The game releases in January 2021

January will be a little busy for the video game industry. The first month of the year usually has a quiet rhythm, often without big shots and that are very popular. 2021 doesn't follow a very different path than the one we're used to, but some titles are interesting and can offer good hours of fun.

Xbox Series X/S and PC players will receive The Medium as a good Microsoft exclusive, being one of the highlights of the month. In the Blooper Team game, players take control of a medium capable of living between the real world and the spirit world. The journey, which features a soundtrack by Arkadiusz Reikowski (Blooper Team) and legend Akira Yamaoka (Silent Hill), will introduce you to a journey where you will realize that everything has another side and nothing has a simple truth. Tormented by visions of the murder of a child, the main character leaves for an abandoned hotel where, many years before, a tragedy occurred. So she begins her journey in search of answers.

Following the initial planning, The Medium would have already been released. However, some time ago Blooper Team postponed the launch of the title due to Covid-19 in Poland.

Despite The Medium being an interesting title, the big release for January is undoubtedly Hitman 3. The game will come to close the Agent 47 trilogy, taking the professional assassin to the most important contracts of his career.

Hitman 3 promises to offer even greater freedom than the first titles, placing the player in exotic, beautiful and very well-detailed environments, offering several possibilities to complete their objectives. The game should have a great replay factor, as each mission can be carried out in different and exciting ways. It will also be possible to load all maps from the two previous titles, allowing the player to have all the locations at their disposal to explore in the third chapter, in addition, progress in Hitman 2 will be carried directly to Hitman 3.
