Is it really that important? I wouldn't have been aware of this information if it had been hidden away somewhere else on the site. Thank you op for posting and bringing it to my attention, I'm sure I'm not the only person that this information has helped.

But is it free when you need PS+? Haha I guarantee that if this was put in freebies ppl would say that...

is this for anyone or just preorders?

Not forking out 30 odd quid just to get this tho lol
hopefully on xbox too as got the live on that

Nice find, is it a big download for just a weekend is it worth it?

This is exclusive to PS+ subscribers, no need to purchase or pre-order the game, so long as your are a PS Plus member you can access this.

​you must have virgin too.

​you must have virgin too.

haha
sky but im "rural"

thanks, good find... just downloading Hitman and uncharted

Not a deal, this should go in the freebies section

Agreed

Great stuff thanks for the heads up. This and uncharted 4 beta that's my weekend sorted :laughing:

Is this a multiplayer beta or like a demo with a mission? Not really interested in multiplayers for these two games

Fantastic, this is the first time I've used the remote pre-download feature on my system. Will be ready to play when I get home later.

Played this last week as I preordered. Presuming it's the same, it's just two missions but has many achievements to complete it certain ways. Worth playing!

Calling in sick this weekend

Suppose :smiley:

Was looking forward to this new hitman and was going to pre-order it, but just played this beta and its just made me change my mind. I'll wait until it's cheaper come a few months.

Im a big Hitman fan. Thanks for the heads up!

I'm so disappointed that they're releasing Hitman in this way. Beta, episodic, digital etc. I want to buy the game, on a disc, and play it beginning to end. Just like the old days ;-)

My PS Plus lapsed about six months ago. I have two years worth of codes to redeem but have not felt the need to. This piqued my interest but I have the Uncharted beta and Far Cry Primal to keep me busy this weekend. Hot for the heads up but need more than this to get me to sign up to Plus again :stuck_out_tongue:

played the beta it's great back to classic hitman still has the "instinct" crap though! cheers op!

It's available to play already?

Had the preorder beta of this and was quite impressed, frame rate was a bit shoddy but the games good and very similar to blood money.

Played it. It's good. Like the variety of ways to kill the guy on the boat!

​​can you party up with friends in the uncharted beta or is it just random matchmaking?

Thanks.

Anytime fatty

Couldn't agree more

nice one

thanks mate

Do you even have a PS? sounds like you're just a jumped up XB fanboy.

Ps+ is garbage and mine won't be renewed until uncharted 4, as beta was okay. Much prefer xbl (gold etc) Sony really need to overhaul ps+ to make it more desirable.

I personally don't understand all the PS+ comments. If you have a PS4 you need it to play online. The free games are a bonus. Got an Xbox as well but have always preferred PS.

is playstation plus the normal one that i pay £5.99 a month for? or is this something else. i really like hitman games but I'm on the normal thing which i pay to play online?

Thx op

You've made my sons weekend?

Does anyone get bored of the ps plus is crap comments on here. Surely if someone doesn't like something they should just cancel it. I don't like fish fingers but I don't bang on about how crap I think they are every time they are on hukd on offer. Its quite simple I just don't buy them.

Me and my son love PS PLUS so there. <3

If that's the Single Player game to come it's basically the same as the others with a different story. Looks about the same and I'll be damned if that ship kitchen isn't the same as the boat kitchen on the last Hitman game. :smile:

Thanks but you know it's a lean weekend for decent deals when a beta demo is top spot on HD UK with Wilco lube number 3.

Thanks

A jumped up xbox fanboy? Seriously?
It's called an opinion.
Yes I own a ps otherwise I wouldn't have found the 'deal' and posted about the game.

All too common online these days, a different opinion translates into fanboyism! Personally I find ps plus disappointing. We had good free games on PS3 and online gaming was free- now it's a flat £40 and the PS4 offerings tend to be poor most months.

Well said. On ps3 it was superb and still is. Suppose in a few years we might start getting good games again but think some of the early games like kill overshadow fall should now be on plus!

Voted Hot for finding. Thought the trailer looked amazing but very disappointed with the beta graphics and thought the dialog was pathetic. Not for me UC4 all the way!

Any news on whether Hitman: Absolution is going to make it onto Xbox One backwards compatibility? Ta.

Thanks OP.
Would have missed this being in the free section. Unplugged ps4 to setup computer and at work at the moment so will probably not be downloaded by end of weekend.

Yeah I totally agree. I think they are missing a trick just now. There all full retail, albeit average, games we should have had already to boost the line up. Killzone, the first Need for Speed etc. They could even throw in Evolve, a game that's clearly dying as its online only, it would boost the online community to get people back into it. I know Microsoft done something with Titanfall once it's online element was waning, it wasn't free, but reduced to £5-10 for the digital version?! I guess so many people are buying the console that they think these games will still sell at a fair price. Got both betas downloading just now, Hitman is tempting!

I think we have a few xbox fan boys who are still upset call
Of Duty DLC is now exclusive to PS4 a month earlier ! Lol ps plus is a decent enough service, everythink these days is subscription based

Just been playing through this, absolutely loving it. It's like they took the best of Absolution and the best of Blood Money and turned them into the game I've been craving for years.

Wow, some real Xbox owners hating here. Just lap it up folks.

​think YOU are the fan boy here buddy

Erm.

PC Ftw?

:smile:

Can it only be played this weekend or is it only available to download this weekend?

Graphics are ridiculously poor for Ps4. Absolution graphics on PS3 were so much better. How many times and they still haven't been able to get it right?

Good to see I'm not the only person with slow internet. Bought the digital edition of COD AW and it took 3 days solid to download

I get 6mg so its not the worst but compared to what some get that's bad!

Is this beta story mode or multiplayer?

Possibly a very dumb question I know as I'm not even sure there is any multiplayer.

I've never played any Hitman title in all the years I been gaming

After the opening moments i thought this had the potential to be excellent, but then it slipped down badly in my opinion. The graphics aren't great, the gunplay isn't great, the stealth isn't great....

I think the training mission areas don't do the game any favours, they are so bland and sterile.

It's on the start page of PS+... not sure how people miss this stuff! :smiley: But if it helps someone then no reason why it shouldn't be on here!

I used to want this game, after playing this I will give it a miss. Mind numbingly easy and boring... Granted it's only the demo, but with this AI, it's laughable what you can get away with without any thinking on your feet! Shame.

I don't go on ps+ everyday so there's a good chance some other people don't either. I'm grateful for the info provided, and it seems other people are too.
