Challenge Focus

Thank you for printing this page from www.SuperCheats.com. Remember to come back to check for updates to this guide and much more content for Hitman: Absolution
 
 
Last Updated:

Each of the different game sections includes a list of Challenges – basically bonus objectives – that can be unlocked by complying with the conditions for each. Note though that in some sections there are challenges that contradict each other, which means that to unlock all of the challenges for that section you will have to replay it again (possibly several times).

While each of the Challenges is addressed in the walkthrough guide, they are also listed here - the idea being you can print this list out and use it as a ticklist for keeping track of the challenges you have already unlocked...
