Well we finally got a Celebrity in the ETA! And a new ETA contract!

It’s kind of a shame ~~so much of this~~ all of this doesn’t start until later next month.

Initial year 4 thoughts:

The Revolutionary can eat a thousand bullets. Always spawning in random places and being fascist. I’ve never been able to successfully eliminate that man.

I do like how the Undying has a challenge pack associated with him now. I really missed doing those during H2016’s and H2’s run.

I still don’t know how Twitch drops work…

…but the duck is cute.

In all: Super grateful that this game is even getting updated. Looking forward to what’s to come 🎊

@Combatglue As some clarification, is the new Arcade contract being free-to-play a temporary thing? Its specifically mentioned as being free-to-play, but then also listed as being part of the Undying Pack…

Likely a Sarajevo Six-type situation than straight up greed. The pack, which is optional, is an attempt to recover costs to bring the content back.

</div>

The ETA contract is free for everyone, I don’t _think_ it’s a part of the DLC; at least, going off of IO’s wording on the blog.

 ![image](https://hitmanforum-v6-s3-uploads.s3.dualstack.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/original/3X/b/e/be08c6e151d17733f4e314508a8d140fb8a1fdd8.png)

Admittedly the roadmap does _ **not** _ make this obvious.

</div>

If I understand correctly, it’s three different content:

- the Arcade will be available to all, even free starter pack players
- the Elusive Target will be available to all _owning the game_ players
- the pack, cosmetics, and items will be a paid DLC

(but to be confirmed by @Combatglue)

Its also listed underneath that as being part of the DLC. Hence my post above tagging @Combatglue asking for clarification if the free-to-play on the Arcade is temporary.

I know they’re recouping costs, but they’re just like Paradox now, releasing more DLCs that aren’t included in the Deluxe Edition. They charge $100 for that stupid edition and these minuscule packs are missing. Then it’s not really ‘Deluxe’, is it? I can’t wait for them to remove Standard and Deluxe and have one version named ‘GOTY Edition’, it’ll be like HITMAN (2016) again 😂

The words “additionally” implies it is seperate.

It specifically says its included in the pack.

Ergo, the F2P _may_ be temporary.

Okay, yeah, I agree, the wording seems to be a bit odd here. We definitely need elaboration.

</div>

I’m leaning toward expecting the answer being yes as it says “Free Starter Pack players will have a **chance** to experience the Undying mission in The Oroborous”.

By the way, can you believe we’re finally getting a suit that actually looks like The Undying’s outfit? I don’t know what they were thinking with The Undying Look

</div>

Is there even a regular (aka eyepatchless) Ephemeral Suit in the game? I understand the need to make that suit stand out since it’s meant to be a paid one, but nonetheless I kinda dislike the eyepatch and wouldn’t be against putting 2 variants of the suit in this pack. Unless the plan is to hand the eyepatchless version out for participating in the ET the same way it was done with the Drop, but then it would probably be said already.

Are you confusing the word “Deluxe” with the word “Complete”?

Yeah, it does suck when they release a “All Content So Far” bundle with a fancy name, and then keep releasing more content after that, but ya get what you pay for, and that’s exactly what the bundle you bought gets you!

Yeah I’m betting – like with all Free Starter promotions – the Arcade will be free to play at the same time as the Elusive runs, but to access it permanently after the fact, buying the DLC is your ticket.

Potential buyers might confuse Deluxe with Complete, not me. That’s why I mentioned Paradox. EA might fall into this category as well since Sims 4 has a Deluxe DLC as well.

The Drop’s Greek Fire Suit wasn’t even announced in the roadmap for that month IIRC. It came as a complete surprise when you booted up the game and saw there was an extra suit that they didn’t mention. They can do the same here and surprise us with an eyepatch-less version of the Undying Suit, free for anyone who plays the ET, that didn’t get announced in the roadmap at all…
