An upcoming crossover mission in MindsEye that was set to deliver Agent 47 of the Hitman franchise to the sport this summer time has been delayed till a “later date” as developer Construct A Rocket Boy continues to attempt to salvage what has turn into the worst-reviewed sport of 2025.
MindsEye has been a little bit of a catastrophe since launching in June. The semi-open-world third-person motion sport from longtime Grand Theft Auto producer Lezlie Benzies got here out of the gate in a damaged state with poor efficiency and tons of bugs. Opinions weren’t nice and the studio’s future is unsure. Since its launch, the sport has acquired a couple of updates fixing a number of the points and bettering some facets of MindsEye. However numerous work continues to be wanted, one thing the studio acknowledged in a neighborhood replace saying the delayed Hitman mission and future patches.
On July 25, an official consultant of Construct A Rocket Boy posted an replace on Reddit about MindsEye’s future. The unhealthy information is {that a} deliberate crossover mission that includes Agent 47, which was teased earlier than MindsEye’s launch, has now been delayed.
“We apologise that the discharge of the Hitman x MindsEye Mission, initially scheduled for July, has been postponed to a later date,” stated the Construct A Rocket Boy spokesperson. “We stay up for delivering this thrilling crossover when the time is correct and can present additional updates as quickly as we’re in a position.”
The entire cause Agent 47 was going to point out up in MindsEye is that the sport was printed by Hitman studio IO Interactive, so it was a bit of name synergy. However now, it appears the crew behind MindsEye is extra centered on getting the sport fastened up and improved earlier than including any new content material.
Construct A Rocket Boy laid out two updates, one coming in August and one arriving in September, that can deliver “further efficiency enhancements, bug fixes,” and community-requested options. This consists of the choice to skip cutscenes, in addition to user-published missions being “immediately accessible” on PC.
The studio did warn that shifting ahead, future updates is perhaps much less frequent, however the plan is to make them greater and extra substantial and to incorporate extra fixes. Whereas this plan is sensible and it’s cheap for the devs to deal with bettering the sport as an alternative of including a enjoyable crossover mission, I can’t think about anybody concerned with MindsEye hoped to be on this horrible scenario post-launch.
