In the world of video games, assassination is the new zombie - it's everywhere. Long before Dishonored or Assassin's Creed, gamers who wanted their fix of silent-but-deadly action would turn to the Hitman series. Now, after a six-year hiatus, the franchise is back with Hitman Absolution. The game sees the return of bald antihero Agent 47 a highly trained killer who works for an off-the-books organisation known as The Agency'. At the beginning of the game, 47 is sent to assassinate his former handler. But when this doesn't go to plan, 47 goes rogue and attempts to uncover a dark conspiracy while on the run from criminal organisations and his erstwhile employers.
