Hitman World of Assassination is coming to iOS and table tops
Lallier also announced that Hitman is coming to table top. IO Interactive has teamed up with board game creator Mood Publishing to make Hitman the board game, which will be available for backing on Kickstarter later this year. The board game will feature the franchise's characters, iconic weapons and backdrops. Up to four players can play as assassins going after a single target, and the one who takes the target out will get the payout in the end.
In addition, the developer has revealed that Le Chiffre, the villain from the Bond film Casino Royale , will be the World of Assassination's new Elusive Target. Mads Mikkelsen, the actor who played Le Chiffre in the movie, provided the likeness and the voice for the new game character. You'll only have a limited time to go after Mikkelsen's character, as Hitman's Elusive Target missions only appear once, and you cannot attempt them again after they end. To note, IO Interactive recently revealed its James Bond game, 007 First Light , which will be coming out in 2026. If you play the Elusive Target mission with Le Chiffre, you can redeem an exclusive suit in 007 First Light when it becomes available.

This New App Lets You Take Private Audio Tours From Top Guides in Iconic European Destinations—and It's Free
A new app is giving travelers a private experience, allowing them to immerse themselves in new cities without breaking the bank. The app, called Le Walk, is a location-based experience using artificial intelligence to create riveting storytelling, all curated by local guides. The app, developed by a couple of former TikTok employees, is free to download on iOS and aimed at helping guides to scale their services. 'Le Walk is all about elevating travel," Aaron Sekhri, a co-founder of Le Walk, said in a statement shared with Travel + Leisure. "Our goal is to make the world's best guides accessible to every single traveler, regardless of cost, timing or language." The goal was to get travelers "looking up," instead of aimlessly scrolling on their phones, an ambition brought on by the founders' time at the social media company. Using the Le Walk app at the Musee d'Orsay in Paris. Le Walk When users log in, they will find on-demand audio walks where a professional tour guide will narrate directly into their headphones—without the hassle of having to be in a big group or struggling to hear the tour guide. Enjoy a guided visit to the Louvre's couture exhibition with the "Haute & Historical" tour, for example, or hang out with "Emily in Paris" on a walk through the popular show's iconic filming locations. And WWII buffs will find the "Is Paris Burning?" tour fascinating, which "reveals the still-present scars of Nazi occupation along with gripping stories of resistance, betrayal and survival." Overall, tours are available in a variety of subjects from art tours to architecture, history, culinary-focused jaunts (think: viral TikTok butter), and more. The app is currently available to use for tours in Paris, Rome, and Florence, according to the company, with plans to expand to more than two dozen more cities by summer 2026. Tours are offered in 22 different languages. Tours typically last just under an hour and customers seem to be happy: Le Walk said 63 percent of travelers who have tried it participate in multiple tours. So far, the company said it has seen more than 75,000 downloads. Of course—as the saying goes—Paris is never a bad idea, and a trip to the city isn't complete without indulging in good French cheese, hunting for vintage goods at an antique market, and people-watching at one of the outdoor cafes. And the same goes for Le Walk's other Italian cities where you can sample gelato, wrap yourself in history, and eat your weight in pasta.
