HITMAN (2016) 3 (2021) Notes
Continuing Agent 47’s story from the 2016 reboot-ish HITMAN, HITMAN (2016) 3 (2021), the all-caps sequel to HITMAN (2016) 2 (2018) from io interactive, is out.

Square-Enix put out the amazing Hitman (2016) last year, I love that game and it’s disappointing to hear that Square-Enix is dropping IO and probably will end up keeping IO’s creations: To maximize player satisfaction as well as market potential going forward, we are focusing our resources and energies on key franchises and studios.
