Eidos today announced Hitman 3: Contracts is being developed by Io Interactive and will be available for PlayStation 2, the Xbox and the PC in spring 2004.

Hitman: Contracts takes you into the mind of Agent 47, the most ruthlessly efficient contract killer in history. The game begins in Paris as Agent 47 finds himself wounded and trapped in what is a dangerous situation, even for him. Hitman: Contracts explores the dark psychology of killing for a living and promises to be the darkest, most disturbing episode in the series.
