	Video games - Hitman: Blood Money

Hitman: Blood Money is the fourth game of the Hitman video game series.

The upcoming fourth installment in the series, Hitman: Blood Money deals with 47's contract agency, the ICA, being systematically wiped out in a series of hits. Fearing that he is the ultimate goal of these killings, 47 flees to America where he offers his services as an assassin-for-hire.

According to the official website, the only confirmed locations are Paris (the mission that backfired on 47 in Contracts), the Rocky Mountains, Mississippi, San Diego and Las Vegas. It also seems a Louisiana bayou and New Orleans will be part of the fun. 47 will have more choices about how to execute his operations. If, for example, he makes his killings look like accidents, little suspicion will fall upon him. If, however, he goes on a rampage, his face will be printed all over newspapers, causing people – including the target – to flee when they first see him.

In the previous three games, there was no such repercussion for killing sprees, other than the fact that the highest possible rating cannot be attained. 47 will have new ways to approach missions as well. He can now dispose of bodies more efficiently, (i.e. hiding them in lockers or dumpsters) and can now use people as human shields. 47 will also use close-combat moves such as disarming an opponent with armlocks, and headbutts.

47 can also use the money he earns for certain things. In Codename 47, the only game in the series with interactive money, 47 would spend his earnings on weapons. In Blood Money it can be used for hush money, weapons deals, bribes, etc.

47's exploits now appear in newspapers. The player can read what is being written about 47 and his handywork. The point is, of course, to make it as non-descript as possible, to make all of the killings appear to have no connection to foul play. The game is expected to be released in early 2006.
