Now that Io Interactive is on its own and has full control of the Hitman IP, it is announcing plans for the future of the current season of Hitman. While no Elusive Targets are planned, new Featured Contacts, Challenge Packs, and player-curated Featured Contacts are coming.
The first update will arrive on August 11, 2017. There will be ten new Featured Contracts and The Art of Revenge Challenge Pack. The ten contracts will be ones that had player involvement in picking them. The Art of Revenge pack will have five challenges in Hokkaido with a unique item as a reward for completing all of them.
The first player-curated Featured Contacts will arrive later in August 2017. Mendietinha, a Brazilian streamer, will be the first curator. His choices will be an Io Interactive blog post explaining them.
Future updates were also discussed. In September 2017, more Contracts and another Challenge Pack will be added. Some kind of exciting announcements were also teased.
Hitman is available for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC.
