McGregor appeared in Hitman: World of ************** as part of the Elusive Target mission, The Disrupter, which features his voice work and likeness. The DLC made a return to the title earlier this month as a part of the Free Starter Pack for new gamers and Elusive Target for old players.

On Friday, an Irish High Court jury discovered that McGregor had assaulted and ****** Nikita Hand back in 2018. The MMA fighter has been instructed by authorities to pay damages of €248,000 (approx $260,500). Due to the fact that it’s a civil case and not a ********* one, the MMA figure won’t be criminally liable and will face any convictions.

Even though the DLC isn’t being sold anymore, gamers who’ve purchased it should be able to access all the content. It’s unknown if IO will offer refunds for outright deleting the content from people’s accounts or if it plans to re-release it after the situation changes.

, IO Interactive is currently focused on polishing the game. The developer needs extra time to refine the game and bring additional features such as an active reloading system, which has been demanded since day one of release.

The best part is that with this game’s release on PS VR2, players will be able to experience the entire World of ************** campaign. This means all the 20 dropping locations, from the sunny streets of Miami to the skyscrapers of Dubai. It would truly be a mind-boggling release once it happens.

With that said, do you think IO Interactive has made the right move by removing McGregor from World of **************? Let us know in the comments below.
