Eminem hires Agent 47 to assassinate Slim Shady in a new Hitman update.

On November 20, during Xbox’s Partner Preview showcase, IO Interactive announced that Eminem would be the next elusive target coming to Hitman: World of Assassination in a free update arriving next month on all platforms.

Here’s the strange trailer, which shows Eminem teaming up with Agent 47 to take out his alter ego, Slim Shady, who is hanging out in a strange medical facility in Japan.

The new Elusive Target mission shares a theme with Eminem’s most recent studio release, The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grâce). That 2024 concept album saw the rapid-fire rapper battling against his younger alter ego and featured cover art that depicted Slim Shady in a partially unzipped body bag.

Elusive Targets in the Hitman series offer limited-time and limited-opportunity missions to kill specific subjects, and many involve celebrity cameos. In addition to Eminem/Slim Shady, Elusive Targets have included actors Sean Bean, Gary Busey, and Jean-Claude Van Damme, and mixed martial artist Conor McGregor. Those real-world people typically play amplified versions of their real-world personas.

Hitman World of Assassination is available on just about everything, including Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 5, Windows PC, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X. The Eminem vs. Slim Shady Elusive Target arrives Dec. 1 and runs through Dec. 31.

In the trailer, Eminem narrates: “I don’t usually ask for help. But this isn’t just another target! It’s the crazy part of me. I gave him life. Now he wants mine. I’ve tried to burry him but this motherf–ker just keeps coming back.”
