Where is Hitman 2: Silent Assassin set?

2002 video game

Hitman 2: Silent Assassin — 1 real place Wikipedia files it under as its setting, in Russia. Wikidata records no setting for this game at all, so this is a category rather than a statement, and it is labelled that way below. Where the game takes place, not where it was made: a game is filmed nowhere, so this is the only kind of location it has.

Places per Wikipedia — “Video games set in Saint Petersburg” category

Wikipedia’s “Video games set in Saint Petersburg” category lists 1 place. A category is an editor’s judgement rather than a sourced statement, so these are listed apart, never mixed into the statement list, and the claim links straight to where it came from.

Places whose own article says it is set there

1 place whose own Wikipedia article names this game, where Wikidata records nothing and this game’s own article does not say so either. The weakest evidence on this atlas: no pin on the map, and nothing in the downloads. Each sentence is quoted whole and linked to the article it came from, so it can be judged rather than taken on trust.
