Hitman: Codename 47 is a Action game.

As the Hitman, you must use stealth and tactics to enter, execute, and exit your assignment with minimum attention and maximum effectiveness.

When the minds behind the FPS revolution, that occurred with Doom and Quake, were busy thinking through specifics of gameplay, it is doubtful that they ever could have imagined anything quite like Hitman: Codename 47. The genre that gives Hitman its definition actually has very little in common with the gung-ho action sequences of relentless killing found in earlier entries. Though stories of assassination and silent murder are quite common in the electronic entertainment industry, few companies have ever opted to make a game based solely on making Mafia style hits for profit. In releasing Hitman, Eidos Interactive has taken a bold step towards the redefinition of action titles with the amount of thought that is needed in actually making a kill. Whereas most action offerings encourage you to jump out in the middle of a corridor and unleash a barrage of rockets or plasma-energy, Hitman requires you to carefully plan out your strategy before sneaking around that corner.

As the enigmatic Hitman, you must use stealth and tactical problem solving to enter, execute and exit your assignment with minimum attention and maximum effectiveness. For a price, you have access to the most devious devices, but how you use them will determine if you retire as a millionaire or get permanently retired. The Hitman is the world's most accomplished and wealthy assassin; however, he is plagued by a troubling past of deception and genetic butchery. The ingenious story will evolve over five chapters of heart-stopping action. Remember, the world of contract hits rewards a quick intellect more than a quick trigger finger.
