IO Interactive is "working around the clock" to fix a bug in the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions of Hitman Absolution which causes players' save data to become corrupt.
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.
Maybe they should have fixed it before releasing it. Amazed no one in QA caught that one.
@ barb_wire:
the sad thing is that QA/the compliance team probably found this issue, and the devs sluffed it off as either "a tester bug" or not severe/common enough to try and fix...
How many games are going to release with the same exact bug before devs start thinking "perhaps we should test the saving in QA before releasing it....."
I must of been lucky I have completed the game and didn't experience any problems on the ps3
They should move the clock. It's just getting in the way.
