The Wizard - Available for free starting June 5^th  

In the new Elusive Target mission, revealed during Summer Games Fest, Agent 47 is tasked with the elimination of Taylor Graves, nicknamed "The Wizard" for his seemingly alchemic touch. Everything he pursued, fighting or finance, turned to gold. Originally a star boxer, he became fascinated by eastern philosophy, which led to being introduced to the world of Muay Thai. With his buried rage, the brutality of the sport enticed him, and he proved himself a worthy fighter. He has been invited to attend a duel at the Ark Society's headquarters on the Isle of Sgail. His opponent is fellow Ark Society member Tim Quinn, CEO of Quantum Leap. Agent 47 mission is to do everything in his power to keep Quinn safe and stop Graves from "winning the fight".

The mission revisits a familiar location and setting, built around a completely new character, and new dialogues and elements. In the past months, the HITMAN community has shown strong interest in the gameplay experience on Isle of Sgàil, this new Elusive Target represents an opportunity to reintroduce that mission in a fresh way. With more than one million active players engaging with HITMAN content every month, community feedback remains an important part of how we evolve the game, and IO Interactive is looking forward to players stepping back into the ring.
