Will we ever see a female Hitman?

[~Luna~]

In the main story do you think it will ever happen, a female Hitman? For some reason I pressumed the girl from Absolution would end up being one but that never happened?

[Klauth]

Why ? The franchise always was about this 47 bloke. Both are bound together !

I'm all for inovation, but I don't see a female hitman be in this at all.

Who knows, maybe there'll be co-op alternatives of every level with a grown-up Victoria in a future game. If she's still alive. It's still unknown if she threw away her necklace.

Well, I know this sounds far-fetched, I actually want it to sound like that tbh., but Victoria seems to have (had) the potential to become a female 47.

Please! Do not let her turn into you.

Like I said above, it is unknown which decision she made.
Once IOI is done with the Shadow Client arc, and if they intend to continue the series, they might (I'm not expecting them to, I'm just theorizing) bring back Victoria.

I dont know, but if we will she better be HOT as fudge

Yeah Victoria was the most viable choice if it was to be tied to the story, I know the game is about 47 so it would be hard to break away from that but maybe as just a single mission or even two, it would be fun imo.

Or do it like Splinter Cell: Blacklist, and make all levels (or most of them) co-op-able.
Is co-op-able a term? You know what I mean, either play solo or with a buddy.

Wouldn't the point of Absolution's plot be to save Victoria from being used as a weapon? Agent 47 has had a lot of inner turmoil over his lifestyle, even living as a gardener for a church at one point. There's zero good reasons to keep asking for female versions or 'switcheroos' of already established characters.

If you just wonder why females don't have tons of representation as people of action or interest, look at the real world for a comparison, men almost exclusively do all dangerous/dirty labor/jobs. In a household, who would Most likely have to be the ones who turned to crime to support their siblings and/or significant others? Men.
Up until recently, very few attractive females Had to work minimum wage jobs to survive, they all could have seduced their way to a better living. A quote from a comedian back a few years was: "being an ugly woman is like being a man, you're gonna have to work".

Well said

47 has collaberated with agency field agents in the past; I suppose it's possible but once 47 gets called in it's his gig. No matter what your job was up until that point your new job is to stay out of sight, don't mess things up for 47, maybe give him some intel or a keycard or something, and then resume staying out of sight and not messing things up for him.

He's a lone wolf, not a team player.

Typical monkey logic, most species the female is the strongest to protect the children, but in monkeys the men run around making nukes and now super nukes while the ice melts so yeah it clearly is a man dominated world, just look at the death toll for all the wars the men have started.

As for the topic, yes 47 saved her from having to become just like him but that doesn't automatically conclude that she could not return either once 47 has died or another reason which really wouldn't be that hard to imagine, even for a male :)

[Greb]

Didn't she throw away whatever generic superpower isotope crap the game tried to tie into the story anyway? She went off to live a normal life tweeting and man hating most likely.

Besides, we all know Hitman Absolution never really happened.

HITPERSON: GENDER NEUTRAL EDITION

[Vengeance]

Every game on steam with a male protagonist has this kind of thread on their forums.

[XXL]

No body would play as a sub-human female char except the female players which are an useless minority among gamers, now get back in the kitchen where you belong.

[Falaris]

Tags are, among others, female protagonist, nudity, multiplayer and open world.

Kind of doubt they are entirely serious though.

[burningmime]

You can already play as a female in the co-op mode.

[Pim]

Considering the pressure that is put on the gaming industry to conform to today's standards of social equality and political correctness, I don't see why they wouldn't do a spin-off at some point or even have two agents to choose from going forward.
