What Is Hitman 2's Ghost Mode? (Not "Dome Games")

Hitman 2 Ghost Mode Explained

You're likely referring to Ghost Mode, the 1v1 competitive multiplayer in Hitman 2. It is not called "Dome Games."

How Ghost Mode Works

• Asynchronous Competition: Both players hunt the same targets on the same map but in separate "realities"—you see a "ghost" of your opponent's position/actions but cannot interact directly.
• Scoring: Points for kills, specific methods (accidents, poison), disguises, and avoiding detection. Bonus challenges rotate each match.
• Time Limit: Typically 10–15 minutes per round.
• Win Condition: First to 5 points (or most when time expires) wins.

Variants

• Standard Match: Classic 1v1.
• Escalation Contracts: Progressive difficulty with modifiers.
• Elusive Targets: Limited-time unique targets (single attempt).

Similar Competitive Stealth Games

• Splinter Cell: Blacklist — Spies vs. Mercs: Asymmetrical team stealth/action.
• Metal Gear Solid V — FOB Missions: Infiltrate other players' bases.
• Deceit / Among Us: Social deduction with stealth elements.

Ghost Mode's ghostly 1v1 stealth duel remains unique in the genre.
