A Twitch streamer found herself being thrown out of her game ofHitman World of Assassinationthanks to an untimely intervention from her cat. Originally released asHitman 3in 2021 and rebranded toHitman World of Assassinationwith a recent update this year, the established stealth game introduced rouge-like elements under the new Freelancer Mode.
This new mode mixes up the established stealth genre as players are tasked with not only taking down specific targets but are given more freedom on how a target is approached. There are randomized elements throughout each mission in this mode, which means gamers have to be even more strategic when carrying out Agent 47’s eliminations. Developer IO Interactive has confirmed thatthe Hitman series is going on a long hiatusfollowing the release of the latest update, so players are making the most of the additional content.

Momo the cat, who belongs to Twitch streamer Stormfall33 certainly had other ideas onhow to approach the new missions found inHitman: World of Assassination. After two and a half hours on camera, Stormfall33 took a break from the difficult mode to read some of her chat messages when her cat nonchalantly strode across the keyboard, hitting the escape and enter buttons in succession, resulting in the game cutting back to the main menu.
The streamer was seemingly shocked for a few moments before exclaiming to viewers that her pet had managed to hit both the keyboard with almost pinpoint accuracy. While Momo did get a verbal haranguing for the incident, it blew over quickly and the Twitch stream was restarted. Stormfall33 was keen to show her pet curled up in its bed next to her setup as she continued with her game.
Animals, particularly cats, causing interruptions to players’ streams might not be an everyday occurrence, but when it does happen, the community often finds it hilarious. One video catches the moment aTwitch streamer’s equipment gets knocked over by his catjust before going live on the platform.
Not all animal interruptions are pleasant. The high-profile streamerAlinity previously appeared on CodeMiko’s streamto talk about a lengthy ban from the Amazon platform after appearing to throw her cat during a stressful session ofApex Legends. This is a far cry from the tongue-in-cheek exchange between Momo and Stormfall33, which was quickly forgotten as she started her next attempt with Agent 47’s toughest mission to date.
Hitman: World of Assassinationis available now on PC, PS4, PS5, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
