IO Interactive has posted the first official concept art from its upcoming HITMAN game, currently in development for “PC and next-gen consoles.”
Additionally, the developer confirmed the game won’t be at E3 this year.
“We know the worst thing is to hope for something that doesn’t turn up,” a post on the series’ official blog reads, “so we wanted to let you know that our next HITMAN is going to be under wraps for a bit longer. We’re focusing all of our time and efforts into creating the best possible HITMAN game. That’s our number one priority and we don’t want to divert valuable resources to show something before it’s ready.”
IO says it is making “great progress” with building “exotic and expansive” locations for the new game. Today’s new concept art shows Central Europe. According to IO, you’ll be able to explore the entire building pictured in the image, which is larger than any location in Hitman: Absolution.
