Hitman World of Assassination’s Next Elusive Target is Snoop Dogg

Io Interactive has updated Hitman World of Assassination with a new Elusive Target, The Herbalist, featuring the likeness and voice of Snoop Dogg.

This is a free mission for a limited time from August 27 to September 26, 2026.

It’s great to see IO Interactive continuing to support Hitman World of Assassination with new Elusive Targets, especially ones with entertaining twists like this. Yes, you can pretty much assassinate Snoop Dogg in the game, and likely in more ways than one, too.

In The Herbalist, Agent 47 is tasked with eliminating Dr. Cyrus Cane, an eccentric entrepreneur preparing to launch his new cookie brand, Morsizzles. To stop the launch, Cane must be permanently removed and the product must disappear.

Cane is hosting a pre-launch party, giving Agent 47 the perfect opportunity to infiltrate the event and do what he does best.

This marks the first time Snoop Dogg has been featured in the Hitman franchise. He is also joined by his son, Cordell C. Broadus, who appears as a party guest in the game.

Season of the Herbalist Roadmap

Alongside the release of the new Elusive Target, IO Interactive revealed the game’s new roadmap for the Season of the Herbalist, which includes new and returning content.

The roadmap features two new challenges, new Featured Contracts, Twitch Drops, returning Elusive Targets such as The Undying Returns, and new IOI Account rewards.
