Hitman: Absolution (GameStop - Hitman: Sniper Challenge)
A few new pre-order items have been announced for Square Enix and IO Interactive’s Hitman: Absolution. Amazon, Best Buy, and Walmart are offering a suit and weapon combo, detailed below, while GameStop has thrown down the gauntlet with a standalone minigame: Sniper Challenge. Developed by IO Interactive, Hitman: Sniper Challenge will be available on May 15 on Live and PSN (August 1 on PC via Steam), months before Absolution’s November 20 launch. As an added bonus, all unlocked items and upgrades in Sniper Challenge will carry over to Absolution.
Hitman: Sniper Challenge will feature a hidden Agent 47 perched on a rooftop, stalking Richard Strong, Jr., CEO of Stallion Armaments. Strong will be protected by a slew of bodyguards who will have to be dealt with as players search for hidden secrets, unlock upgrades, and maintain score multipliers for top rank on the leaderboard. Talented snipers will be able to win monthly prizes, and the best, who holds the highest place on the board at Absolution’s launch, will win a trip for two to Copenhagen, Denmark to meet the development team and have their likeness saved for inclusion in the next Hitman.
