This could be the weirdest or the greatest piece of marketing for IO Interactive’s Hitman. It seems that the next location of the episodic game will take place in Thailand and we got that information from a band’s music video, out of all things.
The band is called The Class and is apparently a fake band that Square Enix created for the location reveal trailer. However, the music video they released is anything but fake.
At first glance, the trailer looks like a legitimate music video, but take a closer look and you’ll notice that it’s actually the in-game location. Plus, one bald-headed assassin makes an appearance in the video as well, which should totally give away the trailer.
We have to give Square Enix’s marketing credit for a very unorthodox way for revealing a piece of content and it helps that the song is quite catchy as well.
Check out the music video/trailer below:
Hitman: Episode 1 was launched on March 11 and is available for Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC. The Thailand location is expected to release soon.
