Hitman: Contracts (Video Game)	comment	Hitman: Contracts (2004) is the third game in the Hitman series by IO Interactive, though it's really more of a mini-episode set between levels from the (then) upcoming Blood Money.It also serves as a remake (for all intents and purposes) of most of the missions from Codename 47, now using the improved game engine from Silent Assassin. There are more ways to win, along with a brand-new sniper's nest in most levels.The story finds 47 in a compromising position (shot in the gut) as he starts experiencing bizarre fever dreams. Of course when you get right down to it, his brush with the Reaper is just an excuse to don the pitch-black suit, prepare the fibre wire and reload the Ballers.The first half of the game consists of flashbacks to past assignments: a Romanian bondage club, an illicit weapons factory in Siberia, and a countryside manor in The Agency's home turf of England. The middle chapter revisits some old locations from the first game, namely Rotterdam, Budapest, and Hong Kong. The last mission brings 47 back to the land of the living—also known as Paris, where the police are moments away from capturing him.For tropes shared with the original, see Hitman: Codename 47. Do not confuse it with the much later, eighth entry into the same franchise; Hitman 3, which is the followup of the story started in Hitman (2016) and Hitman 2.Tropes

Hitman: Contracts (Video Game) / int_128e4ba8	comment	Gatling Good: A minigun can be obtained in the first level if 47 obtains Lee Hong's keycard later in the game and replays "Asylum Aftermath". It's Awesome, but Impractical due to slowing 47 to a crawl and this being a Stealth-Based Game.

Hitman: Contracts (Video Game) / int_14beeefd	type	Darker and Edgier
Hitman: Contracts (Video Game) / int_14beeefd	comment	Darker and Edgier: In a series built primarily around offing colourful villains in exotic locales, Contracts sticks out like a sore thumb. Every mission takes place at night and/or in foul weather, is filled with unusually-nasty characters, with vague hints of supernatural elements and a tone which borders on Surreal Horror. This one may be a hair too dark for the more Indiana Jones-level of violence in Hitman (2016), but Contracts is by far the stand out in terms of depicting just how far down the rabbit hole of mankind's depravity that 47 has had to go for his job. The first target kidnapped and murdered your client's daughter. The third target kidnapped your client's son...to literally hunt him down in the forest, as a hobby. Your fourth target isn't really evil, he might even be a good guy — just a gumshoe who got in over his head. The Latin chorus and trombones are out; no longer do we hear sweeping music in the background as Hitman mows down a diplomat. It's actually more in line with Kyd's earlier work on Freedom Fighters (2003), mixing ambient and industrial techno. We open with "Slaughterhouse", which slowly builds as Hitman falls deeper into his delirium, and end on "SWAT Team", which is a little action-packed for a Hitman game.

Hitman: Contracts (Video Game) / int_19a5d773	comment	They Look Just Like Everyone Else!: When 47 reemerges in the asylum, he'll find that one of the SWAT was overwhelmed by the inmates and stabbed to death. It is for this reason that 47 can't linger too long in the lobby, despite the police using it as safe zone. One of the inmates will suddenly pull out an SMG and shoot up the place. This will summon the nearby SWAT who will return fire. Unfortunately, they will shoot at you, too.

Hitman: Contracts (Video Game) / int_21d1512f	comment	Reality Bleed: The cutscenes in Contracts play with 47's fever dream hallucinations. In one, the hotel bathroom reverts to a meat locker, and in another, the hotel room door opens vertically like a cargo hold entrance, with a Russian foreman shouting instructions. When 47 first collapses on the floor, he flashes back to his fatal shooting of Dr. Ort-Meyer. Later, as 47 stumbles between his hotel room and the bathroom, he will start to hallucinate being in a meat locker. In the next scene, he sees a Russian soldier (actually a doctor) standing at the foot of his room, and this takes 47 back to a mission in Siberia. As the doctor prepares 47 for surgery, he takes out a hip flask and douses the wound with alcohol. The noise brings back memories of 47 riding a raft to the Beldingford estate. As the still-groggy 47 pulls the aesthetic out of his leg, he is pulled back to the Hotel Galar with a sedated VIP at his feet. Finally, 47 comes to and hears the Gendarme (French police) rapidly moving in; the sound of a chopper brings 47 back to Hong Kong.

Never heard of him), and hands you a VIP card just to shut you up long enough for him to run back into the restroom. He also leaves behind a bottle of laxative, which could be useful.

"Bjarkhov Bomb" is nothing to write home about, and trekking across vast stretches of empty terrain is as annoying as ever. But the blizzard effects are improved and the airstrip is a definite money shot. IOI were working overtime to add more entertainment and atmosphere to Hong Kong, which were the most archaic levels in the series (due to technical limitations of the time). The park, neon fish restaurant, and Lee Hong's fortress look cool at night, and it's fun to experiment with the new ways to kill all of the Red/Blue Triad targets.

"Traditions Of The Trade" and "Slaying A Dragon" are far easier than "Deadly Cargo", which originally appeared as two missions later into the original game. "Slaying A Dragon", which is more or less unchanged from the first mission in Codename 47, can be completed with little difficulty. "Hunter and Hunted" ramps up the difficulty, though it is the final mission.

Hitman: Contracts (Video Game) / int_9c63834f	comment	Boring Yet Practical: The Silverballer finally becomes this after two games of being a situational weapon; Codename 47 had it as an unsilenced backup weapon that wasn't much use for stealth and Silent Assassin had them as Guns Akimbo that were stupidly overpowered, even in their silenced form (which required obtaining a Silent Assassin rating once to unlock). Here, 47's default load out still has a pair of them, but, more importantly, also has a single silenced Silverballer from the getgo on Normal, allowing for silenced headshots when using the fibre wire is impractical. Effectively, it replaces the silenced Beretta from the previous two games, on Hard and Professional though 47 only starts levels with the unsilenced dual Silverballers (though, "The Meat King's Party" has one on the body of one of your targets if you're looking to unlock it that way).

Hitman: Contracts (Video Game) / int_abfc27eb	comment	Already Done for You: The opening level, "Asylum Aftermath", picks up right where the original game left off: There's nothing to do in the basement but stroll past the corpses of Ort-Meyer and the Mr. 48s. Also, SWAT officers have taken over the complex and will gun down any orderlies on sight, so you don't have to worry about them. The orderlies are armed with puny stun guns, so it's not like they're a threat to begin with. The final mission deposits you back at the hotel, with the police moments away from storming the place. The only point of interest is your mission briefing: it's expired and lists two of your targets as already dead. 47 is working without a net on this one; the third hit went wrong, and his only hope is to catch a lift out of Paris. The proper mission (assassinating a pedophile opera singer and his accomplice) is playable in Blood Money.

Hitman: Contracts (Video Game) / int_b2280b66	comment	Retcon: A huge part of the game is a remake of Codename 47's missions, with some key differences: "Asylum Aftermath":Dr. Ort-Meyer's lab is much bigger and high tech than it was in Codename 47, and it is somehow filled with inmates of the asylum.The Mr. 48s are depicted as being more austere, with buttoned-up jackets to contrast with 47's unbuttoned one. There's around 15 of them in the original corridor, but Contracts included more dead clones littering the rooms (25 in this version), including three inside of the chamber where you shot Ort-Meyer.Also, the basement is accessible by elevator, rather than a secret staircase.SWAT are preparing to storm the complex after 47 had killed Ort-Meyer, whereas previously, they had already taken it over by the time 47 entered Ort-Meyer's lab. Both Codename 47 Rotterdam missions (the nudie bar and the docks) have been condensed into one.The biker gang is larger than before and has a more visible hierarchy than in "Gunrunner's Paradise". If you look, they each wear vests and hoodies with the gang insignia (a flaming windmill) on the back. The prospects (the guys at the bottom of the food chain) are lacking the windmill logo, so they aren't allowed into the VIP rooms.Speaking of Rotterdam, the Flamin' Windmills have been retconned from street punks (some of them were black people) who used Uzis to all-white bikers who use big revolvers, and a brand-new mission takes place at their bar/HQ. One thing which was kept in is that they still enjoy watching strippers.Ivan (the clown gangster) doesn't appear at any point.There are no heavily armed Gas Mask Mooks and no dogs guarding the docks. Workers, cops, SWAT teams and the like populate the harbor instead.Boris doesn't use an escape limo and doesn't immediately activate the bomb with a 3-minute countdown. Instead, he threatens to detonate the bomb if he doesn't get a helicopter to escape in.You don't get to hijack the ship afterward, meaning 47 doesn't have to hurt the crew. There is still a ticking clock, but if you keep a low profile, you can finish your objectives with a minimum of bloodshed.Interestingly, the shootout with the Russian sailors can still occur if you allow the police to raid the boat as planned; the layout of the ship is almost exactly the same. Also, the Captain still dies (Boris shoots him, not you.) Boris undergoes and Adaptation Name Change from Arkadij "Boris" Jegorov to Boris Ivanovitch Deruzka. This could either be accounted for one of these names being an alias or 47 misremembering his name. "Traditions of the Trade":The mission takes place at night instead of during the day.The hotel is slightly-bigger despite having more closed-off rooms, and the dentist cabinet is bigger as well.Cut content includes the roulette table and the kitchen; Fritz doesn't gamble, and you can't escape out the back of the hotel this time. The Nazi sympathizer is gone, and he doesn't give you a SPAS-12 to kill the diplomats with. Instead, Diana leaves you the shotgun along with some "drop dead gorgeous roses" (classic Diana humor) to kill the bombers.The hotel is full of Hungarian cops and there aren't civilians walking everywhere this time around; the ground floor is closed since a murder has been committed in one of its wings. The Hong Kong missions play much the same, albeit at nighttime. There are cosmetic changes:The Cheung Chau fish restaurant is much bigger and decorated differently, and there are more ways to deal with the targets: sniping, poisoning food, and so on.Lee Hong's restaurant/HQ is more akin to a fortress and there's a ladder to get inside without having to use the gates. His private apartments are built on land and easily accessible at all times whereas in the original game they were built on pilotis and only accessible via the basement and Tunnel Network once 47 triggered the alarm.The brothel is a separate building with a bridge linking it to the restaurant instead of being situated on its upper floor. 47 doesn't need to bother with it unless the safe containing the jade figure is there: Lee Hong has the combination on his person, so there's no need to help the prostitute to get it.47 must take the jade statue with him instead of delivering it to the old shopkeeper (speaking of which, the herbal shop and shopkeeper don't appear).The bartender is a nervous wreck in this version of events. He will deny everything when 47 questions him, causing a Potty Emergency in the process. However, 47 can pocket some interesting trinkets after the bartender flees into the men's room.

Once the SWAT teams mop up the freighter, the voice on the radio will "initiate phase two", at which point Boris will shoot the skipper and make his threat: he's going to blow up the harbor unless he's allowed safe passage off the ship and a helicopter!

This throws a wrench into 47's mission, as The Agency doesn't want Boris brought in alive.

The first part of sticking a tracker onto the car carrying the nuke is actually optional this time around (though recommended, as you'll want to disarm the nuke so you can take Boris out without turning the harbour into a smoking crater) and actually dealing with Boris isn't the Marathon Level it was in the original game. The other Rotterdam mission in this game is only loosely connected due to Boris buying the nuke from the same gang 47 killed the leader of earlier.

Still, the fact he even does this shows a greater attention to detail than in previous games. Alternatively, 47 can snipe his targets after they're done joyriding around the base. Think you can prevent Boris from making his threat by preventing him from getting his nuke? If you take out the bikers delivering the bomb, the entire sequence speeds up: The SWAT team almost immediately assaults the ship, Boris bluffs the police into standing down anyway, and gets his escape chopper long before you have enough time to get anywhere near him.

In the opening mission of the game, you can see an inmate on the other side of a locked door waltzing around with a minigun.

It is assumed that this is the spirit of the deceased guest, whose corpse can be found in one of the nearby rooms. You may also see it while looking at a mirror in POV mode (it even waves at you). With a little luck and patience, 47 can 'kill' the ghost (er, again) and blood will spatter on the walls. You can also fiber wire the spook and drag it around like an actual body, and cops will even treat it as a dead civilian. Weird.

The bikers are making a pit stop at a bar (The Dirty Rabbit, which appears in both games) before they deliver the warhead to Boris in a car. The problem is that the Rotterdam police are fully aware of Boris' plans and are about to seize his freighter. The client (Ort-Meyer) can't allow this to happen, so you'll have to kill Boris before the police slap cuffs on him. Making your job harder are the police blockades: the workers have all gone home early and the harbor is under lockdown. As a result, most outfits are useless in the SWAT-occupied areas. Also, Boris is in possession of a nuclear explosive. Shortly after they storm the freighter, he arms the bomb to force them to comply with his demands. What's interesting about this mission is that 47 can influence how it all plays out.

Hitman: Contracts (Video Game) / int_df3b7b8	type	Delayed Explosion
Hitman: Contracts (Video Game) / int_df3b7b8	comment	Delayed Explosion: "Beldingford Manor". For the pyromaniacs out there, there's a jug of petrol sitting by the jeep as well as another in the servant's quarters. It can be made to explode when placed near a flame—a chimney, perhaps? Alistair and his guest won't know what hit them.

Hitman: Contracts (Video Game) / int_dfc36a26	comment	Dashingly Dapper Derby: The reporter in Rotterdam definitely sticks out: A pinstriped suit, bowler hat, and bright red corsage. It looks comically out-of-place in the biker bar.

Hitman: Contracts (Video Game) / int_e0c470a1	comment	The Fourth Wall Will Not Protect You: As the story begins we see a television screen with a ballistics expert named Donna Davis explaining the operation of a standard handgun in a demonstration. As the bullet in the cutscene leaves the gun there is a sharp BANG and a woman screaming as the television screen goes static.

Hitman: Contracts (Video Game) / int_e390612a	comment	Hollywood Satanism: "Meat King's Party". Bear in mind the same mission features a stylish yet highly-illegal underground opium party, full of seedy guests in horned masks and gimp suits. It's astonishing how Contracts didn't get slapped with the dreaded 18+ tag in the UK.

Hitman: Contracts (Video Game) / int_ecbf37ff	comment	Disposable Sex Worker: Implied. Among the corpses in the basement in "Rendezvous In Rotterdam" is a dead woman wearing very little. There's also nothing stopping 47 from killing the hooker in "Deadly Cargo" if the player doesn't care about their rating. Potentially can happen to Mei Ling as well in "Lee Hong Assassination". Since she isn't as nimble as 47 at jumping across balconies, she can fall to her death if 47 doesn't catch her. She can also die if the player decides to turn the mission into a shootout or just kills her just because.

Hitman: Contracts (Video Game) / int_efbd4c52	comment	All Bikers are Hells Angels: There's loads of amusing, biker-y stuff to do in Rotterdam. The gang itself is Dutch, as many American biker gangs have spread their membership into Europe. In "Rendezvous", you can spot a few Confederate flags on walls, and the room with the pole dancers is playing Clutch.

These guys will be revisited in Blood Money, though the tenor is listed under a different name here. The "Horror" Music used in the Asylum/Meat King's party has a brief snippet of Blood Money's alert music.
