Square Enix today announced a schedule change in the release plan for Hitman , reducing the density of the first episode and going to increase the number of later releases. Last year the company had in fact announced that the game would come the March 11 with a first episode that has three locations (France, Italy, Morocco) and then receive other locations during the next few months, but we discover today that March will come only the quest "Prologue" and set in Paris.

This will be followed by further episodes: in April the Italian mission, while Morocco will be released in May to continue in the following months, with those in Thailand, USA and Japan, that will conclude the "season". As planned, these releases will be added weekly events organized by developers who will add in real time new missions and goals in the locations already granted, making the gaming experience never ends and that there is always a challenge to be taken for lovers of Agent 47.

Of course this will also change the price of the game: while originally the first package with the three locations would have cost $ 34.99, now one with the only prologue and Paris will cost $ 15, while all subsequent will cost $ 10 each (as always we expect a 1:1 ratio between price in euros and dollars). Those who want to get the full experience you can buy the pack "Full Experience" at the price of $ 60, while those who want to block the episodes from 2 onwards having already bought the first will buy the "Upgrade Pack" to $ 50. Confused? Then we summarize:

• March: Prologue and Paris-$ 15
• April: Italy-$ 10
• May: Morocco-$ 10
• June: Thailand-$ 10
• July: USA-$ 10
• August: Japan (season finale)-$ 10
• Full Experience Pack: all 6 episodes-60 $
• Upgrade Pack: Episodes 2-6-$ 50

Those who prefer buying digital disks, finally, will have to wait until the end of the year for the retail release of the full game.

We will update you when the details further news on the title, including videos and screenshots of gameplay.
