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.

Showcasing IO Interactive's new proprietary Glacier 2 technology, the game has been built from the ground up, boasting a cinematic story, distinctive art direction and highly original game design.

Geez that's impressive, hitman games are always good fun and this one seems to push the cinematic feel of things big time. Really looking forward to this.

This seems to play a lot like Batman... Without your batbelt. Looks real nice

Watched the Run for Your Life demo yesterday and it looked awesome. Not sure about the killing cops part though.

Eh not the first game where the cops get killed, you can probably get through that whole thing with out killing aswell by the looks of it.

@Woofels I know, but it was a bit jarring. Generally killing cops is bad, especially as that paints a huge target on your back so would like to see that sort of thing come through in the game. The way they did the end of that level where he blends into the crowd at the train station was awesome, for once I am really looking forward to a Hitman game.

Pretty cool community initiative for fans of Hitman:


http://www.barcode-society.com/

The Barcode Society

Dedicated to all things Hitman, The Barcode Society is run by IO Interactive to give fans a place to exchange information about their favourite assassin.

The Barcode Society Blog will give you quick access to the latest Hitman news and behind-the-scenes access starting with our ‘2011 World Tour’. On top of that, we’ve got developer interviews, cool assets, exclusive competitions and other goodies that you can’t find anywhere else.

Most importantly, The Barcode Society is built for you and we want to give you a voice on the site. We’ve set up forums so that you can share your views and you can register on the site to allow for comments and getting access to future features.

A Personal Contract

Featured on The Barcode Society right now is our latest trailer from December: A Personal Contract. Premiered at the Video Game Awards, it was created entirely from in-engine footage and features Agent 47 caught in the middle of a brutal raid as he attempts to fulfil the dying wish of his ICA handler, Diana Burnwood.

All of the previous trailers, including those from older Hitman games, can be found in The Vault section of The Barcode Society alongside community videos, screenshots, wallpapers and concept artwork.

A new Hitman Absolution screen shows what the game’s larger areas will be like and reveals a new Chinatown location. Presumably at Chinese New Year. It’s all part of IO’s Glacier 2 engine which has been developed partially to enable the team to create large populated areas.

The new engine was developed specifically for Hitman Absolution and will apparently be able to manage 1200 individual charecters at 30 FPS on PS3. You’ll also have some interaction with individuals apparently albeit in a limited fashion
