In the newest Hitman mission, your target is not just any celebrity but Slim Shady himself.

Agent 47 vs. Slim Shady

IO Interactive has released the new Elusive Target mission titled Eminem vs. Slim Shady. The mission is available from December 1 to December 31. As the name suggests, Slim Shady will be your target in this new assignment. The mission is free to play, even for those who do not own Hitman 3. Thanks to the Free Starter Pack, absolutely everyone can join in at no cost.

The mission once again follows the classic formula. As Agent 47, you must gain access to the Popsomp Hills Asylum, locate your target, and complete the contract. As always, there are many different approaches you can take to reach your objective.

What is unusual this time is that your client is Eminem himself. With his new album The Death of Slim Shady, Eminem wants to put his alter ego Slim Shady behind him. Now he steps into the Hitman franchise and aims to leave his other self behind once and for all.

From Sean Bean To Slim Shady

Of course, the community is not letting a collaboration like this pass by without comment and is clearly excited for the new mission:

"Now this looks like a job for me."
"Ain't no way we got a slim shady/eminem dlc before gta 6."
"Hitman has the hottest collabs."

Hitman has delivered some of the most memorable crossovers in recent gaming history. Sean Bean, Jean-Claude Van Damme, Conor McGregor, Gary Busey, and Dimitri Vegas all received their own Elusive Target missions. Eminem is therefore simply the newest face in a long line of celebrities who have appeared as targets in Hitman.
