Landslide is a bonus mission in the World of Assassination trilogy, in which Agent 47 is tasked with eliminating Marco Abiatti.
Landslide[]
Our client, the renowned bioengineer Silvio Caruso, sees Abiatti as a threat, not just to his ancestral town, but the entire country, and he has asked us to dispose of this would-be patrician.
I will leave you to prepare."
MISSION STATUS ACTIVE
Description[]
Agent 47 has travelled to Sapienza, where wealthy businessman Marco Abiatti is currently campaigning to become the town's mayor. Beneath his friendly facade, Abiatti is in reality a callous gangster with ties to organised crime, and more concerned with turning Sapienza into a playground for the rich and famous than looking after its townspeople.
Fearing for the future of his beloved hometown, (and seeking revenge for the bullying Abiatti inflicted on him as a child) Silvio Caruso has contracted 47 to eliminate Abiatti for good.
Mission Stories[]
Dynamite Smile
You can say what you want about Abiatti, but he knows how to sell himself. The Sapienza sunset is known to be one of the most beautiful sunsets in all of Italy and a perfect photo opportunity for Abiatti. Maybe you can fire it up little more.
Cheat Sheet
It is not uncommon practice for a politician to have cameras installed to get the help of a so-called "third eye," someone who can feed them names and information on important individuals, in case they forget who they are. Maybe it's time to have a little fun with our charismatic charlatan and see where it could lead us.
No Absolution for the Wicked
According to the church staff, Marco Abiatti wants to meet with local priest Father Francesco, a highly respected member of the Sapienza community. But Francesco is trying his best to dodge him. In fact, the priest has spoken out harshly against Abiatti on several public occasions. I wouldn't mind being a fly on the wall when those two exchange blows.
Stage Fried
Abiatti, eager to play man of the people, is throwing a political rally for Sapienza's young. Panem et circenses. Though it might seem lavish, Abiatti knows where to cut costs so no one will notice, and has therefore hired his nephew's company to set up the stage. It's a company with a checkered past, so I'm sure safety is not on the top of their list.
Above the Law
Salvatore Bravuomo, a local attorney, has allegedly gotten his hands on evidence that could sink Abiatti's political career. Abiatti, a firm believer that all men can be bought, wants to meet this Bravuomo face-to-face. The attorney, however, was not born yesterday and has wisely gone into hiding.

Trivia[]
- Curiously, the date on Marco Abiatti’s assistant’s planner indicates that this mission takes place on May 31st, 2019, while the banners around town promote the festival as spanning from August 5th to the 7th.
- This is the only HITMAN™ Bonus Mission without an Elusive Target (i.e. The Icon's The Badboy & A House Built on Sand's The Entertainer). There was originally one planned for the mission called The Author, but due to Square Enix severing ties with IO Interactive in 2017 and the funding subsequently lost, it was re-purposed as a fully-fledged mission of the same name in the Patient Zero campaign, as part of the GOTY Edition of HITMAN™; however, it was greatly altered.
