Sandbox-type gameplay was brought back to "Hitman" by IO Interactive and they are proud they have done it after ten years, Elverdam said. It was the exciting part at the beginning of the season because they were worried how the fans would receive the game. It turned out they liked it very much.

Elverdam is confident that the players will still understand "Hitman" even if they were going to buy the whole season. He thinks that players who are going to play the game for the first time will have fun quickly than those who waited for each episode to be released. He also thinks that players who want to jump in right now are the ones who wanted to play the full package, but wanted to play at their own pace.
