[Benita Vandervoort]

Hitman2:Silent Assassin is a third-person action/stealth combo revolving around a bald-headed assassin known as Agent 47, who works for the International Contract Agency (also known as "The Agency"), a conglomerate of professional assassins who provide their services to wealthy or otherwise influential customers.

In the game, 47 is given a set of objectives to complete. Most levels require the assassination of one or more people. However, how missions are completed is up to the player, and there are almost always a variety of ways to complete missions. Instead of simply running and gunning through the mission, one can set traps, like poisoning a drink, to terminate the target in silence. Some missions have assassination possibilities unique to the level.

Before any assignment, the player is provided with a briefing, consisting of intelligence on the target, a map detailing the area where 47 is to encounter the target, and a list of weapons that they can take on the mission. The briefing is managed by 47's controller, Diana Burnwood, at the Agency. The intelligence is usually comprised of a picture of the target, sometimes video footage as well.

The game relies heavily on the disguise system. 47 can find disguises or remove them from an incapacitated person in order to blend in with his surroundings, access restricted areas, to pass by security unnoticed (unless he's too close to them) and wield weapons almost freely, depending on the disguise. This plays in with the "suspicion" system; a bar beside the health meter on the HUD represents how much suspicion 47 garners. There are multiple ways to blend in more effectively. 47's cover can be blown if suspicion gets too high, and the disguise will no longer be of any use. It is possible to switch between multiple disguises throughout the level.

Note: While the general plot of Silent Assassin follows a distinct path, many elements such as the assassination methods and character interactions are subject to the player's decisions. The game offers several events and methods to targets, along with multiple decisions based on the sandbox gameplay. This story synopsis concentrates on the main plot thread of the game the player would generally encounter on their first time playing.

Sergei Zavorotko and a Mystery Man talk on a cargo ship about someone the mystery man saw in Rotterdam. They went to Dr. Ort-Meyer's cloning lab/mental asylum in Romania and found everybody inside dead. They found a few tapes that showed Agent 47 strangling an Romanian SWAT member and dragging his body to corner with a Fiber Wire and shooting down more Romanian SWAT members and an orderly. After watching the tapes, the mystery man concluded that the killer was none other than Agent 47, and Sergei decided to hire him, before leaving the building.

After spending some years as a legendary hitman, 47 decided to leave his life as a contract killer and retreated to a Sicilian church owned by Father Emilio Vittorio. Many rumors arose about his death while being extremely wealthy. However, he worked as a humble gardener at the church. Soon, Vittorio became a friend of 47, and 47 decided to confess his past to Vittorio. After his confession, a car arrived at the church, with two persons inside. One of the persons assaulted Vittorio and kidnaped him, before leaving a ransom of 500,000 dollars. Unable to pay that price, 47 contacted the ICA (International Contract Agency), much to their surprise, and agreed to perform an assassination mission for information about the whereabouts of Vittorio. He got information from the Agency that Vittorio was held hostage in the basement of the villa belonging to the leader of Sicilian mafia, Guessipi Gulliani. 47 infiltrated the Villa Borghese and killed Gulliani, but failed to find Vittorio in the basement room. The agency confirmed this by describing recent satellite footage showing the priest being dragged away by four bearded Russian looking men in uniform, where he was later lost at an airport.

To repay his debt to the Agency, 47 accepted an assignment which entailed the assassination of an ex-KGB Russian general, Rinat S. Rumyantsev at a meeting in St. Petersburg. After the demise of the general, the remaining generals, started their own investigation of the murder of their fellow. This was used as an excuse by Sergei Zavorotko to get them all eliminated. First, 47 was sent after General Makarov, who was trying to get some protection by his mafia contact Igor Kobasko, in order to find the assailant. Both of them were eliminated by 47 while having a meeting at the Kirov park in St. Petersburg.

After Makarov's assassination, 47 was contacted once more to eliminate another General, Mikhail Bardachenko at his secret underground bunker, as well as free his interrogated prisoner, who was later revealed to be Agent Smith. Following this 47 was sent to the German Embassy in St. Petersburg , where he had to kill Vladimir Zhupikov, last general from the meeting, who had defected to Germany. In addition, 47 was also ordered to retrieve a briefcase containing some a missile guidance system that the general was presumed to sell to the highest bidder in the west. Due to his defection, however, Russians were also enraged, and sent a Spetsnaz Agent to retrieve the briefcase. Nevertheless, 47 successfully completed his task.

After the hit on the last General, 47 negotiated a payment raise and accepted more contracts from the Agency. He was ordered to eliminate a Japanese criminal mastermind and arms dealer, Masahiro Hayamoto. However, since his location was unknown, 47 was forced to kill his son, Masahiro Hayamoto Jr., and place a tracking device in his body, eventually leading him to his actual target when his son's corpse was taken to him. After travelling a long way through Masahiro's highly fortified stronghold in central Japan, which involved disabling the alarm units before entering the castle, 47 was able to take him out and obtain a missile guidance system he had.

Following Hayamoto's assassination, 47 was ordered to eliminate a Malaysian hacker Charlie Sidjan, who was believed to have stolen a valuable piece of military software. After eliminating his presumed target in his headquarters' basement, 47 found out that the person he killed wasn't his target, but the target's twin brother. After placing a hacking device in his main computer terminal in order to retrieve the software, Sergei Zavorotko found out that the software had already been passed on to an Indian Cult, but couldn't do anything about them. 47 successfully eliminated Charlie Sidjan and escaped Malaysia.

47 was then contacted again to retrieve some cargo stolen by Afghan Rebels and hidden in the desert of Afghanistan. He was ordered to acquire the coordinates of the cargo as well as its keys, from two high ranking officials, before eliminating their leader to prevent him selling the cargo to UN, and finally retrieving the cargo from an underground base, where he was also ordered to assassinate the lieutenant, Yussef Hussein.

The cargo, however, was stolen again by Sikh cultists, and Agent 17(showing that Sergei Zavorotko was also involved to get an excuse to get them eliminated by 47). 47 was sent to the Temple City in Punjab, India to perform a hit on their leader, Deewana Ji. With help from Agent Smith, 47 was able to infiltrate the Cult Leader's sacred Gurduvara, where he eliminated his personal physician, Hannelore von Kamprad, without alerting anyone, and then the Hospital, where he was scheduled to undergo a heart surgery. Despite extremely tough security, 47 was able to assassinate his target. Upon escaping, Agent 47 was attacked by an unknown bald assailant oddly resembling himself, who is later revealed to be Agent 17, whose plan was to lure 47 into a trap where he had set up explosives to kill him. However, 47 was able to successfully repel the attack and escape.

Soon after the homicide of Deewana Ji, the Agency found out that all of 47's previous contracts were ordered by same client, Sergei Zavorotko, brother of one of 47's genetic fathers, Arkadij "Boris" Jegorov. It was revealed that he was a world terrorist and arms dealer. All of 47's targets were individuals who were involved in a transaction of a nuclear warhead Sergei has bought recently, and that the items 47 was ordered to "retrieve" were all components of two nuclear missiles, which Sergei was planning to sell to a Sikh sect in Punjab, India. The warheads had key signature software that would fool the Americans into thinking the warheads were theirs, and therefore bypass the American missile defense system. Sergei, who had ties to the Russian government and military, needed to eliminate everyone involved in the deal, and therefore, offered 47 the contracts as the client. However, at the end, when the Sikh Cult betrayed him by stealing the cargo, he offered a contract to kill the Cult Leader as a revenge.

Ordered by the UN, despite them having no mandate, the Agency ordered 47 to kill Zavorotko at his head-office in St. Petersburg. This was actually planned by Sergei Zavorotko and the Mystery Man to bait 47 and get him eliminated by 17. Despite not expecting him, upon arriving there, 47 found Agent 17 again. 47 was able to kill him, and found out that he was one of 47's genetic brothers, Agent 17, another cloned assassin by Dr. Ort-Meyer. 47 then told Sergei, who was handling 17, to get off his back, and threatened to slit his throat. However, instead of that Sergei further provoked 47, and revealed that he had Vittorio. 47 lost his cool, and told Sergei that involving Vittorio was his biggest mistake.

47 arrived at the church. Sergei deployed several of his best bodyguards, but 47 killed all of them. In the end, 47 also killed Zavorotko, and shot his dead body again with his ballers, as a way of venting out his anger. Vittorio gave 47 his rosary and begged him to follow a good path but the Assassin decided that he was incapable of finding inner peace, and thus, left the rosary on the church door, resuming his life as a Hitman.
