9 Brutal Video Games You'll Only Beat Through Repetition
3. Hitman (2016)
The levels in the new instalments of Hitman are vast and ridiculously detailed.
In order to pull off the perfect assassination, 47 has to gather solid intel on his surroundings. Repetition is key to this process, as you'll only find the secrets of each level by either spending hours exploring (without actually assassinating your target), or by successfully completing the mission and returning to the level to see what you missed.
From falling chandeliers to explosive golf balls, IO interactive's reboot of Hitman provides you with so many avenues to completing your mission. It may take you weeks of retrying the same level to discover every pick-up location and disguise, but the feeling of having 47 flawlessly pull off his assassination and nonchalantly walk out is an experience like none other.
Seeing clueless guards trying to find their boss- who you know is safely stuffed into a wardrobe - is a sight to behold. You'll continue with your business for the ICA with your hunters none the wiser. But how exactly will you pull off the perfect hit with no witnesses and a silent assassin rank to your name?
Repetition.
