Rocksteady not doing Hitman 5 after all News

PC Xbox 360 PlayStation 3
News by Ellie Gibson

17 August, 2009

Eidos bossman Ian Livingstone has dismissed suggestions Rocksteady Games is working on a new Hitman title.

Last week the eagle-eyed internet spotted a reference to "Hitman 5" on the CV of actor Mark Sloan. The CV also mentions Rocksteady.

But when PWGM asked Livingstone about it he replied, "This is the first I've heard about it. Hitman always has been and always will be IO Interactive's baby, which it still continues to be so."

Just to be crystal clear, he added: "Rocksteady are not involved with the development of Hitman 5."

Looks like you got over-excited AGAIN, internet. No more orange squash for you.

Any chance of asking whether Hitman 5 is actually imminent?

I dont care if RS are doing it or IO are doing it. Just as long as someone is doing it. We NEED more Hitman.

I'm only being cheeky. I agree with Matrim. I must have completed Blood Money at least 3 times.

Good news, not that rocksteady are a bad developer, but as the guy said it's IO's baby.

@ MiniAmin

Yeh i agree, it didn't bother me having to replay the game over and over for achievments, i loved it so i never had a problem doing it.

So many ways you can take every level, multiple ways to go it silently of go for broke and destroy everything awsome game.
