‘Hitman’ hired to assassinate Conor McGregor and prevent next MMA fight in gruesome video game DLC

Take down Hitler in Wolfenstein 3D I felt pretty good.

Assassination of former UFC lightweight champion Conor McGregor, known as the “multi-billionaire MMA fighter” in new DLC “Disruptor” – part of the Hitman video game franchise — perhaps a little too macabre for my tastes. That said, it seems McGregor is up to the challenge, judging by the available sound bites.

Excerpt from the IO Interactive press release:

“Welcome to the season of The Disruptor! Global superstar Conor McGregor joins the world of assassination, as The Disruptor in an all-new Celebrity Elusive Target. You are tasked with traveling to the Isle of Sgàil to protect Quantum Leap CEO Tim Quinn from a humiliating defeat in the ring at the hands of The Disruptor. This mission will be free for everyone to play through the Free Starter Pack.

Michael Chandler may be the first to sign up.

“Iron” was scheduled to face McGregor at this weekend’s UFC 303 pay-per-view (PPV) event in Las Vegas; however, a broken pinky toe has delayed the fight until further notice. Chandler, 38, has not competed in a fight since his loss to Dustin Poirier in late 2022 and plans to continue his extended vacation until “Notorious” is ready to return.

The question is when and where this will happen.
