- Hitman's latest free Elusive Target mission makes you Bruce Lee's bodyguard, and is out now - 25 September 2025
Bruce Lee is in Hitman now. Unfortunately, you don’t get to play as him. Fortunately, you do not have to fight him. Oh, don’t look at me like that, Agent 47. You might be the last word in swatting people with Wet Floor signs, but I’ve yet to see you perform a credible one-inch punch. Perhaps you’d get the drop on Bruce Lee if you threw up on him after swallowing an irradiated carbon rod, but I don’t fancy your chances in the context of a proper Bangkok martial arts tournament - like the one depicted in Hitman’s latest Elusive Target mission, the Dragon. Here be trailer. Read more
- Hitman's latest target is MMA lad Conor McGregor, even though Agent 47 can probably avoid his fists of fury by just shooting him in the face - 27 June 2024
Get this - Conor McGregor, yeah the loud Irish guy of MMA and, er, other stuff fame is coming to Hitman World of Assasination as Agent 47 next big elusive target. I bet the bald guy'd be scared too, if he didn't have access to guns that kind of make it a bit pointless having a lethal rear naked choke. Yep, as announced by Io Interactive, McGregor himself will be arriving in the big amalgamation of most recent Hitman games between today, June 27, and July 29. He's the latest elusive target on Agent 47's list, going by the codename "The Disruptor", which is also the moniker of most unruly schoolchildren. In case you're wondering, The Disruptor is "a multi-millionaire MMA Fighter with worldwide fame who started a feud with the CEO of a prominent tech company, putting a target on his back in the process", with the setup being that McGregor's set to fight that CEO - a guy called Tim - in a c…
- A new Hitman 3 mission briefing video explains how Freelancer mode works - 12 January 2023
The long-awaited Freelancer mode for Hitman 3 goes live later this month, tasking the world’s blandest professional killer with taking down nefarious organisations one target at a time.

You can watch the mission briefing below, if you’re feeling suitably assassinatey. Read more
- These incredible Hitman 2 speedruns will make you believe an assassin can fly - 12 January 2023
I don't mean to brag, but I'm pretty good at Hitman. I've got all sorts of level masteries, possess loads of exploding doodads, and can reliably bang out a Silent Assassin rating on any map from the recent games. At least, that's what I thought until about 45 minutes ago, when I began watching the entries for a $1000 Hitman 2 speedrun challenge , created and hosted by a YouTuber named Atrioc. I now realise my meagre talents mean nothing, and will retire in shame forthwith... Read more.

- Hitman 3 has already recouped its development costs - 29 January 2021
Assassination experts Io Interactive booted their latest murder man game out the door and are now proudly announcing that Hitman 3 , despite some server issues in its first few days, has already recouped its development costs. Folks seem to have having a grand old time in Ian Hitman's latest adventure, which hopefully only spells good news for that James Bond game the studio is set to work on next. Read more
- Hitman 3's progress migration site is down but Io Interactive are working on it - 20 January 2021
Launch day log in issues aren’t a thing I’d expect to hear about surrounding a single player stealth romp but hey, it’s 2021. There are no rules. Hitman 3 is out today and it seems that the website meant to import your prior hitmaning progress into the newest murder fest is having a bit of a struggle. That wouldn’t be so bad, except waiting to make that import is effectively keeping players from starting in on Hitman 3. Io Interactive say they’re on the case. (more…)

- Hitman 3 is out now - 20 January 2021
Ian Hitman’s current trilogy of sandbox stealth-o-murder games wraps up today with Hitman 3 , which launched just a few minutes ago. As he fights a vast conspiracy, he’ll do murders in new levels everywhere from England to Dubai, and get into a few of his trademark daft situations. One mission is just a murder mystery potentially starring Ian, an actual murderer, as the detective. Unfortunately, the promised ability for owners of the previous two games to connect and play them inside 3 is delayed. (more…)

- IO Interactive says PC players won't need to rebuy Hitman 2 to play its levels in Hitman 3 after all - 18 January 2021
Last week, IO Interactive said players would need to own Hitman 2 on the Epic Games Store if they wanted to import its levels to Hitman 3 . That was pretty rubbish – for owners of the game on Steam, it meant you either couldn’t have those levels, or you’d need to buy it again. Thankfully, IO are looking for a solution, and guarantee players won’t need to rebuy the game after all. “We are continuing to work with our partners to allow PC players who own Hitman 1 or Hitman 2 to import locations from those games at no additional cost ,” they said on Sunday .

- Despite advertising otherwise, players need to re-buy Hitman 2 to import its levels to Hitman 3 - 16 January 2021
Hitman 3 will no longer offer the ability to import levels from Hitman 2 when it launches later this month, unless players re-purchase Hitman 2 on the Epic Games Store first. Near the bottom of a long and complicated pre-launch guide, developers IO Interactive said the change in plans was “due to various circumstances out of our control.” Hitman 1 and 2 were both released on Steam, while Hitman 3 is launching as an Epic Games Store exclusive.
