IO Interactive has announced the latest elusive target mission for Hitman World of Assassination, this time with none other than rapper Eminem.
The new elusive target mission will see Eminem teaming up with Agent 47 to finally put Slim Shady to rest for good. The new mission will be available free from December 1st through the 31st.
Here’s a rundown on the new content, plus a trailer:
Eminem vs Slim Shady – Playable for free starting December 1st
Rap icon Eminem joins the World of Assassination both as himself and his twisted alter ego, Slim Shady. In his latest album, “The Death of Slim Shady” the rapper attempted to put his other self away, but now Eminem recruits the legendary assassin Agent 47 to put his past away permanently. In a surreal new mission crafted by Eminem in collaboration with IOI and creative director/producer Paul Rosenberg, the level is packed with dreamlike twists that mirror Slim Shady’s unhinged reality. Operatives find themselves in a medical facility in Hokkaido that has been twisted into the Popsomp Hills Asylum. Agent 47 will have to track Slim Shady across multiple areas, such as his broadcasting studio, to take him out without being detected. There are abundant Eminem references in the mission from throughout the rapper’s discography, such as a poisoned plate of the iconic Mom’s Spaghetti and a performance of “Houdini”.
