Hitman: Absolution's grindhouse take on Agent 47 comes to mobile this autumn

• Hitman: Absolution is Feral Interactive's latest upcoming port for mobile
• Jump into a grindhouse adventure as Agent 47 goes rogue
• A more linear series of levels belies a great amount of exciting gunplay

Feral Interactive seem to have made a habit of bringing great releases to mobile. Kicking off back in the day with their genuinely surprising Alien: Isolation port that brought it to mobile back in 2021. But their latest circuit has been the Hitman series, progressing with the often controversial Hitman: Absolution that's set to arrive on iOS and Android this Autumn!

Hitman: Absolution sees the action of the hit stealth-assassination sim take a distinct turn. Gone are the wide-open levels in favour of narrower, more story-oriented areas that you progress through. Disguises, silent kills and 'accidents' are still present, but this is a major departure from predecessor Blood Money.

Even more drastic is the change in tone, as Agent 47 faces down corrupt officials and bloodthirsty maniacs more at home in a Tarantino film than the Hitman series. For better or for worse, Hitman: Absolution is unlike anything else in the series.

It's a hit, man

Naturally, Feral have packaged everything you'd expect with this port, including keyboard and mouse support. For $14.99, you get 20 missions to complete that see Agent 47 going rogue from The Agency, with plenty of obstacles standing in the way.

While dedicated Hitman fans may grumble, undoubtedly, this will be a port to keep an eye on. And it seems as if Feral have gone the extra mile to ensure that everyone is getting the best possible version to take the world of assassination into the palm of their hands.
