At this point, Hitman needs no introduction. Fans that have been keeping tabs on this season’s episodes already know the ins and outs of the gameplay. We know the plot has been a touchy topic ‒ more misses than hits ‒ and we know Sapienza is the best location of the bunch. With episode four, it’s a matter of whether or not Io Interactive can nudge that creative needle a little farther, but the imagination behind Agent 47’s detour to Thailand seldom surfaces at all.
What do we have here? Another ornate estate to prowl? Hitman charts a course for Bangkok’s Himmapan hotel resort in this episode, and although I cannot question Io Interactive’s ability to shape multi-billion dollar mansions, I fear the team has since depleted its bag of environmental tricks. The season debut transported players to a dapper French manor during a sophisticated fashion show. The...

Well isn’t this a unique way of announcing Hitman‘s next Dlc episode? Opting to do away with the usual launch trailer showing Agent 47 in a humorous disguise about to murder someone, developer Io Interactive has instead decided to release a music video (above) to celebrate the August 16 release date for Episode 4: Bangkok.
So, uh, what’s the connection? According to Io’s own words, 47’s main targets this time around will be Jordan Cross, front man of “trending indie band” The Class and the family lawyer, Ken Morgan.
Read on for more details of Episode 4‘s setting: the Himmapan hotel.
The “Club 27” mission transports players to the opulence and splendour of the Himmapan luxury hotel and resort, situated on the Chao Phraya River outside Bangkok. Your targets are rising rock star Jordan Cross, front man of trending indie band The Class, and Cross’ family lawyer, Ken Morgan.
