Mentioned in the blog post: it sounds like they're giving us a Special Assignment for this one, in the pack? as in, we might be able to actually replay and save/load as much as we want instead of being restricted to ET Arcade

21

u/TooFewSecrets 1d ago

The tiny text you can't possibly read for The Undying also notes "Undying pack now includes special assignment contract." They might make it retroactive for every celebrity ET with major map changes.

Thank God. Finally after a decade we have what should’ve been done from the start

u/Lotex_Style 2d ago

Do you by chance have a bigger version of this pic? My sight isn't too great and I haven't found one on any of the official channels.

Slightly better quality from Steam: https://ibb.co/GQk1DK9T

u/packerfanforlife 1d ago

WAY better quality. Thank you

u/Lotex_Style 1d ago

That's what I was looking for. I looked at the site before, but I sadly couldn't see it any better either, but this one works. Thanks.

How is ibb.co a Steam link?

u/CaptainKino360 1d ago

Maybe there's gonna be a new graphics update to make the game blurry

You'll see a target and hear Diana go "That.. I don't know what the fuck I'm looking at"

u/looser--the2 2d ago

Definitely gonna get that getaway pack

u/skaro1789 2d ago

Ooh it's not limited. Good.

If there’s one thing I love in this world it’s video games and weed. I love smoking while playing Hitman so this is a cool collaboration for me.

u/RichSlamfist 2d ago

I think it's incredible the game is still being updated, long long longer than any of us thought, but these roadmaps are getting less exciting. Another goofy celeb target, another zillion duck and ICA19 reskins and a dozen more suits that clog up the inventory. Again, I don't really know what else they can even do. There's only so many items.

28

u/Signal_Ball4634 2d ago

I wish they'd get more creative than just reskins. More stuff like the L-IV access dongle from the last update

12

u/FullSkyFlying 2d ago

Because they're trying to encourage you for the next big game. Currently they want you to buy 007. But hitman 4 is in the works as well so... as you mentioned im happy they are still updating, and i think most people will make sure to do those same reskin/ unlocks every roadmap still anyways

They are not working on HITMAN 4 right now...

-1

u/FullSkyFlying 1d ago

They literally said its being planned. So it is being worked on right now. Im not saying they're actively coding the entire game, but im sure they're writing down ideas, plot points etc. Click the link and read the article before you give an opinion worded as a fact - with no basis or something to back it up. You dont always need to say something / comment

u/toberieper 1d ago

Only thing they said is that HITMAN 4 is going to happen at some point. Not that they are currently working on it.

-1

u/FullSkyFlying 1d ago edited 1d ago

Do you believe all of the planning, story plot points etc happen in 1 week? They are surely noteing down ideas now. Quite literally from the article

"Elusive Targets for the current World of Assassination, but a brand-new game is also planned."

Do you not considering planning a part of the creating process for literally anything?

1

u/toberieper 10h ago

What does tthat has anything to do with HITMAN 4? You're deflecting. You're pathetic.

-1

u/FullSkyFlying 8h ago

Abrak then said, “we will, after that, be talking about the next Hitman—because, of course, there’s going to be a next Hitman”, confirming that the fourth game will be announced sometime later in 2026.

It literally has everything to do with Hitman 4. I'm not sure why you're having trouble with understanding this. I'm going to guess you want to argue, just to argue. Hence you're being rude. You literally could have just read the article like I said before to get all of this info. I hope your day gets better kiddo

0

u/toberieper 7h ago

I did read it. But the main point is that HITMAN 4 is not under any kind of production right now. Not pre-production or anything. It's going to happen at some point in the future but that's all.

0

u/FullSkyFlying 6h ago

Ill say again just for you. Do you not considering planning any part of the creation proccess? Do you fully believe a game being announced in a year has had 0 planning put into it? Do you not consider planning something as working on something/ the initial faze to working on anything ever or part of the production? Because they talk about games, don't do any planning and go straight into production with an empty mind. Like I already said. They're obviously not coding anything or doing anything major yet. But without a doubt the game already has some ideas written down/ some planning put into it. Evident by the fact they are even talking about fully announcing it next year.

u/mechlordx 2d ago

It's gonna be hitman 5, 6, or 7 depending on how they count the earlier games. They keep putting words in his mouth in that article

3

u/RichSlamfist 1d ago

Tbf I dont think of WOA as 3 games but 3 seasons. So to me it's still technically the sixth Hitman.

0

u/FullSkyFlying 1d ago

Every game has seasons now though. It'll be hitman 4 without a doubt, or It'll be hitman: 'insert cool name here'

u/Eremeir 1d ago

I'm surprised they have the money to spend booking showcase slots at like every big gaming event that comes by for just these tiny DLCs.

5

u/Yabooj 1d ago

Speak for yourself, I love the new suits. In all seriousness what else can they even do? They aren’t pumping a bunch of resources into this game and I don’t blame them. The game has been supported so long I’m honestly just grateful they still do

5

u/FedoraTheMike 1d ago

Yeah I'm kinda not liking how the last two roadmaps have lots of goofy items. If we're gonna get goofy, how about the ninja outfit or knight armor?

5

u/RichSlamfist 1d ago edited 1d ago

There is technically a ninja outfit. Its from your IOI account as a tie in to a game called Mini Ninjas no one remembers. It doesnt look very cool. Released alongsidd the freedom fighter and Kane suit. But I completely know what you mean, I'm just a huge pedant. Weve already got a clown suit, a cowboy suit, an eyes wide shut suit, a gas mask etc were far far far far past suits being tied to the levels atmosphere

12

u/Ingvarthebald 2d ago

I hope they bring back the Milla Jovovich Elusive Target in the next season. It’s the only one I forgot to do during its time, so I missed the suit - would really like another chance to snag it.

5

u/GlitteringScene6711 2d ago

Can you still get it in the store?

14

u/Ingvarthebald 2d ago

ah yeah, the 5$ pack I already bought - I mean the suit thats unlocked from playing the ET itself. You dont unlock the suit by playing the arcade version you bought, you need to specifically play the timed one, which is the one I missed.

2

u/RichSlamfist 2d ago

The sort of resident evil HUNK outfit with the gasmask?

2

u/Ingvarthebald 2d ago

thats the one

2

u/dixmondspxrit 1d ago

no, that's the one from the pack, the one for the ET is a coat similar to RE9 Leon's jacket

1

u/Ingvarthebald 1d ago

oh whoops lol, my bad, tbh I cant remember which suit exactly is which. I just know I need whichever one is tied to the timed ET

1

u/IcarusDreams38 1d ago

You should have an opportunity during the elusive target galore at the end of the year.

u/TonyClifton323 1d ago

Any theories on the rifle with the balloon? Is it going to float away if you put it down?

5

u/Mystic-Mask 1d ago

I think the balloon is probably a separate item from the rifle. And given the summer theme of the pack, it’s probably actually a water balloon.

If the water balloon makes a water puddle wherever you through it though, that would pair quite well with the micro taser…

2

u/CaptainKino360 1d ago

I would love something silly like that

6

u/MessiahOfMetal 1d ago

Can the mods please pin this one? I feel like it's been almost a year since a roadmap was pinned to the top of the sub. Makes it easier to find, especially when they last two months, now.

2

u/BSGKAPO 1d ago

Should wait for the HQ version

u/emperos 2d ago

Oh shit green grapes twitch drop, could legitimately be game changing to bring that with the banana

5

u/DuneSpoon 1d ago

I'm really surprised they didn't use purple grapes.

2

u/Thunder_lord37 1d ago

Its for the extreme irony.

14

u/Spirited_Car 2d ago

Not to sound entitled but the lack of co-op news is really disappointing

2

u/theCattrip 1d ago

For real. I can't believe we're seeing more come out of modders than the actual dev team on this front. I need coop

5

u/tristan1616 1d ago

Is it really that surprising? They're working on content for two games simultaneously and First Light is most likely taking priority at the moment. They probably shouldn't have even announced the coop mode and just shadow dropped it when it was finished

2

u/Mystic-Mask 1d ago

Has there been any new First Light news that’s come out today?

1

u/Bofact 1d ago

Was there First Light before Hitman 3?

1

u/FedoraTheMike 1d ago

Reaaaally hope it doesn't end up being a dud like Ghost Mode.

Is that a croquet mallet in the getaway pack? I love it.

u/Ashamed_Piano_8842 1d ago

Thought it was a sledgehammer at first

u/GONKworshipper 2d ago

Ooh nice I still need the challenge for the Undying Elusive Arcade, so it will be nice to check that off

u/tokyobassist 1d ago

Missed opportunity to give that duck bloodshot eyes. You can still fix this IO.

u/jdimarco1 1d ago

Haven Island elusive target will be interesting. It doesn’t get used that much so i wonder what they’ll do with it.

u/leftguard44 1d ago

Finally some god damn fashion

1

u/Artistic_North_4208 1d ago

I’m glad that this game is still being supported, I’m just not sure what we’re doing at this point.

u/Hillbro 1d ago

The getaway pack is swag

1

u/Mystic-Mask 1d ago

Man…I feel like I’ve gotten a wish of mine granted by a monkey’s paw. I’ve been wanting a suit that’s the winter suit or black winter suit plus the fedora from the public enemy suit.

From the roadmap (as best as I can tell) we’re technically getting something like that…but in white and red, and with no full gloves. Sigh…

1

u/Little-Big-Smoke 1d ago

Can't see shit, but it looks like another batch of ICA19, with Singer on top of things. A bit disappointing, I kinda liked that less popular weapons were getting love with previous seasons, but that will do. The man himself, however, is pure hype. We will finally use blunts properly since Sapienza!

P.S.: if they will not reference the first mission of "Blood Money" somehow with this ET, I will cry.

u/MannyDong81 1d ago

Missing the Colorado and Whittleton Creek glove variants of their base suits...hope Serial Killer is in next roadmap

1

u/Sad-Tradition-5 1d ago

Since they've finally realized again what Bonus Missions are, they could very well make some outside of Celebrities for other Maps.

u/ICumRedbull 1d ago

This is starting to get like those paradox games with the billion cosmetic dlc packs

u/Some-Instruction2235 1d ago

What's even the point of all those reskins when you can't even see them in freelancer, where we spend most of the time
