    I think they own hitman but honestly I still prefer blood money anyway. Play the oldies, goodies or the new Indies, goodies.

      IOI bought Hitman back a few years ago, which is why World of Assassination is a thing. Before that, Ubi ruined it with a billion different packages. Now it’s a simple thing to get all three (modern) games.
