In Hitman: World of Assassination, players will have the thrilling opportunity to take down Le Chiffre, a villain portrayed by Mads Mikkelsen in the James Bond saga.

Previously featured in Casino Royale, Le Chiffre is known for hosting a high-stakes poker game that James Bond infiltrates. Developer IO Interactive is enhancing the thrills of the game by introducing this beloved character as a target in a new seasonal event available until July 6, 2025.

This update widens the gameplay horizon, bringing fresh challenges and contracts to keep the community engaged. As part of this event, players can enjoy the mission for free, or purchase the character as part of a DLC package that includes exclusive in-game items.

To celebrate what could be a significant tie-in with the Bond franchise, fans can anticipate a season filled with additional contracts featuring other returning characters from the world of Hitman.

“The inclusion of Le Chiffre not only enriches the game but suggests potential expansions connecting our beloved Hitman targets with future 007 themes,” said a spokesperson for IO Interactive.

In summary, with Mads Mikkelsen’s iconic role reimagined in the Hitman universe, players have more to look forward to as they engage in an intricate game of stealth and strategy against this formidable foe.
