Fans of the HITMAN series of games have everything to cheer for their favourite bald assassin as IO Interactive has announced a collaboration with Solutions 2 GO (S2G), a global distributor of video games to release a physical edition of HITMAN World of Assassination for the PlayStation 5 on August 25th 2023.
Physical releases are getting lesser by the day, and even I have turned to digital games despite owning a PS5 with a disc drive. Instead, physical releases are inching closer towards being special editions, and the folks at S2G have decided to give this physical release of HITMAN World of Assassination the same treatment.
Each physical copy of the game includes a set of 3 collector’s art cards, featuring artwork from the luxurious and hyper-detailed game locations. Each card features imagery from an iconic game destination in the trilogy: the mysterious ICA Training Facility, the high-octane thrills of a Miami racetrack, and the luxurious elegance of the tallest skyscraper in Dubai.
In addition, a limited number of art cards (50 for Europe/ANZ and 50 for the Americas) will be autographed by the IO Interactive development team and randomly inserted into physical copies of the game.
HITMAN World of Assassination brings together the best of HITMAN 1, HITMAN 2 and HITMAN 3 in a bumper package of content that includes the main campaign, Contracts mode, Escalations, Elusive Target Arcades and featured live content.
HITMAN World of Assassination also includes the ‘Freelancer’ mode, a new way to play on your own terms, that combines rogue-like elements and deep strategic planning with a persistent and infinitely replayable gameplay experience.
