We really enjoyed Hitman’s episodic format, but its successor will launch as a full game from day one. IO Interactive has promised a regular stream of content drops and updates, but you won’t have to wait for any of the levels to arrive. Oh, and you’ll be able to play from 13th November – that’s not far away.

The debut trailer reveals the race track level that was teased earlier in the week. “Travel the globe and track your targets across exotic sandbox locations,” the official blurb reads. “From sun-drenched streets to dark and dangerous rainforests, nowhere is safe from the world's most creative assassin, Agent 47.”

There’ll also be a franchise first co-op mode in the form of Sniper Assassin. If you pre-order the game now, you'll be able to test out the sniping mission from today.
