Description
Branded a traitor and hunted by the Agency he once served, Agent 47 returns in lethal form.
Stalk your targets through elaborate environments designed to reward both quick thinking and patient planning. Strike silently from the shadows, or let your silverballers do the talking — whatever your approach, each of Absolution’s 20 missions is a contract killer’s hunting ground that invites exploration, experimentation and improvisation.
STUNNING EXECUTION ON NINTENDO SWITCH™ 2
• Increased output resolution in both Handheld and TV Mode for clearer visuals, wherever you play.
• Smoother action, thanks to frame rate improvements in Handheld Mode, to a maximum of 60 FPS.
• Joy-Con™ 2 Mouse Controls for pinpoint accuracy.
• Improved animations and visual effects in the busiest scenes.
• Enhanced Level of Detail (LoD) for distant objects, plus shadow quality and texture filtering improvements that make environments feel alive.
