X360A - It’s almost time. For more than half a decade Agent 47 has been lurking in the shadows, waiting for his moment to strike. Now Hitman: Absolution is just a few short months away.
Here we talk to producer Luke Valentine about that six year gap, whether the game is forgetting Hitman’s stealthy roots, and IO interactive’s attempt to bring Absolution to the masses. They’re not being shy about it either. IO want Hitman to sell in “huge, huge volumes.”
Feral Interactive will release IO Interactive-developed stealth action game Hitman: Absolution for Switch on November 13 for $29.99 / £19.99 / €24.99, the developer announced.
When Hitman 3 recently changed its name to Hitman World of Assassination, fans had no idea how meaningful the moment was. On the outside it looked like a simple thing: Hitman 3 would now be known by this name and include levels from Hitman 2 and 3 - the trilogy would all be in one place. But on the inside, at IO Interactive, much more was going on.
You mean destroyed it with this tethered single-player campaign BS... And only the first few levels of the third modern game were on the disc! I'll never support this crap at any price-point! They've lost me as a customer.
The last 10 years of Hitman have been full of highs and lows. And David Bateson and Jane Perry have been there with the series through this eventful decade.
Hitman is, and has been, a remarkable series developed by some of the best. Some are better than others, but every Hitman is challenging and fun.
Sure, there have been some stumbles and fumbles, but always in pursuit of the perfect Hitman game. The most recent trilogy is a masterclass in level design.
I cant wait for this game. I love the hitman series. This one will be different in some ways but overall it will be good I think
i don't know, hints?
