Hitman: World of Assassination on iOS Carries a $70 Price Tag

Hitman: World of Assassination has officially launched on iOS devices, arriving with a price point that has surprised many players. While the initial location is offered for free, accessing the full game content requires a payment of US$70.

Interestingly, this $70 cost for the complete game actually presents a more economical option compared to purchasing all 25 individual levels separately at $3 each, which would result in a higher total expenditure. Hitman: World of Assassination encompasses the content from Hitman, Hitman 2, and Hitman 3. The developers have also confirmed that the popular Freelancer mode will be integrated into the game via a future update. The title supports both intuitive touch controls and external gaming controllers for flexible gameplay.

Beyond the core game unlock, players have the option to acquire additional downloadable content (DLC). In total, the game features microtransaction opportunities accumulating to a sum of $135. A comprehensive breakdown of these prices is provided further below. It`s worth noting that World of Assassination generally maintains a similar price structure on other platforms and is frequently available at discounted rates. For example, the PC version can currently be purchased for $23.

The complimentary introductory level for the iOS edition includes the ICA Training Facility tutorial and the Sebastian Principle escalation mission, set in Dubai. The complete game package demands a substantial 43GB of storage, a considerable size for a mobile application.

For another mobile platform, the Switch 2, the World of Assassination title is priced at US$60. As of now, there has been no official announcement regarding a release for Android devices.

The $70 price tag for World of Assassination on iOS draws parallels to Capcom`s previous pricing decisions for its own AAA mobile ports. For instance, the iOS version of Resident Evil 7, priced at $20, reportedly only achieved approximately 2,000 downloads during its initial month.

IO Interactive, the acclaimed developer behind the Hitman series, is currently engaged in the development of a new James Bond game, tentatively titled 007: First Light, alongside a distinct new fantasy game project.
