For Halloween this year, developer IO Interactive has released a free update for Hitman 2. The update is a Halloween-themed Escalation Contract, which will be a permanent addition to the game.
With the update going live this week, a trailer was also released. You can check it out below along with more info and a previously released video for the October roadmap.
It’s been a couple of years now, but it feels like developer IO Interactive’s latest Hitman just came out. Probably because it was, for the first time in the frachise’s long history, released in episodes over a number of months. This is a great thing for fans of the series, as the wait for Hitman 2 was much less painful than a lot of waits for a game sequel can be.
Hitman 2—which drops the episodic format and opts for the more traditional main game with post-release DLC—was released to the masses this week, giving fans a new set of targets to pursue as the deadly Agent 47. You can read more about the new game and watch a pair of launch trailers below.
A new video has been released for the upcoming Hitman 2 which is titled “Untouchable.”
The video offers small peeks at the various locations you’ll find in the game. This includes New Zealand, Miami, Colombia, India, Austria, a mysterious location in the North Atlantic called the Isle of Sgà il, and a place called Whittleton Creek which they first identified as being Vermont but have since changed for some reason.
You can find more information on the locations and check out the video below.
The first Elusive Target for the upcoming Hitman 2 has been revealed, and it is none other than Sean Bean, star of The Lord of the Rings, Game of Thrones, and much more.
The mission, which will be called “The Undying” and will arrive shortly after the game’s launch, features Bean as a former MI5 agent turned assassin. You can find much more info on the announcement and watch a live-action reveal video starring Bean below.
A new gameplay video for Hitman 2 has been released by developer IO Interactive and publisher Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment. The video looks at some of the tools Agent 47 can use to complete his missions in the new game.
The video is the third in a series of “How to Hitman” videos. Click on over to the other side for the video along with more information on the game, the previous two videos in the series, and a trailer for the Columbia location.
