I'm correct in thinking that this is entirely useless if you don't have Hitman 2 [2018]?
Might end up driving sales.
I'm not sure. The package comes with Hitman 2: Prologue which will let you play the Hitman "Legacy levels," but not the new ones from Hitman 2.
Then again...
I really don't know. This whole Legacy pack stuff has been screwy for me, to be honest. I redeemed the Legacy pack in the in-game store of Hitman
2 2016 a couple days ago, which came with Hitman 2 prologue and downloaded it, but it wouldn't let me launch it.
It let me download
all the legacy maps, including the GotY stuff before I got the GotY Legacy Pack from OP, I'm guessing since I have the GotY version of Hitman 1, but it didn't let me redeem for the "GotY Legacy Pack," only the regular one.
All I can say is that my copy of Hitman 2 won't arrive until tomorrow, but I've been playing Hitman 2: Prologue and redoing the Hitman 1 first two levels all day (
all are unlocked, I just don't know the later levels as much, I'm getting achievements done already too).
edit: correction
