Hitman Contracts has gone gold. The game is due out on PC, Xbox and PS2 April 21 in the US and April 30 in Europe.
In 2000 kwam het Deense IO Interactive met Hitman: Codename47 op de proppen en daar zijn er nu inmiddels wereldwijd zo'n 1,4 miljoen copies van verkocht. Dit vond z'n vervolg in Hitman 2: Silent Assassin (2002), de succesvolste sequel ooit. Of ze dit kunnen evenaren met het jongste telg uit de Hitman-familie, zal deze lente moeten blijken...
Eidos announces the eagerly awaited return of the world's deadliest assassin in Hitman: Contracts. The game is the third instalment in the critically acclaimed, multi-million selling Hitman series.
Hitman: Contracts delivers more action-packed and suspense-filled missions, with a greater variety of ways to make the perfect kill and an increased arsenal of firearms and close-combat weapons.
A new graphics engine showcases Hitman's 'work' in brutal detail and brings new locations to life. An improved control system and more gradual learning curve will ensure that the game is accessible to all aspiring hitmen.
Hitman: Contracts will be a deeper and more involved story, and is promised to be "the darkest, most disturbing episode in the series" yet.

...the most ruthlessly efficient contract killer in history is back!
