Hitman Absolution

THE BUZZ: Agent 47 is back in Hitman: Absolution, and in this new “She Must Be Special” gameplay trailer, he finds himself in the Rosewood Orphanage in Chicago as it is raided by a group of gang things.

EGM’s TAKE: Though I’m not a follower of the Hitman series, I’ve seen a few people negatively commenting on how many kills Agent 47 makes in this video—versus, I take it, his more usual style of stealth and minimal kills. Here’s the thing:

If you want to play Absolution that way, go right ahead! The game is being crafted to support different play styles, so you can come at it low-key and calculating, or you can run in guns a’blazing.
