Fisher can now vanish into crowds, and use enemy surroundings against them. In Edge Magazine&rsquo;s review, they were impressed that players could turn any environment into a &ldquo;torture chamber.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>The game is already enjoying a highly positive reception, with the likes of IGN awarding it 93\/100. 1UP gave it 91\/100, Game Informer 90\/100, Edge 8\/10, and Gamespot 80\/100.
