Hitman 2 will see players perform contract hits on powerful, high-profile targets in exotic locations around the world.

Featuring entirely new hyper-detailed sandboxes full of living, breathing environments to explore, Hitman 2 offers players the freedom to plan the ultimate assassination utilizing an assortment of tools, weapons, disguises and a variety of stealth techniques to creatively trigger their own unique chain of events.

Hitman 2 takes players on a global adventure across a mix of bustling international locations, including a vibrant Miami setting with the colorful ambience of an in-progress motorsport race bringing a new backdrop to the series. From sun-drenched streets to dark and dangerous rainforests, each intricate location provides multiple paths to discover and unparalleled game depth.

Continuing the ultimate spy thriller story, Hitman 2 allows players to take on the role of the masterful Agent 47 and embark on a mission to hunt the elusive Shadow Client and unravel his militia once and for all. However, when 47 learns the hidden truth about his past, nothing will ever be the same.

Hitman 2 introduces new ways to play with the Sniper Assassin mode, a standalone feature that brings a co-op experience to the Hitman series for the first time, allowing two players to work together online to take down their targets. Sniper Assassin can also be enjoyed in a single player mode for those who want to play as Agent 47.

Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment and IO Interactive released a new Hitman 2 trailer showcasing the upcoming “Siberia” Sniper Assassin Map, all-new downloadable content (DLC) arriving tomorrow (July 30) for all Expansion Pass owners. The latest long-range mission transports players to the Perm-14 prison facility located near the frigid Siberian tundra, one of the harshest climates on the planet, as they take on the solo role of Agent 47 or team up as operatives, Stone or Knight, via the franchise-first online cooperative mode.

In this latest map for Sniper Assassin mode, players must eliminate two targets and incite a prison riot to cover their tracks. The two primary targets within the mission are Roman Khabko, a renowned Russian mobster with suspected political ties, and Vitaly Reznikov, warden at the privately-owned prison who has been offered a bribe to facilitate an early release for Khabko. To complete the mission, both targets must be eliminated along with Reznikov’s mercenary guards, known as the Siberian Tigers. Players must take them out before it’s too late as Khabko’s release could set off a chain of events with negative diplomatic implications. 

The new map is packed with opportunities, achievements and hidden secrets to explore, along with unique gameplay moments allowing players to hide bodies and set entire buildings on fire by steering the prison riot around the facility. Completing challenges within the mission will also progress mastery with the ICA Druzhina 34 Arctic sniper rifle, Agent 47’s weapon of choice for this assignment. Reaching the highest mastery level with this rifle will permanently unlock it for use within all sandbox locations in Hitman 2.

The Hitman 2 Expansion Pass is available now for $39.99, which includes Expansion Pack 1 and Expansion Pack 2. The Expansion Pass is also included as part of the Hitman 2 Gold Edition, featuring New York and next upcoming location, new Sniper Assassin maps, challenges, missions, outfits and weapons, as well as the Executive Pack containing the Italian black leather briefcase and ICA 19 Blackballer pistol in-game items, all for $99.99.

Hitman 2 is available for PS4, Xbox One and PC.
