Published on Jan 11, 2012 by

The deadly and infamous assassin "47" returns in the new game Hitman: Absolution. IGN Editor Ryan Clements was lucky enough to get some time with the title and goes over the major changes developer IO Interactive has made to the series play style. Gone are large, sprawling levels and cluttered mini-maps, replaced now with a streamlined "Instinct" view, in which 47 can predict the path of enemies and the layout of maps. Will these changes breathe fresh air and innovation to the series or hurt its fan loved sand-box freedom? We'll have to wait until later in 2012 to see, as there is no official release date yet from publishers Square Enix/Eidos.

Use your instinct and head over to IGN for more info:

  • the only thing i ask from the devs is that they don't make it too linear. i dont want to start at the front door, move through the house, kill the mark, find the exit.

    if anything, they should learn more from the prequels (especially 2 and contracts) and make the gameplay affected by weather conditions (totally unique to each attempt), time of day (eg. waiting outside with binoculars until darkness falls, then making a move) please dont fuck up hitman like splinter cell or fallout NV. (IMHO!!)

  • the guy in the video said that in the older games u had mini map, false u had a great map and i will miss it in hitman absolution
