Seán McLoughlin, best known as Jacksepticeye online, is a very busy man. He’s made a comic book, he has a coffee company, he is producing the animated Bloodborne film, and now, he’s getting killed by Agent 47 in a new Hitman update. The creator will be added into the game as an elusive target for free starting today. Players will have a chance to take him down until November 25, so you’ve got time to find creative ways to kill him.
He won’t be playing himself, however. Jacksepticeye is filling the shoes of a character that he describes as a “flanderized” version of content creators, particularly ones in the so-called manosphere. It seems like the character may pull a bit from controversial influencers like Jake Paul, Andrew Tate, and notable podcasters that have become divisive figures online. Ultimately, it makes for an interesting space for Agent 47 to operate in.
We got the chance to ask him about being in both Hitman and 007 First Light, how the Bloodborne movie is shaping up, and much more.
This interview has been lightly edited for length and clarity.
