video game developed by IO Interactive and published by Square Enix for Microsoft Windows, macOS, Linux, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One. Hitman was released in March 2016, and the game’s prologue acts as a prequel to Hitman: Codename 47, while the main game takes place seven years after the events of Hitman: Absolution.
In Hitman, players take control of Agent 47, a genetically enhanced assassin, and travel to international locations and eliminating contracted targets. Since Hitman is episodic in nature, new content is constantly added, such as weekly events, Elusive Targets, missions and various expansions. Since launch, other cities for the Hitman main game have been released, such as Sapienza, Marrakesh, Bangkok, Colorado and Hokkaido.
