We are very excited to reveal a brand new mission that is coming to HITMAN on December 13th, just in time for the holiday season!
"Holiday Hoarders" is a free mission for ALL players that takes place in a festive Paris, which has been overhauled with Christmas trees, snow, decorations and presents.
The mission will be released in support of World Cancer Research Fund and we are asking players to donate whatever they can via www.wcrf-uk.org/hitman
It's important for us to say that a donation is not required to enjoy the Holiday Hoarders mission and that all contributions of any amount are appreciated.
Take a look at the trailer for this mission and read on for more details - plus the full December Live Content Schedule.

The 'Holiday Hoarders' mission gives a festive feeling to the existing Paris location with snow, decorations and even presents, which have been scattered all around the palace. Unfortunately, not everyone in attendance at the fashion show is there to spread festive joy. Two thieves have gained entrance to the fashion show event and are stealing the presents. As Agent 47, it's your job to stop them, for good. If you are able to get to the presents first, feel free to open them and use whatever you find inside to help eliminate these two sticky bandits...
On top of all that, this new mission will add new holiday-specific challenges that offer up an additional reward.
The 'Holiday Hoarders' mission will be added to the game as part of the December Update, which is currently scheduled to arrive for all players on December 13th. As with all of our previous game updates, there will be a short maintenance period whilst we roll out the updates and new content. Specific details regarding the release time and release notes will be posted here on the blog closer to the release date. The new 'Holiday Hoarders' mission will not replace the existing Showstopper mission. Players will be able to choose which version of Paris they want to play.
DECEMBER LIVE CONTENT SCHEDULE
The 'Holiday Hoarders' mission is just one part of a packed schedule of HITMAN content this December; there's something new every week taking you through to 2017. Here's the full schedule of live content coming to the game throughout December.
First up this Thursday (December 8th) is the 'Master Sniper' Challenge Pack. We've created 5 new Sniping-related challenges for Sapienza and completing them all will unlock the 'Jaeger 7 Covert' Sniper Rifle and add it to your inventory. There's a few hints below about how to complete each challenge - and the full details will arrive when the Challenge Pack is automatically added to the game later this week.
