Square Enix have announced that their Montreal mobile team is back with another sniper game, still set in the Hitman world, even though Square Enix and IO Interactive split a few years back. Hitman Sniper Assassins is just a code name, but for now you can check out the teaser below.

While not being developed by IO Interactive, it is being done by the same team that made the wonderful Hitman Sniper, which means that this new mobile game will feature a wholly original story, set within the world of Agent 47, but will feature new playable assassins and brand-new gameplay features.

“Praised as one of the best mobile games available upon its release, Hitman Sniper raised the bar for player expectations of mobile sniper games,” said Dominic Allaire, executive producer at Square Enix Montréal. “Project Hitman Sniper Assassins will be an evolutionary leap forward for the genre, and we can’t wait for players to share our excitement when they get their hands on it in the coming months.”

“2021 will be one of the best years to be a fan of the Hitman franchise,” said Fahad Khan, lead game designer at Square Enix Montréal. “Creativity in approach and tactics are hallmarks of the game’s universe. We’ve doubled down on what fans loved and are delivering an experience that gives players even more freedom to truly embody a Hitman Sniper.”

More details are expected later, but there is no when later, but you can always give the original game a go, if you can’t wait.
