IO Interactive has been pretty hushed about their upcoming Hitman project, but today new information surfaced about the possible inclusion of a multiplayer mode for Hitman: Absolution. Â This would mark a first for the Hitman franchise, and the developer isn’t quite speaking freely about the online capabilities of the game, other than that it’s “very, very interesting.”
In a recent interview, Hakan Abrak of IO spoke of the “interesting” new addition to the game.
“We’re not ready to talk about it right now. Â Hitman is an assassin who works alone, but you never know in what form or in what way we could give you an online experience. Â It’s unfortunately not something I can talk about right now, but I can say, in the story part, Agent 47 definitely works alone…. We do have something very, very interesting coming up in Hitman: Absolution on the online side.”
Hitman Absolution will be headed to PS3, Xbox 360, and PC next year.
