Tomorrow sees the first Elusive Target appear in Hitman, opening a new game mode in the process.
Elusive Targets are part of the live content being published for Hitman in-between episodes and represent a new game mode debuting for players. The Elusive Targets are specially crafted, unique targets, which come with particular rules:
·        An Elusive Target is a once in a lifetime experience
·        They are available for a limited time only in game – this first Elusive Target will last 48 hours
·        Intel on the target will be limited
·        They will not appear in instinct mode, or the mini map and their locations will not be revealed to you – you’ll have to go and find them
·        Plan accordingly before you engage your target
·        Your target can only die once
·        If you die during the mission, that’s it
·        When the time runs out, they are gone for good
·        If you fail, there are no second chances
Hitman is the first in the franchise to be sold in episodic format. Â Episodes 1 and 2 have already been made available and the Elusive Target modes appear between the new episodes. Â Square Enix have warned players that they may not announce further Elusive Targets, meaning that players need to be vigilant.
