Hitman's Agent 47 Is Making His Mark On South Dakota
When we think of Agent 47, a few things come to mind. He's sneaky. He's great at disguising himself. He has a barcode tattooed on the back of his head. Something that typically doesn't make our list? South Dakota. According to the front page of the fictional Hope New Times newspaper, however, it looks like the notorious assassin is going on a little road trip in Hitman: Absolution.
Square Enix has released the first in a series of mock front pages, which presumably shows the relative calm before the Agent 47 storm. Sure, there was a mysterious car wreck that tied up traffic on Main Street for a while, but that's not too out of the ordinary. It looks like industrialist Blake Dexter has everything taken care of in the quiet community. Let's just hope, for his sake, that Dexter Industries isn't involved in anything that would have Blake any powerful enemies. For all we know, Agent 47 is just on a nice, peaceful vacation.
Check out the full-sized image below, and watch out for Hitman: Absolution on the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and PC later this year.
