Iām really looking forward to the Co-Op.
Curious if there are gameplay differences between the two compared to 47, seeing as heās the master of blending in. Iām torn because while Iād want them to be different narratively it might be a big ask, and a little alienating, to change core systems.
Also I do hope the missions are different. Iāve played what weāve got thoroughly, plus I think they should craft a means to justify co-op more than just āthere are two players nowā.
If theyāre bringing matchmaking servers back, might as well include the Sniper Assassin multiplayer and maybe Ghost Mode too, why not?

Regarding Freelancer and ET, they are canon, however, we are essentially supposed to ignore the presence of the campaign targets and the actual location, to an extent. For example, 47 does pursue criminal syndicates following the Hitman III epilogue, however, they obviously all donāt get eliminated at the same location at Ambrose Island and Sapienza for example.

āDoes not include legacy titlesā
Ah yes I am glad the exact nature is still a mystery.

I have a strange feeling that Codename 47, Silent Assassin and Contracts coming next year will be the Reprisal version for IOS and Android etc. It makes me think that will be the case given Codename 47 was always PC

If thatās the kind of lame ass thing they decide to go for, talk about a waste.

I might be totally wrong, but Iām leaning more towards that idea due to Codename 47.
Why not Grey and 47 for co-op mode? And Diana? Who cares about Knight and whatever the other persons name was

Because itās probably just gonna be the return of sniper co-op.
Honestly while Grey would be a good fit I donāt think Diana has the kind of training required for field operations, sheās a handler not an assassin (like we can see her kill Yates but thatās a rare occurence of her getting her hands dirty and itās completely unplanned).
Itās true that Knight and Stone are barely developed characters though.

I donāt get it. What is it? A cd case? A case with download codes for all these games?
Is it console or is it for pc?

Asuming, you can play through the whole story in coop, Diana and Grey are there for the intel. It wouldnāt make any sense playing as Diana AND have her voiceover in the ear explaining the mission and people in it. Grey not so much, but he has that role too in some missions.
I have a question about the twitch drop for the showcase duck. In the post there is a mention, that you can get it on there when someone going live and the stream is tagged as #IOIPartner, but I canāt find one over there.
What are the chances that a live stream on there will be tagged as such?
Iām probably gonna leave the fandom if thatās the case.
Honestly i would have left years ago, if it wasnāt for the HMF Community

Yeah that was really really weird.
They started the showcase with a montage of the Old Hitman Games, tracking their years of release. So I assumed this meant it was about to reveal some Legacy Collection for the games, since they still arenāt playable on modern consoles.
But then it cut to Absolution, WOA, and, yeah, just a celebration montage.
And yetā¦ zero time alloted to talk about that middle classics card? Iām hoping for a collection, but the complete lack of info on that has me worried. (For MrOchoaās sakeā¦)

It is nice for IOI to finally host a show that is not organized by someone else. Their own showcase where they can fully display their stuff without any limitations 
Definitely lots of interesting stuff on that night:
ā¢ 007 First Light, surely the ālightā of the show indeed 
As said in the dedicated topic, thereās definitely potential for a great James Bond game, if not the best of them all so far
ā¢ 25 Years of Hitman coming this fall 
This fall marks a huge milestone for the Hitman franchise: 25 years!
This is an incredible achievement for the developers but also all the fans
Maybe something will happen to mark this anniversary? 
ā¢ HITMAN āStone & Knightā CO-OP mode 
Contrary to Ghost Mode, a co-op mode in HITMAN is a great way to use multiplayer features 
Huge potential to play as a team through all WoA maps 
ā¢ Classic Hitman trilogy being remastered 
Been requested since YEARS, are the first three games finally being refined and remastered for next-gen consoles and PCs? That would be awesome indeed 
ā¢ āLe Chiffreā Elusive Target 
Another good surprise of this showcase: Mads Mikkelsen as Le Chiffre in HITMAN 
A great idea for sure. Interesting mission and target in perspective
ā¢ HITMAN playable on mobiles 
Say whaaaat? First the Nintendo switch, now mobiles?
This is indeed a nice achievement right there 
ā¢ IOI Partnership: Mindseye
Mindseye might not be on my priority list, but it should be definitely taken into consideration, knowing it was made and produced by some guys from Rockstar Games (Grand Theft Auto, anyone?)
Thank you guys for that showcase 
Looking forward to more informations/updates about all that stuff
Cheers!

God, yes! Didnāt even think of this. I would just love to play as Grey. I would be so much more hyped if it was 47 and Grey.
I imagine that they went with the (forgettable) Sniper Challenge characters because ā47 works aloneā. This is something IO repeated around the release of the Co-op in Sniper Challenge too.
At least give us the option to choose Grey as well - that would just make this mode infinitely more exciting.

I am sure someone on PC will make a mod to swap characters. I am getting into modding and it seems easier than I anticipated. I wonder if they have some voice lines for these characters that werenāt used or some other type of content tied to them. I know that gameās code have presets for āheroesā 2 and 3, where 47 is hero 1. Maybe they have some cut content that never ended in release version. That wouldāve been a fun mode if you could select a character youāre playing: 47, Grey, Stone, Knight, maybe some ICA agents from Berlin mission. Afaik thatās just a head swap if they donāt have voice lines for interactions with NPCs. If these missions are happening before the main story, that is all viable
