Square Enix Montréal's newest mobile title, Hitman Sniper: The Shadows, landed today and it's sure to get Hitman fans excited! They've even released a new trailer to celebrate the launch (included below).
The new mobile sniper game is an action, role-playing game set within an original Hitman story. As a member of The Shadows, players embark on globe-trotting missions, take down targets, engage in fierece competition, and build their reputation as the International Contract Agency (ICA) agents.
The story focuses on the events following the disappearance of Agent 47 and follows a group of assassins called The Shadows within the secretive world of assassination where a new criminal network threatens global stability.
At launch the game includes six sniper assassins, each with their own stories, styles, personalities, and abilities. Each assassin is early enough in their careers to allow room for growth, giving players the chance to evolve them into ICA agents.
The game also includes new locations, with different vantage points and time of day, giving players plenty of flexibility when it comes to eliminating their targets. Each location includes unique targets.
There are also multiple different game modes, including a campaign mode to learn about and eliminate targets, and a PvP mode where players compete against other players to build their reputation.
