Eh, as much as I am excited to see Season 2 announced (it's been way too fucking long IOI, gimme that GOTY 2018!), Hitman twitter account posts a lot of stuff like this. Not in any way convinced this has anything to do with Season 2.

Sign me the fuck up there for a day one purchase for whatever edition gives you everything.
Hitman 2016 is the best Hitman game.

I wouldn't expect a season 2 announcement tomorrow. Maybe some more content to fill the gap.

Guess a long weekend is a good time to announce if any.

I do see this and next getting those pre E3 announcements.

Tomorrow, maybe not. Very soon? Likely. IOI said in their financial report that Season 2 should be out during this financial year (ending next march), and if they want to continue with the episodic model, they'll have to release Season 2 Episode 1 in the next few months.

It was like playing Silent Assassin all over again
The episode thing even kinda worked here, it's like how multi-shooters launch maps

My only wish was like a home base type area where you could admire your weapons and practice
Maybe a butler who you can lock into a freezer

I was just playing some Hitman last night. I still never got around to playing every episode. If they are going to do a season 2 I'm all in though, I've been a huge fan of the series since the second game.

I saw this as a silly tweet because it's the weekend.

I do think we'll be hearing about Season 2 soon, but after they announce whatever that sniping Hitman project is. They have two Hitman games in development.

Hitman season 2 is one of those games that even leakers probably don't even think it's worth leaking, everyone knows it's a thing, just a matter of waiting is all.
I don't doubt it exists and will be released this year. It's taking too long though. I personally expected them to start Season 2 in 2017 tbh. Guess that Square Enix departure has cost them a lot.

Still not convinced.
I say we need a good old fashioned leak. A screenshot or a short shitty video.
How about a low angle, low light, blurry cell phone pic, that's of the end cards of a trailer that's being shown on a projection screen for some inexplicable reason, which claims its exclusive to the Nintendo Switch and 3DS?

You will probably need to wait year or more for version that will give you everything.
I'm just hoping for a season pass edition that just lets you pay ahead of time. I take it from your comment that this wasn't the case with the first one when the episodes were still coming out? I think I bought the complete edition after all of them came out in 2016.

The way season 1 released was great personally, play a map over and over until you find all the fun stuff to do, put it down for a little while and then a month later you get a whole new map to mess around in.

If they're following the model for the first game, paying full price lets you get everything promised of the Season when it comes out. Patient Zero was made after IO left Square, so it's a DLC and not part of Season One, which finished in January of last year.

I do wonder if the early level concepts some people saw/were told of Season Two are still in, particularly the
cruiseliner mission.

Please be true. I need more Hitman in my life. I absolutely love season 1. It's one of my games of the gen so far.

Yes please, with a side of some photoshopped box art from Brasil.

Edit: apparently there was also this yesterday.

I would be surprised for IOI to announce ahead of E3, but I guess this way it doesn't get lost in a sea of other news?

Have you followed E3 in the past fifteen years? Everything gets announced before E3. That's when you have the whole attention. E3 itself is pointless, you have five minute windows to show your games.

Season 2 has already been confirmed like months ago via financial reports, but this is nice to see. One of my favorite games ever, can't wait for it.

What's the problem with that? I mean, I enjoy E3 in theory for being a hype fest when all our dreams come true, but realistically I don't really care that much about when things get announced.
