Hitman 2's launch trailer takes issue with fedoras

Hitman 2 is due out on November 13, or tomorrow if you’ve slapped down some cash for the Gold Edition. Today, though, is for launch trailers, which you can direct your eyes towards right now. 

It’s also review day, so you why not give our Hitman 2 review some of your attention? Phil reckons it’s great, though it hews pretty closely to its predecessor, which isn't a bad thing in this case. 

It’s always a bit odd, watching trailers or other people play Hitman. There are guns! Who uses guns in Hitman? Madness! Thankfully, there’s also a lot of people falling, or boats falling on people. I’m all about that ‘accidental’ death. Comedy, that’s what I’m after, as well as getting rid of fedoras.

Trying to figure out when the heck you’ll be able to drop boats on people? Here are Hitman 2’s release date timings

Fraser Brown
Online Editor

Fraser is the UK online editor and has actually met The Internet in person. With over a decade of experience, he's been around the block a few times, serving as a freelancer, news editor and prolific reviewer. Strategy games have been a 30-year-long obsession, from tiny RTSs to sprawling political sims, and he never turns down the chance to rave about Total War or Crusader Kings. He's also been known to set up shop in the latest MMO and likes to wind down with an endlessly deep, systemic RPG. These days, when he's not editing, he can usually be found writing features that are 1,000 words too long or talking about his dog.
