Recently, Hitman's game developer, IO Interactive decided to speak with GameSpot and according to their lead writer Michael Vogt - "The story is just getting started" after season 1 of Hitman. From the previous interviews, the developer announced its plan for Hitman on Xbox One, PS4 and PC and stated that they wanted Hitman to have three seasons overall.

In his recent interview, Vogt talked about their ambition about the storyline.

"We wanted to do a really ambitious story line that would span several seasons and also build this ensemble cast,"

 "In the old games, the targets were always the most interesting characters, but then you'd just kill them off instantly and move on to the next one. And now, we wanted to build a much bigger main cast that will survive for much longer."

After Hitman's season 1, Vogt explained that the story is just about to start now that the first season has ended and all the characters, stakes, and dilemmas are slightly introduced.  

The story's really only beginning [with the first season], Season 1 is the first act in a feature film. You know all the characters, you know the stakes, you know the dilemma, but it's only getting started."

"You're supposed to feel what it's like to be Agent 47," Vogt added. "You're the best assassin in the world; you're travelling the globe and killing the elite and all that and kinda feeling what it's like for Agent 47 on a Tuesday."

"The prologue, which takes place in the past, is definitely on the main story, and then the main story fades into the background and just plays out in the cutscenes where we introduce the main characters... and then towards the end [of Season 1] we merge it again. Colorado is this merging point, where from now on and going forward, the missions and the main story are fully integrated."

The "Freedom Fighters", Hitman's latest episode that was released only a few weeks ago is said to be one of "the toughest assignment yet" the setting of the episode is in Colorado and the season finale's setting will be in Japan.
