As promised, the next episode for Hitman has been announced and we only have to wait til April 26 to get our hands on it.
Alongside this announcement, IO Interactivehave also released update 1.03 to PS4 and Xbox One. The update will also be coming to PC, with platform-specific fixes and improvements in the near future.
Key updates with this patch include:
The Vampire Magician Challenge Pack includes 10 new challenges that were inspired by how the community have been playing the game.
Each challenge requires you to wear the Vampire Magician disguise while taking down targets using a range of different methods.
Continued improvements to load times
The improvements will be most notable when loading The Showstopper mission in Paris and they’re already working on improving all loading times even more.
Improved responsiveness for in-game menus and image loading
They’ve implemented an image caching system that will improve responsiveness and loading times for all images in the game menu.
Fixed issues with scoring
Primarily, this fixes an issue that resulted in many players earning a “0 second” time bonus and an incorrect score of 210,000. A leaderboard reset will be implemented at a later date.
Continued improvements to connectivity
Server stability improvements.
Missing ‘Requiem Pack’ items have been restored
For those affected, these items will now be available to choose from the planning screen again.
Fixed numerous issues that were causing crashes
General improvements to game stability.
