Hey folks. Came across this information while browsing Hitmanforum, and I think this is the first time the amount of content has actually been numbered off. IO has been silent for it, but Amazon, strangely enough, may have outed how many stages launch with the game. It also outs the beta test dates for PS4 being 10/31/15 - 11/2/15 for the first test, and 12/4/15 - 12/6/15 for the second. IO said the beta tests for PC happen a week after the PS4 test, but I guess that would apply to both tests, as there will be two betas. The only odd thing is the release date, but I imagine Amazon is considering the physical release, which will only happen after all of the content they're planning is out.
Remember, the game is $60 and you get everything planned for the game, as they have no plans for any paid DLC. This model of seasons may be how they put out the game in chunks, which I believe Killer Instinct may have done. No idea if they charged for updates, but IO has said countless times they will not.
For the amount of levels, I am surprised. I was originally expecting four missions, but seven gives us a lot of content if it's to by anything the alpha level had. People put hours into that stage and still didn't do everything, so if they keep the volume of the fashion show level, we might be getting a big title even if the stage number is relatively small when compared to previous Hitman games.
