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 today released the Hitman 2 July 2019 content roadmap providing a detailed look at the robust lineup of downloadable content (DLC) and free updates in store for players throughout the month.

As part of this content rollout, the next Sniper Assassin map, ‘The Prison,’ will be available on July 30 for all Hitman 2 Expansion Pass owners and will transport players to the frigid tundra of Siberia where they can unlock the Druzhina 34 ICA Arctic sniper rifle.

Additionally, players can look forward to a range of free live content available for all Hitman 2 owners, including a new challenge pack, featured contracts, escalations, outfits and more.
