Snoop Dogg is coming to Hitman World of Assassination as The Dogg Father

A mock cookie commercial for Dr. Cane's Morsizzles ends with the tagline; IO did not say on stage whether he is an Elusive Target or something new.

Snoop Dogg is coming to Hitman World of Assassination. The Gamescom Opening Night Live 2026 segment was staged as an in-world commercial: a hooded man on a rain-soaked bus-stop bench under a poster for “Dr. Cane” cookies, Snoop’s face on the packaging, then a cut to a sun-blasted beach where Snoop, in a green tracksuit and sunglasses, hawks a “new” product called Morsizzles by Dr. Cane while a film crew shoots the ad.

The gag ends with Snoop biting into a cookie studded with pills and complaining about “these internet-ass DJs” and their “funky music”, before the tagline lands: “The Dogg Father, now coming to Hitman”.

Beyond that line, the segment did not say whether Snoop is an Elusive Target in the style of IO Interactive’s previous celebrity contracts, a playable character, or something else, and no date was given on stage.
