-Instinct mode highlights enemies and their patrols through walls, similar to Batman: Arkham Asylum's detective mode. [Only on easy mode]
-It's powered by silent take downs.
-No big scale map screen as in previous games. Mini map still highlights points of interest New threat meter is a grey circle that wavers in directions where enemies may spot 47.
-There will be improvised weapons players can use that are unique to each location.

-This hostage taking prompted some complex AI patterns in the demo, with cops fanning out realistically to keep sight of the target.
-Levels will be divided into checkpoints for the first time.
-Some stages will be as large as in old Hitman games, others will be much smaller.
-New structure allows for greater variety and complex set pieces, as well as story driven moments.
-Having a disguise doesn't mean you'll be able to fool everybody.
-Plot will be more personal to 47, with the Hitman knowing some of his targets.
-Agent 47 and Diana will have new voice actors.
-Hand to hand combat will be involved.
-Instinct mode increases disguise effectiveness.[Easy mode]
-As cops in the demo question Agent 47′s movements while he's disguised as a police man, he enters instinct and uses his police radio to fool them.
-Each disguise has safe spots, like a box of doughnuts for police men.
-You'll be completely safe in that disguise for as long as you want.
-New engine offers on the fly editing for AI. AI will also affect group behavior.
-Whatever you do, the AI will react to that dynamically.
-The way crowds will be used will be different .
