Christian Elverdam, Creative Director hos Io-Interactive siger i en pressemeddelelse:
This is a true HITMAN fantasy, a highly challenging, thinking person’s game where creativity is rewarded. 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.
Spillet vil udkommer 8. december til Xbox One og Playstation 4 og vil udkomme digitalt i første omgang. Io-Interactive vil ind i 2016 løbende udvide spillet med nye missioner og nye lokationer, baseret på feedback fra spillerne. Det kan vel næsten betegnes som et spil, inddelt i episoder, uden helt at være det. Disse tilføjelser til spillet, vil dog være gratis.
Hannes Seifert, Studio Head og Executive Producer hos Io-Interactive siger:
This is new ground for HITMAN, coming out digital first enables us to do something new, bold and exciting. We are building a live, expanding and evolving world of assassination where we continuously develop the game, listening closely to the players as we release new locations, missions and hits as soon as they are ready - where $60 and not a dollar more gets you full access to the experience.
Hitman udkommer som sagt, til Xbox One og Playstation 4 den 8. december.
