Great list. All those are top maps for me too. I’d also add Hokkaido and Vermont (Whittleton Creek) to that list personally, especially Hokkaido. I’d probably say top three in order would be Sapienza, Hokkaido, Chongqing.
When you’re done with the main story, definitely check out the extra stories. Patient Zero is probably my favourite, especially the last level, but all of them are great. I found Seven Deadly Sins to be the most challenging personally. Sniper mode is also a ton of fun too. Really, all of it is. I could just list every part of the game at this point actually, I just love Hitman.
If you’re into watching games on YouTube, OutsideXbox has my favourite Hitman content personally. I’d highly recommend checking out their Three Ways to Play series, it’s especially hilarious if you know their personalities well but even if you don’t, you’ll enjoy them anyway. They’ve got a ton of Hitman content though and it’s all great. I’ve probably seen all the videos several times now. They’ve even done a live action Hitman one which was super neat and got a bit chaotic at parts, in the best way possible of course.
Yes I love Hokkaido! I need to go back & explore it some more but I love how it does more with a smaller area. That's exciting! I'll check out thsoe extra missions too, and yeah I love doing Suit Only Sniper Assassin - it's such a test of patience and map knowledge.
Love OutsideXbox! I'll check out their videos on the game
Without spoiling anything, the best level from a side story (imo) is on Hokkaido. You’ll have to work your way to it though.
I used to speedrun silent assassin suit only on Sapienza, that’s where I got a bunch of my hours in the game. I never beat any records or anything but I got pretty decent I’d like to think. I don’t remember my stats anymore though, that was years ago now.
OX used to be my favourite channel and is still up there, and I’d say their Hitman content is their peak. I’ve been watching them since their very early days when they were a small channel, and I’ve probably seen every video they’ve ever put out, and I’d still say Hitman is their best stuff. Definitely give it a watch.
