Hitman Christmas Special Planned
It's the most wonderful time of the year! Especially if you happen to be a Hitman, or in broader terms, a fan of the Hitman series. IO Interactive have a special gift for fans of the newest Hitman game. What is it? Well, it's a new Christmas themed mission set in Paris, where you'll don a murderous Santa Claus outfit . It's set to release on Tuesday, 13th December. You can find more information in the trailer below:


The official Hitman website reveals "The 'Holiday Hoarders' mission gives a festive feeling to the existing Paris location with snow, decorations and even presents, which have been scattered all around the palace. Unfortunately, not everyone in attendance at the fashion show is there to spread festive joy. Two thieves have gained entrance to the fashion show event and are stealing the presents. As Agent 47, it's your job to stop them, for good. If you are able to get to the presents first, feel free to open them and use whatever you find inside to help eliminate these two sticky bandits…"

Hopefully from that paragraph excerpt you get the gist of what this update will be about. I really do hope that the sticky bandits is a reference to Home Alone 2, I can have that as my Christmas wish.

The mission is being released in support of World Cancer Research, which IO Interactive are in support of and are also asking players for voluntary donations to the charity in question. A lovely gesture, bloody good Christmas spirit lads.

As you can probably tell by the image provided in this news article, there are also a number of other releases coming to Hitman over the next few weeks. This will include a new contract, a new target and already added is the Master Sniper Challenge Pack. Hopefully this content is a great addition, it's for a great cause after all.
