Snoop Dogg has officially entered the“Hitman”universe, and he’s not just a background character. He’s the main target. As Dr. Cyrus Cane, an eccentric entrepreneur with a deadly cookie product called Morsizzles, Snoop is the latest Elusive Target in“Hitman: World of Assassination.”The mission,“The Herbalist,”runs from August 27 to September 26 on Haven Island, giving players a limited window to take him out.
What makes this even cooler is that Snoop’s son, Cordell C. Broadus, is making his video game debut alongside his dad. It’s their first time appearing together in a game, and Snoop is clearly proud of the collaboration.“It’s definitely an honor to step into a franchise as legendary as Hitman,”he said, adding that bringing his son along for the ride is“awesome.”
This crossover is a big deal for both music fans and gamers. Celebrity appearances in video games are becoming more common, but having a star like Snoop as a full-fledged villain character with his own mission and voice work is next level. Whether you’re a“Hitman”player or just a Snoop fan, this is one of those moments where pop culture and gaming collide in the best way possible. Would you be able to take down Dr. Cyrus Cane, or would you let the Doggfather win?
