IO Interactive has just dropped a bombshell for Hitman fans with the announcement of the latest elusive target: none other than Mads Mikkelsen’s Le Chiffre from Casino Royale. This exciting crossover event brings a touch of James Bond to the world of assassination in Hitman: World of Assassination.
The new elusive target is available starting today, June 6, and will be in the game until July 6. Players will have the chance to take down the iconic Bond villain and earn exclusive in-game rewards, including a new “King of Cards” suit, silenced pistol, rope, and casino chip. Mikkelsen himself is reprising his role for this DLC, adding an extra layer of authenticity to the experience.
But the excitement doesn’t stop there. IO Interactive also teased their upcoming James Bond game, 007: First Light, set to release in 2026. Players who participate in the Le Chiffre elusive target event will unlock special content for the highly anticipated Bond game, creating a seamless connection between the two worlds.
This announcement comes hot on the heels of the first trailer for 007: First Light, which has already generated a buzz among fans of the iconic spy franchise. The crossover with Hitman adds another layer of intrigue and excitement for both Hitman and James Bond enthusiasts.
Get ready to step into the shoes of Agent 47 once again and take down one of cinema’s most memorable villains in Hitman: World of Assassination. The stakes are high, the rewards are great, and the thrill of the hunt awaits.
