Hitman: Blood Money is the latest game to launch on Square Enix’s Core Online, offering high definition games in your browser for free.
Hitman: Blood Money, which was originally released in the summer of 2006 for PC and consoles, is the second game to launch on Core Online, and now sits alongside platform adventure title Mini Ninjas. Lara Croft: Guardian of Light will also be added soon.
Core Online has been updated to offer users the ability to play through entire games free of charge, in exchange for watching video advertisements. Users will be able to earn game time by choosing from a choice of ads, and this game time can be passed on from one play session to the next.
If you don’t fancy watching ads it will be possible to skip these by buying individual levels or complete games.
“We’re delighted to be adding Hitman: Blood Money to the Core Online service,” said David Guldbrandsen, Studio Manager Core Online. “Since we first launched Core Online we’ve been working hard on getting the right level of choice for gamers to experience high definition games in the browser environment.”
“Together with those titles already announced – and there are lots more to come – we’re really looking forward to seeing the service grow.”
Core Online will run on most modern connected Windows PCs using an updated major browser, via either the Square Enix Secure Launcher plug-in or Native Client (for Google Chrome).
