From hitman.com -

The sense of satisfaction at being able to write this is almost indescribable:
“Io-Interactive announces its new game, HITMAN™, today”. The newest venture for us, Agent 47 and every single dedicated, wonderful fan of this franchise out there, is about to begin. If you somehow missed it, here’s the announcement trailer for you to enjoy.

The new game is simply called “HITMAN”. We did this because in many ways this is the start of a new journey for Hitman. Don’t think of it as a reboot, though - think of it as a pure Hitman experience and the foundation for future HITMAN games. Agent 47 is the aspirational assassin, he’s at the absolute peak of his power this time around. This is our central promise: a pure assassin fantasy. So we liked the simplicity and the power of calling this game HITMAN. We want him to be powerful and embody the fantasy completely, and he will remain a constant throughout everything we do with the games going forward.

So what is this new game? Well first off HITMAN is still a creative stealth action game, featuring the greatest assassin out there, Agent 47. As an operative of the International Contract Agency, his job is to take out high-profile targets all over the world, supported by his long-time handler Diana Burnwood. Each location in the game is a living sandbox, a place where every NPC has a name and every room matters. We’ve focused on making sure you, the players, have complete freedom of approach over how, where and when you decide to take out your target. Creativity from players is fully expected, you have the power and intelligence of Agent 47 at your fingertips and it is your choice whether to use brute force or orchestrate a genuine masterpiece of assassination.

Agent 47

Locations are more detailed, more populated and much larger than ever before, full of things to experiment with and targets to kill without any checkpoint systems in there. Contracts mode, which we’ll talk more about later in the year, returns and really shines in these big sandboxes. We’ve brought back save games, so you can save your progress anywhere, and we have revamped pretty much every system in our Glacier engine to enable this HITMAN experience. We promised you these things a while back and we’re sticking to them because they are important – and because your feedback is important. In fact, it’s so important we’re taking things a step further.

A ‘LIVE’ Experience

One of the reasons why we’re calling this a new start for HITMAN is also the idea of releasing a digitally led product. That can mean a lot of different things depending on who you are, but for us it means we’re going to make HITMAN available first via direct download.

We’re embracing what digital can offer a blockbuster game series like HITMAN – it allows us to do things that are both bold and exciting and entirely new to the Hitman experience.

We are building an expanding and evolving world of assassination. The experience will begin on December 8th and we will release new locations, missions and hits over time at regular intervals through 2016, which means we’ll all be able to share in the excitement of a new content drop at the same time. Rather than unboxing a game, playing it and then that’s sort of it, we want to deliver a true community experience - creating an ongoing and evolving game which plays out with a finale that brings the story arc together. Our primary goal is to keep HITMAN players fully engaged, so between bigger drops we will be creating one-off live events and live targets to keep you immersed in the experience.

Imagine a target appearing for every player in the world, for a limited time only… let’s say 48 hours. Where your one shot counts. And when that target is gone, it is gone forever. A shared experience where we imagine the HITMAN community will come together every time a new mission or new location appears. For $60 you’ll get full access to all of this content – everything we release as part of this story.

Another big part of this new approach is that we will develop the game with you, the players, and adjust gameplay and create live content and events based on player activity and feedback - so the game will deepen and evolve as time progresses. The experience begins on December 8th on PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC and will reach well into 2016.

Exclusives and beta
If you saw HITMAN revealed at the Sony E3 Press Conference, you heard the word “exclusive” a couple of times. We’d just quickly like to run through what that means. PlayStation 4 will be the only console where you can experience the beta and where you can play it first. A PC beta is planned to arrive a week later. The beta is available for pre-orders now. As for the PlayStation 4 exclusive contracts, they are only available to those people who own a PS4 copy of the game.

One more thing
The journey has just started for us all. We are incredibly excited to share a lot more with you as 2015 unfolds. Tomorrow, on June 16th, we’ll be showing the first gameplay trailer from HITMAN at the Square Enix Press Conference. You probably don’t want to miss that.

We’re very happy to invite you into this world of assassination. It’s a place full of challenges, contracts, hits, targets, opportunities, choices and freedom. We can’t wait to show you more!

See you in the trenches.
Io-Interactive

absolution was a complete disappointment for me, didnt live up to the hype. online contracts can be challenging though

this one looks pretty solid.

Indeed Absloution was the first Hitman I played the whole way through, it was such a addicting and un-predicitng game, hopefully this follows in the tracks of that as it was indeed a very good game.

I hope the opposite. This  game MUSNT follow the tracks of Absolution. For the hardcore fans of the franchise , Absolution was one big disappointment, dumbed down to appeal to the masses. If you want the next HITMAN to be like Absolution, just play splinter cell instead.

Post by: Archie on October 25, 2015, 12:33:07 pm
I would of want to see something following the track of Blood Money. Absolution was kind of limited by just having story mode, no? Besides, I see no challenging part in online contracts mode in Absolution.  :neutral2:

More like SHITMAN
Run like shit, 24/7 internet connection or lose your progress, and forces low graphics with a locked options menu if you got an old video card.

Graphics still look pretty good on low I have a 780 so only limited to the low setting.  Runs fine most of the time, not perfect but not horrible either.

A 780(better than recommended) is forced on low, it's clearly not the GPU.

Has frame issues here and there but only in the well crowded areas, runs fine other than that.  Optimization patch would be a welcome though.

Is it as good as Hitman 3 or 2? Considering picking it up but Absolution was just awful. Good game, but it was an awful Hitman game.

The episodes just keep getting better, Bangkok is not only visually stunning but provides more than enough opportunities to infiltrate and take out both targets.  Rumours they might do a season two but still to be confirmed.

Title: Re: HITMAN
Post by: Rusty on September 19, 2016, 09:18:35 pm
GTX780
i7 4770k
16GB RAM

I still don't get solid 60fps for the most part but I stand by saying it runs better than it did at launch.   If your still on the fence about it being a solid hitman game then worry not its in my opinion better than blood money.  Just don't buy the intro pack get the full experience.   Season 1 is coming to an end but a second is planned.
