7: Welcome to Hope | Challenges Hitman: Absolution Guide

Last update: 11 May 2016

Chameleon

General assumptions: You must use all three disguises available in the seventh game mission.

Hope policeman disguise is easy to obtain. Attack one of cops in the toilet, right from the starting place.

Truck driver disguise might be obtained after starting the bar fight, by attacking one of characters in the main bar room and taking it after winning the fists duel.

Hope bar bouncer disguise can be also obtained after starting the bar fight. Also in this case you should attack the right person and take his clothes after winning the fists duel.

Evidence Collector

General assumptions: You must find evidence.

The only evidence which you can find in the Great Balls of Fire stage is located in a locked room, adjacent to the main bar area. You can get there by crawling through the ventilation shaft or using a keycard taken from one of bouncers.

Infiltrator

General assumptions: You can't be spotted. In order to complete this challenge you have to reach bartender without starting the fight and not being spotted by truck drivers, bouncers and cops in the bar. It is best to move around disguised as a policeman, using Instinct when needed.

Suit Only

General assumptions: You can't use disguises. It is best to complete this challenge along with making a decision to start the bar fight, because then you have an access to all bar areas and you can stay in the default Hitman's suit.

Chew the Fat

General assumptions: Get to the Bartender without starting a bar fight. All actions required to fulfill this challenge can be found earlier in the walkthrough (Getting to the bartender without a fight subchapter).

Clear the Air

General assumptions: Turn off the jukebox and get to the bartender without participating in any fists duels.

As for a reminder, the juke box can be turned off by pulling a lever located in toilets, right from the starting place.

As for avoiding fists duels, start with crossing the ventilation shaft. After getting to the main bar area, slowly move along the right wall, not approaching aggressive characters, who do not fight anyone right now. Also use the newly created hole in the right wall (screen above) to avoid the last large group of enemies.

Ali

General assumptions: Knock out all the bouncers in the bar.

Bouncers are wearing jackets with STAFF sign on them (screen above). It is best to attack them after starting the bar fight, especially that you only have to subdue them and not to kill.

Duck and Cover

General assumptions: After starting the bar fight get to the bartender without getting hit. That means that you have to completely avoid hostile characters or not to fail while pressing keys/buttons in each fists duel.

Just Passing Through

General assumptions: This challenge is automatically unlocked after completing the Welcome to Hope mission.
