Hitman Episode 5 Video Teases Agent 47's Toughest Challenge Yet

Agent 47 is heading to Colorado for the next Hitman episode, "Freedom Fighters." The chapter will debut next week, but ahead of that, Square Enix has now released a teaser trailer for the content.

In the very brief video, we see Agent 47 infiltrating a farm compound that serves as a training camp for a private militia. The teaser spotlights some of the brutal kills that 47 can perform on his mission. The full trailer is coming next week, arriving on September 27 when the new content debuts.

Freedom Fighters sees players on a mission to locate and take down four targets (previous chapters had two main targets), each of whom is "very different" and "very dangerous." They each have unique skills, including "environmental terrorism" and "chemical interrogation."

Hitman Episode 5 won't be a walk in the park, according to Square Enix. "This will be the toughest assignment yet for Agent 47. Players must utilize all the skills learned so far," the developer said when announcing the chapter earlier this month.

Freedom Fighters, which is the penultimate episode in Hitman's first season, comes out on September 27 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. Hannes Seifer, studio head at developer IO Interactive, explained that Freedom Fighters is a "key episode" that will "add serious momentum to the story and set up an intriguing season finale for players."
