The Sensation is the fourth Elusive Target Mission in HITMAN™ and tasks you with eliminating Jonathan Smythe.
The Sensation[]
Diana Burnwood (VO): "Good afternoon 47. Your target is multi-platinum, media sensation, Jonathan Smythe. He is the subject of an international manhunt following his involvement in a multiple homicide three years ago.
He fled prosecution but continues to release records and maintains an extensive financial empire that has only been bolstered by the controversy.
We have learned that he will be hosting a private party somewhere in the palace grounds. This is the first opportunity to engage in over three years, so we must act immediately. Locating his party and bypassing security will be your primary challenge
The clock is ticking 47, Good Luck"― Mission Briefing
