Hitman 2's Farcical Homing Briefcase Is Now an Official Weapon

A bug from Hitman 2 that turned Agent 47's briefcase into a homing missile has been anointed as an official weapon in an upcoming content drop.

The ICA Executive Briefcase MKII will be available as a reward from August 8 for players who complete the Best Case Scenario Challenge Pack. If you have access to the Sgail map, the pack is free.
