Hitman: Absolution Contract Mode Free to Play

Square Enix have decided to exclude the online pass that would otherwise have been required to play the contract online mode in Hitman: Absolution, CVG reports. In a statement Square Enix posted:

We’d actually planned to have this mode accessible via a code in the game’s box, but we really want to make it available to anybody that plays the game – so we want to take a new approach

If you’re in North America you’ll see the mode automatically appear in the game menu. If you’re elsewhere, you can redeem the code inside the box, or you can simply select the BUY CONTRACTS PASS option. From there, head to the store where CONTRACTS will be free to access

Hitman: Absolution is available from tomorrow on PC, Xbox 360 and Playstation 3. Will you be picking this game up? Let us know in the comments below.
