WB Games Takes on Publishing Role of Hitman Series, Hitman: Definitive Edition Confirmed

Last year, Hitman developer Io Interactive went independent and publisher Square Enix was looking to sell off the developer to focus resources on key franchises. In the process, Io Interactive secured the rights to Hitman allowing the series to continue with Io Interactive. In a press release, Io Interactive confirmed that Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment, the publishers behind Mortal Kombat, Injustice, and the Batman Arkham series would take on the role of publisher for the Hitman series.

Hitman: Definitive Edition was also confirmed, launching May 15th for Xbox One, PS4, and PC, and includes:

Hitman Season One (all seven locations including Paris and Marrakesh)

The Io Interactive 20th Anniversary Outfit Bundle (outfits inspired by Kane & Lynch and more)

The Summer Bonus episode (ICA missions in Sapienza and Marrakesh)

The Blood Money Requiem pack (Requiem Suit, Pale Duck Explosive and ICA Chrome Pistol)

Hitman Game of the Year Edition content (four missions from the Patient Zero campaign, three Escalation Contracts with three unique weapons, and three outfits for Agent 47)

Hitman is out now for PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.
