Hitman Absolution Uncovered

The very first “International Contract Agency Files” in assocation with upcoming sneakathon by Square Enix, Hitman: Absolution, have been uploaded for viewing pleasure. These series of files detail the main cast and the first file focuses on Diana Burnwood, showing audiences her previous accomplishments amongst some very interesting revelations, which you can gather from watching the video itself! If you don’t appreciate the content of the video at the bottom of this post, you can at least appreciate the exclusive art from comic artist Ben Oliver.

In a recent interview with Marsha Thomason on YouTube who plays the role of Diana Burnwood, she describes her red-headed character as “Hitman’s only true human contact” and compares the relationship to Q and James Bond. One of the most interesting aspects of Hitman: Absolution is the reliance on Performance Capture declared by Thomason as “fascinating”, you can see this in full effect during the relevant video.  There is little interaction with physical set and it mostly relies on the use of imagination before the set is added during the editing stage. Thomason was surprised by the quality of the full script supported the gaming world by stating that there was indeed, artistry at work. If you are remotely interested in Hitman: Absolution make sure you check out the interview.

I’m sure there will be more files to come in future weeks, so keep your eyes peeled or just rely on us to peel them for you. Exhibit A is below.
