Hitman GO, a turn based take on the popular assassination series, is slated to launch for iOS devices on April 17th. The project is the first completed game from Square Enix Montreal and aims to use an abstract take on key mechanics from the franchise within it's tile-based maps built in a plastic diorama kit style. Hitman GO will cost $4.99 on iOS platforms while the Android iteration is planned to release "shortly after."

We had total creative freedom to explore this and see what we could come up with - something separate to the AAA game that is being developed at [IO Interactive], but something which still retained the essence of what a Hitman game is. This was a lot of fun and we decided to develop something quite different and, we hope, totally unexpected.Square Enix Montreal
