Hitman’s beta needs an internet connection, but the full game doesn’t

11 Feb 2016

Square Enix today confirmed that a constant internet connection is required for Hitman’s upcoming beta.

That doesn’t apply to the full game, for the most part.

“Yes, you can play the full game offline after you have downloaded an episode,” Square Enix told  VideoGamer. “But there are live elements which you will need to access online.”

Hitman goes into beta on 12 February for PS4 and 19 February for Windows PC. It’ll be available from 11 March on PS4, Xbox One and Windows PC.

Steve's the owner and Editor-in-Chief of Stevivor.com, the country’s leading independent video games outlet. Steve arrived in Australia back in 2001 on what was meant to be a three-month working holiday before deciding to emigrate and, eventually, becoming a citizen.

Stevivor is a combination of ‘Steve’ and ‘Survivor’, which made more sense back in 2001 when Jeff Probst was up in Queensland. The site started as Steve’s travel blog before transitioning over into video games.

Aside from video games, Steve has interests in hockey and Star Trek, playing the former and helping to cover video games about the latter on TrekMovie.com. By day, Steve works as the communications manager of the peak body representing Victorians as they age.
