    Betrayed by those he trusted and hunted by the police, Agent 47 finds himself at the center of a dark conspiracy and must embark on a personal journey through a corrupt and twisted world, in his search for the truth.

    IO game director Tore Blystad adds: “For the first time we are taking Agent 47 on a personal journey which allows us to explore other parts of the Hitman fantasy and he went on to say:

    This is both a familiar and yet significantly different experience to any of the other Hitman games, something our silent assassins will relish as well as those who are new to the Hitman world.
