The next Hitman game will be released in late 2010, and will share story points with the upcoming film sequel by Twentieth Century Fox.
That's according to Variety, which claims that the fifth Hitman game will have deadly baldy Agent 47 "at a low point" and he must build himself back up psychologically and physically to reclaim his mantle as the world's most feared assassin.
Screenwriter Kyle Ward is back on script duties, as well as penning the Kane and Lynch and Uncharted films.
