It's time for another round of Pick One! This week, to celebrate the upcoming addition of Hitman Trilogy to Xbox Game Pass on Thursday, January 20th, we thought we'd take a closer look at the three most recent titles in the series.
All we want to know is, which is your favourite? Remember you can only pick one!
Let's take a look at what we're working with:
Hitman (2016)
There is a world beyond ours. Beyond nations, justice, ethics. It never sleeps. It exists everywhere. And once you enter....there is no going back. Welcome to the World of Assassination. You are Agent 47, the world's ultimate assassin.
Hitman 2 (2018)
Travel the globe and track your targets across exotic sandbox locations in Hitman 2. From sun-drenched streets to dark and dangerous rainforests, nowhere is safe from the world’s most creative assassin, Agent 47 in the ultimate spy thriller story.
Hitman 3 (2021)
Hitman 3 is the dramatic conclusion to the world of assassination trilogy and takes players around the world on a globetrotting adventure to sprawling sandbox locations. Agent 47 returns as a ruthless professional for the most important contracts of his entire career.
Let us know which of these Hitman games is your favourite below.

I haven't played any of the Hitman games. I'm Looking Forward to playing them on gamepass soon. I hope they are as good as people say.
I don’t know if I’ve played through a whole one..excited to pull the trigger
😉
Aren't these all the same game technically? I was expecting this to be asking me about the original games.
My breakdown of it: the first release was basically a work in progress sorta experience, buggy and beta feeling for a while. The second game felt a lot more complete, essentially the same thing only more polished with added content. The third game essentially has all the content of the first two games plus it's own added content. By now there is absolutely no point in going back to play the first two, the third game has all the levels, a much smoother launcher, the download is notably smaller/better compressed, and it performs better overall.
Does it matter what order you play them in?
I thought they were meh I bought hitman 1 goty & then got hitman 1 & hitman 2 from ps plus but I didn't like the episode style it didn't really feel like there was any story to it
@JayJ thanks, I've never played any and was going to start with the first but now I might go straight to 3
I guess 2? I feel the series has gotten better as it goes along. Excited to play 3.
@Nightcrawler71 Yes
@Nightcrawler71 they're episodic.
@JayJ I was going to ask about this, do you think we'll be able to play the levels from 1 & 2 through Hitman 3 on gamepass or are they classified as paid DLC meaning we'd need to download all 3 games?
Hitman 3 was released in 2021, not 2020.
@NickramCTID @Jamesonn You should be able to just play all the content from the first two on the third game. In fact I think they made a Gamepass announcement about that, you should be able to download the DLC.
So yeah just download the third game, you should be fine. All the content is there, and it's the best way to play the games.
Not really my series - if I want to pick up a new trilogy, I think I'll stick to Mass Effect - although the action really feels a bit too stale and dated to enjoy.
Maybe I should just finish the Halo Infinite campaign?
Hitman III is probably the best one, but Hitman 2016 will always stand out in my mind, as I was sure the series was dead after Absolution. The pleasant surprise of playing that game for the first time can't be matched by the following games.
