Scope It Out — Hitman: Absolution Sets Sights on Switch November 13th

Following a successful mission on mobile, Agent 47 has set his sights on Nintendo Switch, where Hitman: Absolution will arrive on November 13th for $29.99 / £19.99 / €24,99.

Betrayed, hunted and honour-bound to protect a teenage girl with a dangerous secret, the ultimate assassin makes a deadly return to the Nintendo handheld. With a new list of targets, over 20 missions in which to eliminate them, and a new set of tricks up his sleeve, the barcoded killer’s stealth-action skills will be put to the test once more.

As with the recent mobile release, you can also expect Contracts Mode to arrive in a post-release update in 2026, when you’ll be able to set challenges and compete for high scores with your friends across all three platforms.

Infiltrate the Nintendo eShop now and pre-order Hitman: Absolution for $29.99 / £19.99 / €24,99.
