Agent 47 is getting around, as announcements at Summer Game Fest revealed upcoming collaborations with James Bond and MindsEye, with Le Chifre coming to Hitman.
Due to release June 10, MindsEye will feature Hitman himself later this summer, as the character takes on a contract in Redrock City—but that news was quickly overshadowed by another announcement.
A trailer then revealed the addition of the iconic James Bond villain Le Chifre arriving in Hitman, with Agent 47 tasked with taking him down. Watch it below.
New Elusive Target
The trailer showed off Mads Mikkelsen reprising the role he played opposite Daniel Craig in 2006’s Casino Royale as a new elusive target in Hitman: World of Assassination.
Agent 47 is in attendance for the high-stakes poker game arranged in Paris, with the footage showing him climbing in a drainage pipe, blending in as a waiter, and as a player himself.
Premium content comes in the form of The Banker Pack, featuring a King of Cards suit for Agent 48, a casino chip, rope, a silenced pistol, and more, while playing the mission provides a free reward for 007: First Light.
The elusive target is available from June 6 until July 6, on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PC, and the Nintendo Switch family of consoles.
