The Legend Returns in Hitman: Absolution
Feral Interactive has announced that Hitman: Absolution will arrive on Nintendo Switch on November 13, marking the return of Agent 47 in one of his most intense and personal missions yet.
In Hitman: Absolution, the legendary assassin finds himself betrayed by the very Agency he once served. Forced into hiding, Agent 47 must use every weapon in his arsenal, stealth, deception, and disguise, to survive and exact revenge. Each of the game’s 20 missions encourages players to experiment with their surroundings, crafting their own paths to eliminate targets with precision and creativity. The game rewards inventive tactics and skillful execution, offering endless replayability for those who seek the perfect hit and the highest mission scores.
Following the success of Hitman: Blood Money Reprisal on Nintendo Switch in 2024, this release continues IO Interactive’s celebrated stealth action legacy on the platform. The Switch version of Hitman: Absolution features enhanced visuals, including improved character models, refined environments, and more sophisticated lighting effects. Feral Interactive has also introduced modern touches such as optional gyro aiming, ensuring smooth control whether players are at home or playing on the go.
The game will be priced at $29.99 / £19.99 / €24.99, with pre-orders open now on the Nintendo eShop. Feral Interactive has also confirmed that the fan favorite ‘Contracts’ mode will arrive as a free post-launch update in early 2026, allowing players to create and share their own assassination challenges or take on missions designed by others around the world.
