Hitman: Blood Money targets PAL release on May 26

Eidos has announced that Hitman: Blood Money will be released across PAL territories on May 26.

In stores on May 26

Developed by IO Interactive, Hitman: Blood Money is the latest game in the series which began with Hitman: Codename 47 on the PC in 2000. The game is being released on PlayStation 2, Xbox, PC and also the Xbox 360, which was added to the line-up only last week.

In Hitman: Blood Money assassins from the agency Agent 47 works for, The ICA, are systematically killed, by what is assumed to be a larger, more powerful agency. Agent 47 realises he may be the next target, so he travels to America where he sets out to ensure he's the one doing the killing.
