Hitman: Absolution's page

  1. A Personal Contract

    You were Agent 47, ordered by ICA official Benjamin Travis to kill your former handler, Diana Burnwood, and recover a girl named Victoria. You shot Diana at her mansion, but stopped to hear her explanation. She had taken Victoria to save her from becoming an engineered assassin like you. You promised to protect the girl and broke contact with Travis.

  2. Chicago

    You hid Victoria at Rosewood Orphanage and paid former ICA operative Birdie for information. His lead brought you to arms manufacturer Blake Dexter at the Terminus Hotel. Dexter's bodyguard Sanchez knocked you unconscious. Dexter murdered a maid, framed you, and set the room alight. You escaped the police, then pursued Dexter's connections as his mercenaries hunted Birdie for Victoria's location.

  3. Rosewood

    You returned to the orphanage after Birdie betrayed Victoria's hiding place. Edward Wade's mercenaries attacked as you arrived, and Dexter's son Lenny killed Sister Mary. You mortally wounded Wade, but Lenny escaped with Victoria. Following them to Hope, South Dakota, you captured and interrogated Lenny in the desert. Whether you killed him yourself or left him there depended on you.

  4. Hope

    You traced Victoria through Dexter Industries, killed its researchers, and removed their work on her. Her necklace powered her extraordinary abilities. Sanchez pointed your search toward Sheriff Skurky before you killed him. After surviving an ICA ambush by the Saints, you reached Victoria beneath the courthouse, only to be captured and tortured. You escaped as Travis's forces descended on Hope.

  5. Blackwater Park

    You cornered Skurky in a church and learned that Dexter had taken Victoria back to Chicago. At Blackwater Park, you killed his assistant Layla and pursued him onto the roof. Dexter planned to escape by helicopter and destroy the building behind him. You killed him before he could leave. Victoria scattered his ransom money over his body and escaped with you.

  6. AbsolutionThe ending

    You followed Diana's letter to an English cemetery, where Travis searched for proof of her death. His unauthorized project had created Victoria. You killed Jade, his guards, and Travis himself. Diana had survived your shot, and Victoria was safe with her; the girl's decision about keeping her necklace remained unresolved. Diana welcomed you back to the ICA. Meanwhile, Birdie offered detective Cosmo Faulkner information about you.
