Hitman: Blood Money
Moderate overall intensityWhat's in it
Scattered moderate profanity in cutscenes and NPC dialogue.
Realistic assassination violence with blood pools and close-range executions of human targets; players shoot, stab, strangle, drown, and stage lethal 'accidents,' though there is no dismemberment.
Alcohol is served and consumed at parties and social venues, and the player can lace drinks or food with poison to kill targets.
A bleak, gritty story built around contract murder-for-hire, human cloning, betrayal and a faked death and funeral.
The player is a professional assassin who is paid to murder assigned targets, with cleaner, quieter kills earning larger rewards.
Some missions set at resort parties and a mansion feature suggestive situations and characters in revealing attire; nothing explicit is shown.
Party and social missions include characters in revealing or fetish attire.

What it is
Hitman: Blood Money is a 2006 stealth-action game in which you control Agent 47, a cloned contract killer working for a shadowy agency. Each mission drops you into an open level with one or more targets and lets you decide how to reach them: disguising yourself, sneaking past guards, using a silenced pistol, or rigging elaborate 'accidents' like a falling chandelier or a tampered grill. The action is realistic and often lethal, with gunfire, close-range kills and visible blood, though it stops short of gore. Along the way you'll pass through resort parties, a winery, an opera house and a Las Vegas hotel where alcohol, drug use, mild profanity and some suggestive party scenes appear. The story is dark and morally grim, centered on murder-for-hire, cloning and betrayal. It is entirely single-player with no online chat or purchases.
How it's framed
The game presents assassination as a cold, professional craft: you are rewarded with money and a 'Silent Assassin' rank for killing quietly and cleanly, and penalized for being reckless, noisy or harming innocent bystanders. It frames 47 as an emotionless instrument rather than a hero, and its gritty tone treats the killings and the surrounding corruption without glamour or celebration.
