Square Enix is set to release its E3 trailer for Hitman: Absolution tomorrow, but today they've released this image to tease it.

It shows what looks to be multiple female nun assassins silhouetted in front of a red background. No other information is given so it could possibly be anything, so this is where we have fun riding the wave of wild speculation.

A yet undisclosed hitman faction made up entirely of nuns?  A multiplayer mode in Hitman: Absolution? An advert for Agent 47's new brand of perfume?

The latter would be fantastic -I would totally wear that all over my body- but the possibility of multiplayer is enough to make me lose my lunch. Especially when we have yet to see the actually Hitman-esque areas of the game we've been promised for months.

A faction of crazy leather-clad Nuns, however, would also be fitting for a Hitman universe which offered some fairly crazy set pieces for some of its more entertaining situations.

Right now your guess is as good as mine.

    Hitman fragrance sounds so ace! Probably the only thing Hitman related that has me excited. I really need to see more footage of the game before I write it off completely etched with R.I.P.

    Crossing my fingers for no multiplayer and really hoping to have my ass kicked by a bunch of nuns instead.

    Hey, I'm for either one. I mean the only way I could see them pulling off multiplayer is if they tried something like Assassin's Creed, and I'd totally be down for that. Or even like that XBLA game Bloody Good Time. That'd be pretty sweet in my opinion. But of course, I would rather them put 100% into the SP, so hopefully just leather clad assassin nuns.

    I wish it was nuns. And a separate game instead of a multiplayer mode. Like Bayonetta but you play a group of nuns.

    i really not one for completely hating a multiplayer mode just because the game doesn't really need but this has all the right elements for a painful, cringe-worthy moment in videogame history
