Only players who own Hitman: The Full Experience or have bought both the Intro and Upgrade Packs will be able to download the game’s latest episode – the Summer Bonus Episode – today, IO Interactive has confirmed.
Everybody else will need to wait until “later in the season” to download it, when it will be available to purchase individually “with a third bonus mission for one price”.
That’s different to previous episodes, which have been available to purchase individually at launch as well as rolling out simultaneously to Full Experience/Upgrade Pack owners.
“The Summer Bonus Episode is available for players who own the Full Experience or own the combination of Intro Pack + Upgrade Pack, at no additional cost,” IO says. “For all other players, the Summer Bonus Episode will be available for individual purchase later in the Season, packaged together with a third bonus mission for one price. At that time, Full Experience and Upgrade Pack owners will also get access to the third bonus mission at no additional cost.”

The Summer Bonus Episode, which is due to go live this afternoon, includes two missions set in Sapienza and Marrakesh. One of them, ‘The Icon’, sees Sapienza taken over by a film crew shooting a new sci-fi movie, while the other, ‘A House Built on Sand’, sees players trying to “stop a billion dollar deal taking place”.
Hitman: The Full Experience is available to download for £44.99. Alternatively, you’re able to try the game’s Intro Pack for £11.59 and upgrade to the Upgrade Pack for an additional £36.79.
