Hitman (2016) is a third-person stealth video game in which players take control of Agent 47, a genetically enhanced, superhuman assassin, travelling to international locations and eliminating contracted targets. As in other games in the Hitman series, players are given a large amount of room for creativity in approaching their assassinations. The game is being released in stages, which hasn't proved too popular with a large audience.
We test with many of the settings maximised, SSAO is disabled however as I found it causes some crashing. I have to say that Hitman is a little unstable at times under the best of situations, but we managed to get it running well enough to benchmark. The built in benchmark is very flaky indeed however, so real world runs had to be used.
At 1440p, owners of a 120hz, 144hz or 165hz screen will be pleased to see the benefits that two GTX 1080's cards bring. The minimum frame rates increase from 70 to 132, adding fluidity to the gaming experience. It is worth reiterating that image quality is set to maximum so further increases to frame rate would be gained by dropping some of the graphics options.
