If you’ve been following the Hitman series since its origins on the PC, you’ll be happy to know that the cold and focused voice of David Bateson will be blessing Agent 47 once again. It was only a short while ago that IO Interactive had announced that David Bateson would not be returning, making this latest announcement hugely exciting for the game’s hardcore fanbase.
When asked about the return of Agent 47’s original voice actor, Brand Director Jon Brooke said:
“IO and Bateson have been bed fellows for over a decade and like all long running relationships sometimes absence makes the heart grow fonder. Looking back I think we were just playing hard to get.”
Hitman: Absolution is due for release on November 20th, 2012 for PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and PC.
