Hitman: Sniper Assassin teased, should hear more at E3 2018

It looks like the new Hitman game has been accidentally teased, with both the Australian and Korean classifications ratings boards teasing Hitman: Sniper Assassin for the PC, Xbox One, and PS4.

Hitman: Sniper Assassination hasn't been offically announced by developer IO Interactive, and while this could be a genuine error, I doubt it - we should expect Sniper Assassin to be announced soon enough. But, there was mobile variant 'Hitman: Sniper' released in 2015, so this could be a better polished or sequel to that game, or a totally new game... we don't know just yet.

IO did announce that they were "making great progress" on a follow up to Hitman from 2016, so we should expect something soon. Hitman: Definitive Edition is right around the corner as well, with a release on both the Xbox One and PS4 on May 18. E3 2018 is less than a month after that, where I think we'll be officially introduced to Hitman: Sniper Assassin.
