Hitman HD collection could be on the way

A remastered collection of the old Hitman titles seems to be scheduled for release in Europe and possibly North America.

The product page on Italian retailer 16Games shows a re-release for PlayStation 3 with a PEGI 18 rating. The release date is listed as October 15.

Given Sony's affinity for HD collections and Hitman: Absolution's upcoming debut, the possibility isn't unreasonable.

The trilogy contains Hitman 2: Silent Assassin, Hitman: Contracts, and Hitman: Blood Money — the second, third, and fourth games in the series, respectively. They were developed by IO Interactive and published by Eidos.

Hitman: Absolution is due out on November 20. Take a look at the new E3 trailer for the game.
