Hitman Absolution pre-orders get Sniper Challenge

Those who pre-order can play a standalone game to win prizes, full game dated for November

Posted on
Square Enix in association with GameStop today announced Hitman: Sniper Challenge, a stand-alone sniper experience exclusively in North America for GameStop customers who pre-order Hitman Absolution.

Sniper Challenge is not part of the main game, but a stand-alone experience to reward fans who pre-order. Players can don the suit of Agent 47 as he takes on an exclusive assassination assignment. From a balcony overlooking a rooftop gathering, players will be tasked with taking out Richard Strong, Jr., CEO of Stallion Armaments, along with his entire staff of bodyguards. Skilled players will capitalize on score multipliers, hidden secrets, and unlock equipment upgrades.

An online leaderboard allows players to compare their sniping abilities with monthly prizes. In North America, the top sniper at the time of Absolution's launch will win a trip for two to Copenhagen, Denmark where they will meet with the Hitman development team and have their likeness incorporated into the next Hitman game.

Available May 15, the Sniper Challenge will be downloadable exclusively for customers who pre-order through GameStop for the PlayStation Network and Xbox LIVE. The Windows PC version will be made available through Steam on August 1, 2012.

Hitman Absolution will be available on November 20, 2012 for the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and Windows PC.
