The next HITMAN might be called Hitman: Profession. Square Enix trademarked the name in Europe on Thursday (December 22), last week.
Square Enix opened a Montreal studio in November, which it said would work on a new HITMAN, separate from the Io-produced Hitman: Absolution, still in development at the studio. Square has yet to formally announce the name of that project, though it’s possible today’s newly-discovered trademark could be it.
Thanks, Siliconera.
