Square Enix, Io-Interactive and Realm Pictures have come together to create a real-life take on Hitman, featuring a partnership between series protagonist Agent 47 and Paul and Barry Chuckle: The Chuckle Brothers.
Using CCTV feeds and a direct line to Agent 47, Paul and Barry issue commands as the team work to take down a Serbian arms dealer in a real life Hitman experience featuring a falling statue, Agent 47 voice actor David Bateson and a mansion in Devon.
“The objective was to try and see if it was possible to create the feeling of a real life Hitman game experience for the participants,” said Marc Skouborg, Brand Marketing Director at Io-Interactive. “Realm Pictures went above and beyond in their efforts and we’ve been completely blown away by the detail and how well they managed to capture the essence of the game, which is all about freedom of approach. It’s simply fantastic.”
