Hitman
In 1999, a man who goes by the alias 47 is initiated into the International Contract Agency, demonstrating exceptional aptitude as an assassin. However, the ICA is unable to verify his background or uncover any information about him. Uncomfortable with having no leverage over 47, the ICA training director, Erich Soders, arranges for 47 to fail his final test despite passing all of the other tests flawlessly. 47's handler and fellow trainee, Diana Burnwood, discovers this plot and helps 47 to pass the test against Soders' order of having him do it alone. Soders reluctantly approves agent status for 47 and assigns Diana as his handler. The events of 47's subsequent career are then shown as a montage of assassinations from the previous games in the series. In 2019, the shadow client performs an assassination for Viktor Novikov, one of the heads of the international spy ring IAGO, and receives a copy of all of IAGO's gathered intelligence as payment. The shadow client proceeds to use the IAGO files to identify Providence's secret operations. To cover his tracks, the shadow client anonymously discloses to MI6 an impending IAGO auction of an MI6 NOC list, to take place at a fashion show by Novikov's designer label Sanguine. In Episode 1, "The Showstopper", MI6 hires 47 to prevent the sale by assassinating both IAGO ringleaders, Novikov and Dalia Margolis, at the fashion show in Paris, France.

The beginning of the new Hitman trilogy plays better in some respects than its predecessors, but with many tools it is also a little easier than in older titles.
There are some cool missions and challenges, for example you go through the clinic disguised as a ninja and slaughter people unnoticed. The interactions with the disguises can also trigger side stories, which is pretty well done.
My map ranking (best to worst):
1. Hokkaido
2. Colorado
3. Sapienza
4. Paris
5. Bangkok
6. Marrakesh
7. ICA: Training Facility

Played this a few years ago on my brothers account, now I felt like maybe I should purchase it by myself and give it another run. It's a good hitman game and personally one of my favourites.
If u don't want to buy all 3 Hitman games altogether and only want to buy this single game, u can still buy it here:

Took me a little bit to get the hang of, because the amount of freedom you have can be very overwhelming for a new player.
That being said, once you do get the hang of it, wow. This is a lovingly crafted virtual playground that lets you act as stupidly or as efficiently as you want. TONS of replayability.

HITMAN™ (2016) is a masterclass game that exemplifies stealth and strategy!
Its mechanics allow both seasoned veterans and newcomers to the series to seamlessly slip into the role of the world's deadliest assassin.
Players are presented with a myriad of creative opportunities to eliminate their targets, whether it be through subtle manipulation, cunning subterfuge, or outright brute force.
Very well made and fantastic!

Hitman is an excellent action and stealth game that stands out for its open gameplay and creative opportunities to eliminate targets. As Agent 47, the player has complete freedom in how to approach each mission, from subtle manipulations to brutal solutions. Each map is a complex, living space, full of details and different ways of interacting. Intelligent AI and challenging challenges encourage you to experiment and improve your skills. Diverse locations and a wealth of tactics make Hitman incredibly replayable and addictive for hours. One of the best series of assassin games.

The Hitman is a nice game that differs from the old games of the franchise. What i don't like is that each mission is independent from the other, although the story is clearly connected. The graphics are perfect, the variety of skins is a nice addition, the stealth mechanic is verry good and the maps are verry beautifull especially the hokaido mission. The contracts are fun to play. Now the overall gameplay feels kinda monotonus and repetitive after a while but it's not bad at all.
