Hitman Absolution releases on Nintendo Switch with new mechanic

Feral Interactive is bringing back Hitman Absolution for the Nintendo Switch. It will expand the Hitman family on the Nintendo eShop on November 13, 2025.

The recent trailer reveals Agent 47 on the run to eliminate his main targets with creative strategies that encourage aggression or stealth. The Nintendo Switch version will introduce the new gyro controls to improve the most precise accuracy for the assassin. It’s currently the only Hitman game with the gyro feature, though the mechanic could be implemented in the other games through future updates.
