Hitman Absolution Launch Trailer: How Many Lives Will You Take to Save One?

Not enough corpses in the world, really?

Update: This video is no longer available.

Hitman: Absolution is due for a worldwide release on PC, PS3 and Xbox 360 on November 20th. Developed by IO Interactive and published by Square-Enix, the Original Assassin returns to protect a valued target and discover the reason for his controller going rogue.

All this while wild Texans, the ICA and killer nuns pursue him of course.

The game is already receiving rave reviews but really, if you can do even half the things revealed in the trailer in any other game, it would be a must buy too. In short: Disguises, sniping, heavy weapons, street fights, samurai swords, assassinations, sneaking, manipulation, domination, dual wielding, bullet timing and oh so much more await players with itchy piano wire fingers.

And if the single-player doesn’t satisfy you, a brand new Contracts mode, which allows you to create and play various assassination missions is also included.
