Welp, that’s about as subtle as a proximity mine in the middle of the Marrakesh market.
I’m not a bookie, but I don’t think a betting shop would accept your wager if you wanted to bet money on IOI having McGregor as their next ET.

ETs usually drop on… Is it Thursdays or Fridays? 
14th to 21st is what I give it. More drops might have these colors. 
Or maybe already did.
Well, I have to give credit to IOI.
In the demographic of UFC/MMA fans, I can definitely see them picking up a video game where you are presented with a wide array of violent means to take people out, so I reckon this is a decent strategy.

It certainly looks like the jigsaw is coming together, nicely spotted 
That definitely looks like the WOA back cover

At this point we could confirm that he will be in the game.

lol. I bet IO was watching this place like a hawk when that post went out a week ago and were probably starting to think that they had gotten away with it.

Since his “acting debut” in the (remake?) of Road House (on Amazon) he starred as a character named Knox. But seeing as we’ve already had a target with the surname of Knox… I wonder what his fictional hitman universe celebrET name will be?
As for his part in that movie… I kinda think he was given free rein over what to do instead of (the mere thought of) taking direction. Because almost everything he did in it was Over. The. Top. 
Then again, Gary Busey, I assume, was free to do whatever. Take for instance any of his ridiculous lines.
As much as I was kinda hoping it wouldn’t be him - eh… Alright. I hope it’ll at least be fun. I’m not angry that he’s in it.

I pity the… oh, fuck it, that fruit is way too low-hanging.
My gut is telling me Mike Tyson or Connor McGregor or maybe Ronda Rousey.
I really hope there are some new mechanics introduced that enable 47 to actually engage with this “world famous fighter”. The Rage was a fighter too and fighting him was, let’s say, less than impressive. If they’re going to introduce a fighting ring and a fighter to go with it, seems a shame to just shoot him with a pistol and walk off the map.

As long, as it’s not the lame QTEs 47 fights with now, I would be up for it. But I don’t think, that they’ll add any complete new mechanics to the game. Especially not for just one mission that can be played for a limited time only. Would be cool, but I doubt it.

Oh, I know, and I agree that it’s not only unlikely, but would be a waste of effort to create a mechanic like that which is used only one time per player, but it would be neat to see regardless.

I’m 90% sure it’s Connor McGregor after we saw that photo of him recording what appeared to be voice lines

You’re forgetting the best one: him holding the Hitman WoA disc case

Wouldn’t it be crazy good if the ET was connected to the Rage? They were supposed to meet but the Rage met his fate before anything happened etc. The only plausible location for such ET is once again Berlin, the dancefloor fits perfectly for a fighting cage which is a bit of a letdown if you think about it.
In any case i’m hyped 200% whoever it is. June is getting closer.

We should be be getting a roadmap for the rest of the year at the same time, right? The current one ends in June I think.

The last content release of the current roadmap is May 31st.
Next roadmap certainly won’t be for the rest of the year.
Depending on how IOI wants to do it it will either be like The Drop and a “classic” one month Roadmap, or the now normal seasonal/three months roadmap.
I would say a celebrity named one month roadmap for June, then a summer roadmap in July.
The celebrity ET is supposed to be for Spring, so before June 21st. It will certainly run for the whole month.
Could even be partially concurrent to the next ET, the Liability (May 31th to June 10th)
It’s what happened with the Drop.
We also are in an empty week, so the game will have no live content on the 27th to 30th of May,
In addition the ET countdowns in the career tab are all done.
So we might have some in-game informations rolling in during those days. At least for the Liability.
