The classic stealth titleHitman: Blood Moneyis finally making its way toNintendo SwitchasHitman: Blood Money - Reprisallater this month.
Hitman: Blood Money - Reprisalbrings all 12 levels from the original 2006 release alongside a whole host of enhancements including a modernized control scheme and a reworked UI that includes a new mini-map. It also features an “Instinct Mode”, inspired by more recent entries in the series likeHitman 3,that allows you to easily highlight enemies and objectives in the environment.
Anew trailershows some of these features in action on Nintendo Switch:
The port is being developed by Feral Interactive, who have an absolutely superb track record when it comes to bringing older games to mobile platforms. They previously released the incredibly impressive iOS and Android port ofAlien: Isolation,which saw a feature complete and visually stunning version of the 2014 horror game running on mobile phones.
They also released another version ofHitman: Blood Money - Reprisalon iOS and Android on November 30, 2023. As a huge fan ofHitman: Blood Money, which I would easily consider one of the best single-player games ever made, I snapped it up straight away and have been playing through it on my daily commute over the last few months.
I’ve been pretty impressed with a lot of the new features and the overall performance, though the game is undeniably a little harder to play as a result of the touch controls. They’re very well implemented, sure, but nothing quite beats the level of precision you can gain from using a traditional gamepad so I’m definitely looking forward to getting to grips with the Switch port.
Hitman: Blood Money - Reprisallaunches on January 25, 2024 and will be available for $29.99 / £19.99 via the Nintendo Switch eShop. Those who pre-order the game can take advantage of a 15% discount on this price.
