Hitman Elusive Target #2 Now Live in Sapienza

Written by Brandon Hofer on May 27, 2016

News: The second elusive target is now available in Hitman but you only have a small amount of time to try and take him out.

Square Enix has revealed that the second elusive target in Hitman is now live in Sapienza across all platforms. A briefing video is below (and in-game) to help you determine the approximate location of the target. It should go without saying but you will need to own Episode 2: Sapienza in order to access this content.

Elusive Targets are part of the live content being published for Hitman in-between episodes and represent a new game mode debuting for players. They are not going to be easy but if you can prove yourself, you’ll earn in-game rewards for completing multiple Elusive Target contracts. You will receive the first reward, the signature suit from Hitman: Absolution for successfully completing 5 Elusive Target contracts. Complete 10 Elusive Target contracts to receive the signature suit from Blood Money. Future rewards will include versions of those suits with gloves.

The Elusive Targets are specially crafted, unique targets, which come with particular rules:

An Elusive Target is a once in a lifetime experience

They are available for a limited time only in game...about 48 hours

Intel on the target will be limited

They will not appear in Instinct mode or the mini map and their locations will not be revealed to you. You will have to go and find them.

Plan accordingly before you engage your target

Your target can only die once

If you die during the mission, that’s it. If you fail there are no second chances.

When the time runs out they are gone for good

This Elusive target will be available until Sunday, May 29, at 14:00 CEST/05:00 PDT. Only 53% of players successfully got the first Elusive target. Will you be able to take out this one?
