It's time for Sean Bean to die again.

As promised, the first Elusive Target for Hitman 2 is finally live today. Hollywood has killed him around 25 times, so now it's actor Sean Bean's turn to take his place as one of the series' celebrity Elusive Targets.

Of course, you won't be killing Sean Bean, the actor. Instead, you're attempting to take out Mark Faba, a former MI5 agent who is now a freelance assassination. Faba is known as "The Undying" because he tends to fake his own death. It's time for Agent 47 to make it permanent in Miami.

Like Elusive Targets from the first season of Hitman, you can only take a shot at Faba for a limited time. And if you miss, the target is gone and cannot be tried again. Faba will be available until December 4; killing him also unlocks the new Explosive Pen weapon.

Hitman 2 is currently available on PC, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4.

M.H. Williams is new to the journalism game, but he's been a gamer since the NES first graced American shores. Third-person action-adventure games are his personal poison: Uncharted, Infamous, and Assassin's Creed just to name a few. If you see him around a convention, he's not hard to spot: Black guy, glasses, and a tie.
