Although David Bateson's dumping from Hitman: Absolution was already known, it fell to a fan to contact the voice actor to discover how unceremoniously IO Interactive had dumped the voice of Agent 47.

IO Interactive has had some big things to celebrate this fall, including the 25th anniversary of its "Hitman" franchise.

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.

IO Interactive art director Rasmus Poulsen tells Pocket Tactics how Patrick Gibson's James Bond is influenced by unexpected places in 007 First Light.
I mean as someone who grew up playing all the 007 ganes, this fits right in. The games have always been like that. Start slow and sneaky, sh#t hits the fan and it turns onto an action set piece.
I really hope in the future any other Bond games made by different developers will use their own Bond and Universe rather than just using whoever is playing Bond in the films. It's a video game, they should have the freedom to do their own take rather than being restricted by what the films are doing.
Hopefully outfits and Easter eggs found in this game won't just all be of Craigs era, really want to see some original Sean Connery stuff.
Hmmmmm, if this is true i dont think im gonna be buyin Hitman V
