The first Hitman Absolution review has arrived in the form of a 9/10 in Official PlayStation Magazine UK.
The verdict is featured in the latest issue of the mag, which is arriving with subscribers now and hits shops on October 27. Here's a choice quote from the OPM review:
http://cdn.medialib.computerandvideo...mb_wide300.jpg"Here [Hitman has] finally been perfected in what is probably a peak for the series so far. It takes the ideas that made the original games so great and presents them in a modern context of checkpoints, hints and forgiveness but without sacrificing any of the challenge, excitement or shivery-skinned thrill of pulling off some impossibly and beautifully planned hit."Meanwhile, Official Xbox Magazine has also given the game a 9/10, calling it a "triumph of stealth and sandbox design that retains everything that fans have ever loved about the series".
Publisher Square Enix has confirmed a Hitman: Absolution release date of November 20. Get our most recent thoughts on the game in this Hitman Absolution preview published earlier this month.
