Square Enix and IO Interactive released a new trailer for Hitman: Absolution.

This time, we get a few details about the story, as well as multiple action scenes in which Agent 47 appears in what seems to be an orphanage.

Also, the game trailer below seems to highlight the new Glacier 2 graphics engine, which looks pretty good with the exception of the flawed lip sync.

The story in Hitman: Absolution will take Agent 47 through a more intimate adventure. Having to accept what the developers of the game call “the most dangerous contract of his career”, Agent 57 becomes targeted by authorities and an entire city is out to get him.

The newest Hitman game also has the biggest production budget ever for a game created in Denmark.

Hitman: Absolution is going to be released this year for Playstation 3, Xbox 360 and PC.
