The music is 100% crafted by Niels Bye Nielsen, who has been working in VGM for nearly 20 years and has also worked on albums for Steve Vai and Devin Townsend. Much like the Danish studio’s brand-new title, the *HITMAN World of Assassination* soundtrack pays tribute to cult spy movie tracks. Often understated, it allows players to immerse themselves in the atmosphere of each level and plan their next move. As a worthy successor to Jesper Kyd, electronic music also plays a major role in several high-tension tracks, kicking in particularly during shootouts or chase scenes. The soundtrack is being distributed across platforms by Laced Records, who has previously released the vinyl editions for earlier major *Hitman* installments. I wouldn't be surprised if a new boxset dedicated to *World of Assassination* gets announced in the coming days.
