IO Interactive has just dropped a surprise Elusive Target mission in
HITMAN World of Assassination, and it features a very familiar face.
Multi-platinum rapper and Muay Thai advocate Wiz Khalifa enters the fray
as “The Wizard,†a brutal fighter Agent 47 must neutralize. The mission
is available for free from June 5 to July 5, 2026, across all major
platforms.
A High-Stakes Duel on Isle of Sgà il
Revealed during Summer Games Fest, the new mission—“The Wizardâ€â€”sends Agent 47 back to the Ark Society’s headquarters. The target is Taylor Graves, a former star boxer turned Muay Thai specialist whose nickname comes from his seemingly alchemic ability to turn everything he touches into gold. Graves has been invited to a private duel against Tim Quinn, CEO of Quantum Leap. Your job isn’t just to eliminate Graves—it’s to protect Quinn and ensure Graves loses the fight, by any means necessary.

Why Isle of Sgà il Again?
IO Interactive notes that the HITMAN community has shown strong interest in Isle of Sgà il gameplay over recent months. Rather than a simple reskin, this Elusive Target introduces a fully new character, fresh dialogue, and the unusual objective of keeping a different NPC alive while stopping a fighter mid-duel. With over one million monthly active players, the studio continues to lean on community feedback to reshape existing locations in unexpected ways.
