Back when Ezio was still in diapers, Agent 47 was out there showing us all the fun ways in which you can assassinate people. Sure, Assassin’s Creed has continuously succeeded in its stealth and assassination elements, but Hitman has always offered you more freedom. In fact, every single game in the franchise encourages creativity, and Hitman Sniper: The Shadows is no exception.
Ever since its initial announcement, I’ve been eagerly awaiting Hitman Sniper: The Shadows. To be honest, any time a new title from this series is in the works, it piques my interest. However, the thing that interests me the most is the sniper element, and how the mobile games approach this single form of assassination.
The latest Hitman mobile game takes clear influence from both its predecessors on the platform, as well as from the mainline series that propelled Agent 47 and co to international stardom. Of course, I should mention that the bald assassin isn’t who you play as in The Shadows. Instead, you can choose from a range of agents, with each one having a different specialisation.
