1. Hitman 3 (2021)

Want to live out your murderous fantasies in locations all around the world? Hitman 3 lets you.

Hitman 3 is a great conclusion to the “World of Assassination” trilogy. Danish outfit IO Interactive came up with a game people won’t soon forget, featuring some of the best levels in the series to date. The game kicks off with an exciting mission in a Dubai skyscraper reminiscent of the Mission Impossible movies.

The story continues in England, where Agent 47 has to investigate a murder mystery while posing as a detective. The third mission, which takes place in a Berlin nightclub, requires you to locate your targets while improvising ways to kill them, and is the highlight of the game.

Hitman 3 was renamed to Hitman: World of Assassination in early 2023, and now includes all the levels from the modern trilogy. This lets you enjoy the entirety of Agent 47’s murderous journey from Hitman 2016’s training missions to Hitman 3’s conclusion in the Carpathian Mountains. This is the best game in IO Interactive’s murder-themed franchise then, and a fitting send-off for Agent 47, at least until the next game in the series hits the shelves, that is…

Came out on: PC, PS4, Xbox One, PS5 and Xbox Series X/S (also Nintendo Switch via streaming).
