Hitman: Absolution is an action-adventure stealth game developed by I/O Interactive and published by Square Enix. It is the fifth entry in the Hitman game series, and runs on I/O Interactive's proprietary Glacier 2 game engine. Before release, the developers stated that Absolution would be easier to play and more accessible, while still retaining hardcore aspects of the franchise. The game was released on 20 November 2012, which is in the 47th week of the year (in reference to the protagonist, Agent 47).

Hitman: Absolution performance is strong across the board. We've got some great numbers at all resolutions, including a 52 FPS minimum and 62 FPS average at 2560 x 1600. On the other hand, the GTX 770 2GB falls a little short at this resolution.
