Hitman

Hitman is an Activity in Saints Row and Saints Row 2.

This article is about {{{this article is about}}}. For {{{for}}}, see [[{{{see}}}]].

Description

In Saints Row, Hitman is one of if not the hardest activities in the game, as searching for a target around the city, could take a few hours or even days in real time. The activity was designed so that missions or other activities could be done whilst waiting for the targets to show up. The activity is easier in Saints Row 2, with most targets having a fixed location or a way of luring them out.

After getting the list of targets from the client, it is added to the Activities menu. Targets can be killed at any time, but are more easily located by adding them to the HUD.

Most targets only spawn at certain locations, but some spawn anywhere in Stilwater.

Saints Row

In Saints Row, targets must be killed with a certain weapon.

Los Carnales (Wardill Airport)

Deb: "Don't ask questions, just come with me."

Deb leads The Protagonist to a table.

Deb: "This...is for you."

She opens a briefcase full of money and turns it towards The Protagonist.

Deb: "If... you kill him."

She drops a photo on top of the money.

Deb: "Right now I'm willing to bet you're thinking one of two things. Either your[sic] thinking, "There's no way I can kill someone who's done nothing to me" or you're thinking, "How am I gonna spend all that cash". Let me tell you something sweetie, the second thought is gonna get you farther in this world."

Marcel: "I'm glad you could make it...One of my niggas is in trouble and I need you to help. He's got a big court case comin' up and the prosecutor has a whole line of witnesses that could put him away...needless to say, that ain't gonna happen. I got a list of all the witnesses and I'll pay you for each one you can take out. That straight with you?"

Hitman - Lost In Translation - Wong and Translator — Wong and Translator

Westside Rollerz (Chinatown)

Translator: "Your table is this way, sir."

The Translator leads The Protagonist to Mr. Wong's table. Mr. Wong speaks in Mandarin, and the Translator translates it for The Protagonist.

Translator (translating): "My name is Wong Sheng Tai, welcome to my teahouse...please, sit down."

The Protagonist takes a seat, and Mr. Wong continues speaking in Mandarin.

Translator (translating): "It is an honor to meet you; it is rare in this country to find someone with your tenacity."

Photos are in front of The Protagonist, and Mr. Wong continues speaking in Mandarin.

Translator (translating): "Contained inside are the specifics about a group of men who have wronged my family...go and speak to them, but they are not to be harmed."

The Translator is immediately shot in the leg and he falls over screaming. Mr. Wong calmly places his gun on the table.

Mr. Wong (in English): "He heard me wrong. I wish for them all to be dead...do we have a deal?"

Trivia

If the game is saved immediately after killing the last target on a list without allowing the reward screen to appear, reload the game causes the reward for completing the activity to be lost.
Doing activities raises the chances of the targets spawning. A random target may appear in area, regardless the specified area. Killing them with the correct weapon and finishing the activity rewards Cash and Respect from the client as well as the completed activity.
Hitman is not included in the German or Japanese versions of the game.

Saints Row 2

Map icon

In Saints Row 2, targets still appear on the map if not selected in the HUD.

Some targets require performing a certain action before they spawn, so it is important to read the details in the target list.

Sometimes, the target uses a decoy. After killing the decoy, the real target spawns.
