HITMAN 2 – October Update

Ghoul Mourning! The October Update for HITMAN 2 brings a spooky Halloween Escalation for all players to enjoy in Hawke’s Bay – but that’s not all! Three Halloween-related Legacy Challenge Packs are lined up for release alongside the 2.71.0 game update which brings a host of improvements to the game, especially for Haven Island.

On top of that, we’ve got a large game update with fixes and tweaks in all areas.

The October Roadmap is almost wrapped up – but not quite! We’ve still got the huge drop of THREE Legacy Challenge Packs plus our Halloween-themed Escalation Contract plus a new Elusive Target on Whittleton Creek starting on Friday 25th October for 10 days! We round the month off with a Hawke’s Bay Challenge Pack that will unlock the Red-Tie Kiwi.
