Lock 'em and load 'em wideboy! Promising to take you deeper into the mind of Agent 47, Tomb Raider Chronicles has dispatched a fifth HQ trailer direct via Eidos plc to herald the latest instalment of the best selling videogame franchise. Hitman: Contracts, developed by recently acquired IO Interactive, stars ruthless killer Agent 47 charged again with toppling another sinister populous. Shooter promises to be the most disturbing and action-packed episode in the series.

John Davis, Eidos' European marketing director says: "Hitman: Contracts is our biggest release of the year so far and this is reflected in the size of the marketing support. We've built a very strong campaign with tremendous reach and frequency that will ensure people are fully aware that Hitman: Contracts is a must-have title." Hitman: Contracts is the follow up to Hitman 2: Silent Assassin, which to date has sold more than 3 million copies worldwide since its release in November 2002. The game explores the dark psychology of killing for a living as you take on the role of the world's deadliest assassin, Agent 47.
