Set in Colorado, USA, Hitman Episode 5 is releasing on September 27 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC, Io-Interactive announced today.
Titled Freedom Fighters, the story mission sees Agent 47 infiltrating a Colorado farm compound that’s been converted into a private militia training camp. There’s four targets to take out – Sean Rose, Maya Parvati, Ezra Berg and Penelope Graves – and Episode 5 also includes new opportunities and disguises, 70 challenges that will unlock brand new gear, and weapons and items for use in all existing locations.
Episode 5: Colorado also “rewards players with huge story revelations as the season builds towards a thrilling climax.” The season finale, set in Japan, will release later this year. Then, on January 31, 2017, the complete first season will be available on a retail disc. Io-Interactive Studio Head Hannes Seifert said:
