Since we posted our open letter back in January, we’ve had our heads down working on our next Hitman game. So you’ll have noticed that we have been pretty quiet, but we wanted to give you a short update about a few things.

First up, we’ve seen a lot of people talking about what we might be bringing to E3 this year. We know the worst thing is to hope for something that doesn’t turn up; so we wanted to let you know that our next Hitman is going to be under wraps for a bit longer. We’re focusing all of our time and efforts into creating the best possible Hitman game. That’s our number one priority and we don’t want to divert valuable resources to show something before it’s ready.

The good news is we’re making great progress with building exotic and expansive locations for the new game. To give you an idea of what we’re aiming for, here’s the first piece of concept art from the game. This location is set in Central Europe and you’ll be able to explore the entire building you see in the image, inside and out. For a sense of scale, the building on its own is larger than any location in Hitman Absolution.

As we move through the year, we’ll have some details to share with you and we’ll keep you posted right here on the blog. We will only lift the lid on the game once we feel we’re ready to. In the meantime, we’ll continue to answer as many of your questions as we can both in the forums and on Twitter.

On a separate note, we were happy to see so many of you enjoying Hitman GO from our friends at Square Enix Montréal. They’re pretty close to announcing new details about upcoming updates for GO as well as the first details about their second Hitman game for smartphones and tablets, we’ve been playing it here at the studio and it’s a lot of fun. Anyway, we’ll let them be the ones to tell you about it, so stay tuned for a blog post from them soon.

Thanks for your dedication, let’s stay in touch.

Il team di sviluppo IO Interactive ha risposto a chi domandava lumi su un nuovo Hitman, attraverso Twitter, anticipando che alcune novità dovrebbero venire fuori più avanti nel corso del 2015.

"Ci sono varie informazioni in arrivo quest'anno e non vediamo l'ora di condividerle con voi", ha risposto semplicemente l'account ufficiale di Hitman ad un utente che chiedeva per quando è previsto il rilascio di un nuovo capitolo. In effetti, è dall'uscita di Absolution nel 2012 che la serie è sostanzialmente ferma e non ci sono informazioni precise sul suo futuro, che a quanto pare è comunque assicurato.

ma non credo che il titolo uscirà prima del 2016

The new game is simply called “HITMAN”. We did this because in many ways this is the start of a new journey for Hitman. Don’t think of it as a reboot, though - think of it as a pure Hitman experience and the foundation for future HITMAN games. Agent 47 is the aspirational assassin, he’s at the absolute peak of his power this time around. This is our central promise: a pure assassin fantasy. So we liked the simplicity and the power of calling this game HITMAN. We want him to be powerful and embody the fantasy completely, and he will remain a constant throughout everything we do with the games going forward.

So what is this new game? Well first off HITMAN is still a creative stealth action game, featuring the greatest assassin out there, Agent 47. As an operative of the International Contract Agency, his job is to take out high-profile targets all over the world, supported by his long-time handler Diana Burnwood. Each location in the game is a living sandbox, a place where every NPC has a name and every room matters. We’ve focused on making sure you, the players, have complete freedom of approach over how, where and when you decide to take out your target. Creativity from players is fully expected, 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.

Locations are more detailed, more populated and much larger than ever before, full of things to experiment with and targets to kill without any checkpoint systems in there. Contracts mode, which we’ll talk more about later in the year, returns and really shines in these big sandboxes. We’ve brought back save games, so you can save your progress anywhere, and we have revamped pretty much every system in our Glacier engine to enable this HITMAN experience. We promised you these things a while back and we’re sticking to them because they are important – and because your feedback is important. In fact, it’s so important we’re taking things a step further.

One of the reasons why we’re calling this a new start for HITMAN is also the idea of releasing a digitally led product. That can mean a lot of different things depending on who you are, but for us it means we’re going to make HITMAN available first via direct download.

We’re embracing what digital can offer a blockbuster game series like HITMAN – it allows us to do things that are both bold and exciting and entirely new to the Hitman experience.

We are building an expanding and evolving world of assassination. The experience will begin on December 8th and we will release new locations, missions and hits over time at regular intervals through 2016, which means we’ll all be able to share in the excitement of a new content drop at the same time. Rather than unboxing a game, playing it and then that’s sort of it, we want to deliver a true community experience - creating an ongoing and evolving game which plays out with a finale that brings the story arc together. Our primary goal is to keep HITMAN players fully engaged, so between bigger drops we will be creating one-off live events and live targets to keep you immersed in the experience.

Imagine a target appearing for every player in the world, for a limited time only… let’s say 48 hours. Where your one shot counts. And when that target is gone, it is gone forever. A shared experience where we imagine the HITMAN community will come together every time a new mission or new location appears. For $60 you’ll get full access to all of this content – everything we release as part of this story.

Another big part of this new approach is that we will develop the game with you, the players, and adjust gameplay and create live content and events based on player activity and feedback - so the game will deepen and evolve as time progresses. The experience begins on December 8th on PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC and will reach well into 2016.

If you saw HITMAN revealed at the Sony E3 Press Conference, you heard the word “exclusive” a couple of times. We’d just quickly like to run through what that means. PlayStation 4 will be the only console where you can experience the beta and where you can play it first. A PC beta is planned to arrive a week later. The beta is available for pre-orders now. As for the PlayStation 4 exclusive contracts, they are only available to those people who own a PS4 copy of the game.

The journey has just started for us all. We are incredibly excited to share a lot more with you as 2015 unfolds. Tomorrow, on June 16th, we’ll be showing the first gameplay trailer from HITMAN at the Square Enix Press Conference. You probably don’t want to miss that.

We’re very happy to invite you into this world of assassination. It’s a place full of challenges, contracts, hits, targets, opportunities, choices and freedom. We can’t wait to show you more!

Accidenti a loro! dopo xbox1, tomb raider ecc... adesso anche i giochi li tornano a chiamare come gli originali.

E3 gameplay:

sembra un ritorno alle origini, good.

coraggiosa la scelta di farlo uscire ad episodi e soltanto in DD per il momento

ecco la demo presentata al pax stanotte

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IZcpOqllGPg

molto interessante sembra ci sia una libertà d'azione altissima :sisi:

Mi ispira. Potrei digerire il gioco a episodi, però ha dei contro mica da ridere. Dallo spazio su disco occupato per molti mesi, allo scaricarsi ogni volta i contenuti.
Poi non vorrei che anche altre SH prendano ad esempio Hitman e inizino a far uscire giochi incompleti, con la scusa di far uscire a episodi anche giochi che non ne avrebbero bisogno.
Vediamo come gestiscono questa cosa con Hitman, però sarei tentato di aspettare una versione completa più avanti, quando usciranno tutti i contenuti.

l'importante è che all'inizio mettono a disposizione un numero importante di contratti. poi il resto è come se fossero dlc ma
in quel caso non li paghi.

No no no. io il gioco lo voglio giocare tutto e subito. soprattutto se, come tutti i giochi avrà un crescendo anche nella difficoltà. avete mai provato a riprendere in mano un gioco lasciato in pausa per mesi? soprattutto a livelli avanzati è dura.

rimandato ufficialmente a marzo 2016 :sisi:

nuova data di uscita 11 marzo.

Dopo il posticipo imposto da dicembre a marzo arriva da Square Enix la data ufficiale per il lancio del nuovo Hitman: arriverà l'11 marzo 2016 su PC, PlayStation 4 e Xbox One.

Seguendo lo schema previsto, il gioco verrà lanciato con all'interno tre ambientazioni, che verranno aumentate successivamente al lancio con una nuova ambientazione al mese da aprile a giugno. Si parte dunque con le tre location di Parigi, Sapienza e Marrakesh, con sei missioni per la Campagna e un totale di circa 800 obiettivi nella modalità Contracts, mentre un'ambientazione sandbox al mese arriverà successivamente: la Tailandia in aprile, gli USA a maggio e il Giappone a giugno 2016.

Previsti inoltre anche diversi appuntamenti live, che verranno organizzati online e con tempi limitati per parteciparvi. Hitman sarà disponibile in due edizioni: la Full Experience da 59,99 dollari conterrà i contenuti di lancio più l'accesso gratuito tutte le espansioni dei mesi successivi, mentre la Intro Pack da 34,99 dollari include le tre location del lancio, l'accesso ai Live Events e alla modalità Contracts. Chi acquista quest'ultima edizione può sbloccare tutti i contenuti della Full Experience pagando ulteriori 29,99 dollari (la Full risulta dunque più economica di circa 5 dollari in confronto).

scelta rischiosa questa perchè l'uscita cade proprio tra la fine di febbraio e le bombe di metà marzo.
poi questa scelta dell'uscita a cadenza mensile non aiuta di certo nell'acquisto chi è indeciso.

trailer con una nuova mappa molto interessante
