Hitman: Sniper lets you assassinate for high scores in a mobile sniper sandbox

Hitman aims for the head with a second “premium” mobile game.

Square Enix Montreal works to bring the company’s top brands to the mobile space, and its latest is Hitman: Sniper, coming to tablets and smartphones on June 4. The company’s previous title, 2014 turn-based puzzle game Hitman: Go, has served as a showpiece for thoughtful adaptation of console games to mobile, and Apple named it one of the best iPad games of 2014. Just like Hitman: Go, Hitman: Sniper will go for a premium price of $5, steering clear of the current free-to-play norm in the $30 billion mobile gaming market.
