Hitman: Contracts
From Hitman Wiki
Hitman: Contracts is the third game of the Hitman series. Hitman: Contracts delivers more action-packed and suspense-filled missions, with a greater variety of ways to make the perfect kill and an increased arsenal of firearms and close-combat weapons.
The players assume, as usual, the role of Agent 47, one of the most ruthlessly efficient contract killers in gaming history. Beginning in Paris, the game sees 47 in a vulnerable situation, and promises to be the most disturbing episode in the series. A new graphics engine showcases your 'work' in brutal detail, and brings the new locations to life. An improved control system and more gradual learning curve will ensure that the game is accessible to all aspiring hitmen.

The game opens up with Mr. 47, shot in the stomach and staggering towards his designated hotel room in Paris. He collapses and has memories of his previous assignments to which all of the missions in Contracts other than Hunter and Hunted are.
Although not a direct follow-up of the Hitman series' first game, Codename 47, it does fill in some of the gaps in the Hitman storyline following the end of Codename 47, as well as most of the levels from Codename 47 being remastered and incorporated into the game.
