IO Interactive originally announced they'd be searching out a new voice-actor to portray Agent 47 in the forthcoming Hitman: Absolution, but today they revealed that after an extensive search, and a bit of reflection, they've gone back to the original Agent 47 voice, David Bateson.
"IO and Bateson have been bed fellows for over a decade and like all long running relationships sometimes absence makes the heart grow fonder," Hitman: Absolution, Brand Director Jon Brooke said. "Looking back I think we were just playing hard to get.”
Hitman: Absolution is due to arrive on PC, PS3 and Xbox 360 this November 20.
