The launch trailer for next week’s Hitman episode has appeared online five days ahead of time.

The trailer (above) was posted earlier today by PlayStation Europe, and has yet to be taken down. UPDATE: It’s now been made private. If you missed it, AllGamesDelta has uploaded it to Twitter. It wasn’t supposed to go live until next Tuesday, September 27.

In the video, you’ll see Agent 47 take out a variety of armed patrols and get a closer look at the new tools available at his disposal. There also seems to be a nod back to Hitman Absolution, with 47 now seemingly able to blend in as a scarecrow.

“Agent 47 must hunt down the evasive Shadow Client that has been eluding the ICA,” reads the video’s description. “With four targets to take out, the “Freedom Fighters” mission delivers an intense infiltration mission that forces players to evolve trusted tactics. The area is extremely hostile, with a newly built perimeter fence and patrols around the clock. “Episode 5: Colorado rewards with huge story revelations as the season builds towards a thrilling climax.”

Episode 5 launches next Tuesday, September 27. A final episode set in Japan is due to release later this year.
