Possible Hitman 5 Absolution Screenshots leaked

Tore Blystad, a game developer working at IO interactive has tweeted some in-game screens and renders from an unannounced project from the studio. It wouldn’t be wrong to think that these might be from the next Hitman title, which is set to be announced this E3.

The pictures posted by him, consist of a environment piece, which he terms as being photo-realistic, a piece which he says might end up being part of an cutscene and the final one, is an environment setpiece in production.

The images look absolutely stunning and carry some solid detail. The quality of the pictures and the high production values involved, leads us to belief that they are indeed from the yet to be announced Hitman title from IO interactive.

Square Enix recently trademarked a domain name, Hitman: Absolution, which also suggest that this is the case, and IO had run an ARG in the hitman forums earlier in the year, which confirmed that the next Hitman title is in development and is set to be announced at E3 this year, in Los Angeles.
