With just a little time left on the Summer roadmap, although we may be a little early, there is nothing quite like a bit of good speculation to discuss what’s next on the horizon in the forthcoming roadmap.
Discuss below potential ideas on what you’d like to see, or what you might think we’ll see in the Autumn/Fall roadmap?
On a personal note, I’m hoping we get those Autumn/Halloween Safehouse decorations! I won’t post any pictures for those that don’t want to be spoilt, but it seems likely we’ll be getting them with us now having the Easter and Xmas decorations!
I kinda wonder if we could have three roadmaps left to end of the year.
We have two roadmaps that will headline a CelebrET, one in fall another in winter.
But then we have Hitman Codename 47, and the Hitman Franchise itself 25th anniversary in November.
It is deserving of its own roadmap headline.
So I could see:
two months CelebrET roadmap September to October
one month Franchise Anniversary roadmap in November
two months CelebrET roadmap December to January
Then the usual February rest.
Which then go to the 10th anniversary of World of Assassination in March 2026.
As for content, the usual.
One item or suit per month. (please no brick reskin, or “cheap suit” based suit)
A twitch drop during the headline.
Featured Contract Batches.
And yeah, definitively the Halloween Safehouse decorations.
I expect those McGregor challenges and stuff from Freelancer safehouse to be removed at some point for those who didn’t get the bundle and can’t achieve and get them.
Any comments on that @Combatglue ?
I want a butcher suit, seriously…
The worst part is that a team worked on this or that content and in the end it didn’t make it into the game, although players found it and want it to be in the game itself.
I remember how we thought that the butcher suit would be connected to the Deluxe Escalation in Berlin, but I’m glad that we got a deeper idea of the beginning of Agnet 47 as a patient escaping from the clinic.
There’s not many ETs left for them to rerun once the current one ends, so the roadmap might be a bit light on the ETs. I believe the only ones left in the normal rotation are:
The Serial Killer (wasn’t run earlier in the year in its usual spot in the lineup)
The Entertainer
The Badboy
The Food Critic
The Pharmacist
The Warlord
The Sensation
Yes, it will be a very similar looking roadmap to summer I would imagine.
We can expect the current FC submissions to feature presumably (I would guess the horror one will come out at Halloween).
Like @Lewisnic1 says we will likely get Halloween freelancer decorations too.
For wishlist items I always would like a Vampire Magician suit unlock, around Halloween seems fitting. And of course a ‘Halloween in Whittleton Creek’ mission but that won’t be happening (unless it’s for the CET where we can only access it the once and not use in contracts )
I can definitely see this happening now you put it like that
Looking at the Summer roadmap again, I believe that ends on 21st September, so I expect the Autumn/Fall roadmap to cover us throughout the remember of September and all of October. The Anniversary roadmap could be purely run throughout all of November, before the Winter roadmap covers us throughout Christmas and the New Year!
Makes sense that they would finally drop. We’ve got the Easter and Xmas ones now, so we just need the Halloween decorations to complete the set
Halloween themed set in Whittleton Creek has been requested for many years! Hopefully it happens one day!
Beyond the coop mode dropping (which is a topic in of itself)… My guess is there will be more twitch drop items, some new suits and gear that will be unlockable through challenges in maps, some stuff that is through paid ET celeb DLC that will also be included on the freelancer walls. One thing I wish to see is for each ET arcade to have their own unique unlock instead of banding some together for the same item, and for hantu port to have an unlock of its own since the other two sniper assassin levels do, and it wouldn’t hurt for them to add a few more. This would give more reason to play each.
I also suspect there will be some stuff tied in to the classic Hitman titles since they’re apparently being rereleased soonish, though this may not be until the winter roadmap.
I have a feeling we’ll get some more weapons for the new Freelancer weapon wall as I’ve noticed there’s a few gaps ready for new potential items
Well, when IOI dropped the image of the classic titles, it had the headline ‘2026’ under it, but I suspect we’ll potentially get more info around it come the 25th anniversary
in November.
