Hitman episode 3: Marrakesh launches next week
We really liked Hitman's first expansion, Sapienza, and are really looking forward to the next one. Luckily we won't have to wait long.
Today Square Enix announced that Hitman Episode 3: Marrakesh will launch next Tuesday, May 31. Here's how they describe the new area in the press release:
"...the team set out to build a location that was both teeming with life and things to do. Marrakesh has been built with a maze of alleys, a range of souks that line the medina walls and a fully fletched shisha café. Moving upwards, players can enjoy the shade on the signature rooftop terraces of Marrakesh.
Just beyond the busy marketplace, you will find an architectural marvel in the shape of the Swedish Consulate building. The very embodiment of minimalistic Scandinavian design, a mix of glass, concrete and wood offering a powerful contrast to the blazing heat just outside its walls."
Once again we need to eliminate two targets. In this new mission, "Gilded Cage", we'll have to eliminate private banker Claus Strandberg, holed up inside the secure Swedish Consulate, and army General Reza Zaydan, protected by an elite squad of soldiers in his temporary headquarters in the heart of the city.
It'll also be interesting to see how Contracts mode, Elusive Targets and Escalation Contracts will be handled in a city like Marrakesh.
