Suit for Hire

mt top

Hey kiddo, Handsome Jack here... and I just played Suit for Hire, and apparently somebody decided that John Wick wasn't sufficiently corporate, so they made a game about putting on a nice suit and then proceeding to murder an entire building full of people. Finally. Professional attire. Professional violence. Professionalism. You play as some extremely well-dressed psychopath who walks into a room and immediately turns every criminal inside into a workplace safety incident. Guns, melee weapons, executions, slow-motion takedowns... this guy doesn't enter a building. He conducts an audit. And the combat is fantastic. Everything is fast, brutal, and ridiculously satisfying. You shoot one guy, grab his weapon, shoot another, throw something at a third, kick someone into a wall, and suddenly you're standing in the middle of a room surrounded by bodies looking like you just completed a very aggressive quarterly restructuring. That's efficiency. The gunplay feels great, but the melee combat is where the game really shines. There's something deeply satisfying about disarming someone, stealing their weapon, and immediately using it to solve the next problem. At Hyperion, we call that resource management. And the levels are basically playgrounds for violence. You look around and see weapons, objects, enemies, doors, furniture... Everything is an opportunity. Everything is a tool. Everything is also probably about to become covered in blood. The aesthetic is fantastic too. The whole thing has that stylish action-movie feel where everyone apparently agreed that wearing a suit while committing mass murder is completely normal. Honestly? It works. The biggest issue is that it's still a relatively small experience, and you can definitely feel the limitations of its scope. But that's not necessarily a bad thing. It gets to the point quickly and doesn't waste your time with unnecessary nonsense. You want to shoot people? Here's a gun. You want to punch people? Here's a guy. You want to feel like the world's most stylish psychopath? Here's a suit. 9/10, kiddo. Fast, stylish, violent, satisfying, and exactly the kind of game that makes you think, “I should probably stop playing this.” And then you immediately start another run. I'd give it a 10, but apparently the game doesn't let me purchase the entire building and convert it into a Hyperion corporate headquarters. Honestly? Terrible real estate management. The suits are nice, though. Very professional.
