As we previously reported, the World of Assassination's latest Elusive Target mission is Patient Zero Requiem, featuring Milla Jovovich. There's only six days left to challenge her as of posting, and you can even do so for free via the demo on most platforms, excluding Switch and Switch 2. The mission is a ton of fun and goes somewhere you really don't expect, both in terms of gameplay and story. You can also purchase the Patient Zero Requiem DLC Pack for $4.99/€4.99/£3.99 to get permanent access to the mission and more.

The Elusive Target mission featuring Milla Jovovich is fast becoming a player favourite, delivering a high-stakes scenario that pushes Agent 47 to his limits. Player approaches have varied widely: over a third of operatives (34%) acted decisively to contain the threat using injectable cures, while 36% pursued a darker investigative lead by exhuming Alexa Carlisle. Speed and efficiency proved the best solution for many, with 23% successfully eliminating Lilith Devereux before the situation spiralled further. Meanwhile, meticulous planners were rewarded, 21% of players executed flawless runs to secure the coveted Silent Assassin rating.
