Gaming News - November 2004
San Francisco, CA (November 4, 2004) - Eidos today announced Hitman:
Blood Money. Developed by Io Interactive, Hitman Blood Money will be released
worldwide in Spring 2005 on PlayStation 2, Xbox, and PC.
From Eidos:
When assassins from Agent 47’s contract agency, The ICA, are systematically
eliminated in a series of hits, it seems a larger, more powerful agency has
entered the fray. For Agent 47 it’s business as usual, until suddenly he loses
contact with The ICA. Sensing that he may be the next target, he travels to
America, where he prepares to make a killing.
Agent 47 is back and this time he’s paid in cold, hard cash. How the money is
spent will affect his passage through the game and the weapons at his disposal,
resulting in a unique gameplay experience for each player. Powered by a new
version of Io’s stunning Glacier engine, Hitman: Blood Money will deliver the
most brutal and realistic simulation of life as the world’s deadliest assassin.
Mike McGarvey, ceo of Eidos says:
“The Hitman series is one of Eidos’ biggest franchises and goes from strength to
strength with every new instalment. Io-Interactive is one of the world’s most
accomplished developers, and yet again has raised the stakes in terms of
graphics and gameplay with Hitman: Blood Money.”
Janos Flösser, managing director of Io-Interactive says: “Considerable time and
effort has been spent developing a new version of the Glacier engine that
enables us to implement many new and exciting features. The quality of the
graphics and A.I. surpasses even our own expectations and this combined with a
gripping narrative and the introduction of some really inventive characters
makes us confident that Blood Money will be the greatest Hitman title to date.”
