Hitman: Absolution Contracts Mode Announced
The developers at IO Interactive are including a brand new challenge mode in Agent 47's newest adventure.
In Contract mode, players will be able to create custom challenges for other Hitman players to try and complete. Unlike similar features in other games, this mode will not require the player to learn to use an editor or any extra creation tools. Simply select the level, the targets, and the weapons players are allowed to use, then fine tune the circumstances of the contract in areas such as witnesses to the hit and time limit.
Players who create contracts will be able to upload them for their friends to try and complete at any time. After players successfully complete a contract, they will be rewarded a special currency which can be spent on weapons and upgrades to make even more elaborate contracts. Contract dollars can also be earned by playing through the Hitman: Absolution single-player campaign.
The new contract mode will be available with several preloaded contracts when the game releases on November 20, 2012, for the XBox 360, PS3, and PC.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
