HITMAN: Episode 5 is set in Colorado, USA and will be released on 27th September

Square Enix and IO Interactive announced today that Hitman: Episode 5 will be set in Colorado, USA when it launches on the 27th September.

The penultimate episode will be called “Freedom Fighters” and sees Agent 47 infiltrate a Colorado farm compound that has been converted into a private militia training camp. IO Interactive claim that it’s the hardest mission yet, with four targets to locate and take out.

This is one of the toughest episodes yet. Not only do you have four targets, but from the moment you set foot in Colorado you’re on enemy ground.’Freedom Fighters’ is a key episode, which will add serious momentum to the story and set up an intriguing season finale for players.” Hannes Seifert, Studio Head at Io-Interactive

The season finale comes with episode 6, which will be set in Japan and is set to arrive later in 2016.
