Warner Brothers To Publish Hitman Definitive Edition, Launches May 18

Sleeper hit from IO Interactive, Hitman, is seeing yet another chance to shine with Hitman Definitive Edition, when it launches in retail for Xbox One and PS4 on May 18. Warner Bros. Interactive has signed on to help publish the collection, which includes the entire Season One of Hitman, with a few other goodies.

As seen in the overview, which we’ve included below for those interested, on top of the base game, Agent 47 has three brand new suits to play around with based off of old IO Interactive classics, Kane & Lynch, Mini Ninjas and Freedom Fighters, on top of all the additional content that was released alongside the base missions in the season.

Unfortunately this rerelease doesn’t mean that old elusive target missions that have already passed will be rerun, meaning we don’t get another shot at Gary Busey. Some of the add-on content is also included on a separate download code, necessitating another 12 to 24 GB of content to load your hard drive with outside the game. Are you going to check out this game? Let us know in the comments.

The Hitman: Definitive Edition will feature new in-game disguises for Agent 47 inspired by classic IO Interactive titles – Freedom Fighters, Kane & Lynch and Mini Ninjas – celebrating the Danish studio’s 20th anniversary, in addition to all previously released content and game updates from the first season of Hitman.

The Hitman: Definitive Edition will include the following content:

• IO Interactive’s 20th Anniversary Outfit Bundle – Three new outfits inspired by Freedom Fighters, Kane & Lynch and Mini Ninjas
• Hitman Season One (Main Game) – Seven exotic locations from the first season, including Paris, Sapienza, Marrakesh, Bangkok, Colorado and Hokkaido, along with the ICA Facility
• Hitman Game of the Year Edition Content – Four missions from the Patient Zero Campaign, three themed Escalation Contracts that unlock three unique weapons, as well as the Clown Suit, Cowboy Suit and Raven Suit from the recent Game of the Year digital release
• Hitman Summer Bonus Episode – Featuring ICA bonus missions in Sapienza and Marrakesh
• Hitman: Blood Money Requiem Pack – Including the Requiem Suit, Pale Duck Explosive and ICA Chrome Pistol
• All featured Contracts, Escalation Contracts, Challenge Packs and game updates from Hitman Season One and the Hitman Game of the Year Edition

Please note that a portion of add-on content is not pre-loaded on the Hitman: Definitive Edition disc and requires an internet connection. Additional content is approximately 12 to 24 gigabytes depending on platform.

Elusive Targets that have already run and ended may not be available again as these are time limited events.
