Announced at the IOI Showcase, a Hitman board game is to hit Kickstarter and is made by Mood. They’ve done a Goat Simulator card game and a Deep Rock Galatic board game in the past. The Kickstarter isn’t live yet, but hopefully shouldn’t be too long until it is active.
I’m making this thread for those who may be interested. I actually am a big fan of board games, and the pitch for this does interest me. You can notify your interest on Kickstarter so you know when it launches.
“In this 1–4 player competitive board game, players take on high-profile contracts across the globe. Each mission is a sandbox of opportunity: hidden weapons, vulnerable patrols, and exploitable routines. But while the target may be predictable, your rivals are not. Only the most skilled assassin walks away with the payout.”
With what they showed in the trailer, I’m hoping that the base game is relatively affordable, but they offer optional extras. Like, the cardboard standees are fine, but I’d love for 47 and the other agents to get proper playing pieces. A nice little 47 game piece would be great and a nice way to make the game feel more premium.
I would prefer stretch goals, such as piece upgrades like the ones you mention, rather than reward tiers for stuff like that.
I hope that the base game is reasonably priced, and maybe a couple of expansions that are affordable. I’ve seen some where the expansions more than double the price.
I’ve been an avid board game enthusiast for years, so I always thought about a Hitman board game, but I never expected it would actually be released. Although, considering how the board game market has recently been flooded with video game adaptations, it was almost certain - but I still can’t quite believe it!
