Hitman released on Friday with the Intro Pack, which contains a small tutorial level, a slightly larger training mission, and the first episode set in Paris. IO Interactive will be releasing 7 episodes in total, which are all set to be released “by the end of summer”.
The developer revealed on Twitter that it plans to release an episode each month, with the last one expected to be released in September. If you can wait this long, IO Interactive will release a full boxed copy to retail in January 2017 that contains all 7 episodes.
The next episode set in Italy will launch in April, with the Morocco episode coming after that in May. Japan, USA and Thailand are all confirmed locations as well, although we aren’t sure where the last one will be set. Hopefully in the UK!
If you haven’t already purchased the Full Experience, each episode will cost you £7.99.
The sixth entry in the series is off to a good start, with our very own Dustin Bailey giving it 7.5/10, saying: “it’s got all the fundamentals of a terrific Hitman game, and if the future levels live up to the scale of what’s in this intro pack, then they’ll be massive, densely detailed locations filled with possibilities that will take dozens of playthroughs to fully explore.”
