What are elusive targets?
Elusive targets are exciting new concept that HITMAN 2016 has brought. In this mode, you have access to new targets that roam the existing maps, each with their own set ups, voice acting and different situations to tackle. They are called elusive because they are only available for a limited amount of time, and you only get one shot at them. If you die or fail at a certain objective, the mission is over.
Season 1 had 26 elusive targets which went by, and they are now getting reactivated again for all buyers. Each one of them will be regularly brought to the game in the following months and you will have 10 days to tackle each target. You can consult a list of the targets here.
What are the incentives to completing elusive targets ?
Completing elusive targets will unlock new cosmetic unlocks in form of suits you can use in your loadout. Check the image below for a list of the suits and how to unlock them.
