The Drop

With global superpowers vying for control, one legendary agent is deployed to rebalance (or perhaps disrupt) the scales of power. Agent 47 returns to the world of assassination in Hitman on PS4, which begins its episodic launch this week.

In Hitman, players control the iconic assassin as he completes covert operations around the world. Players can use a variety of tools and weaponry to accomplish their objectives with total discretion or… otherwise. With more locations coming later this year, fans of stealth gameplay have plenty to look forward to.

Also launching this week is the hotly anticipated Tom Clancy’s The Division on PS4. Explore the devastated remains of a post-pandemic New York City as a highly-trained agent. Modify and level up equipment, find new weapons, and fight to reclaim the city from the clutches of chaos.

For a full list of new games coming to PlayStation this week, read on. And enjoy the Drop!
