Hitman 5: Absolution details revealed!

So its finally upon us. Hitman 5 is on its way. Square Enix revealed today the teaser above and also some minor details.

“Hitman Absolution follows Agent 47, a cold blooded assassin, who takes on his most dangerous contract to date. Betrayed by those he trusted and hunted by the police, he finds himself at the centre of a dark conspiracy and must embark on a personal journey through a corrupt and twisted world, in his search for the truth.”

“For the first time we are taking Agent 47 on a personal journey which allows us to explore other parts of the Hitman® fantasy,” said Tore Blystad, game director, IO Interactive. “This is both a familiar and yet significantly different experience from other Hitman games; something our silent assassins will relish, as will all those new to the Hitman world.”

Thanks to the wonderful people at Gamersmint it can now be confirmed that Hitman 5 is on its way.

With IO's new proprietary engine "Glacier 2." This game will boast a more cinematic feel with a deeper more personal story.

There is a more proper reveal scheduled for tomorrow so I'll throw the details up as I get them.

Expect a full showing at E3 this year!
