The Mystery of the Unicorns challenge in Hitman World of Assassination is fairly simple to complete, provided you have good map knowledge. Without it, you'll struggle, which will make any Silent Assassin attempt even more difficult. Developer IO Interactive added the Mystery of the Unicorns challenge to Hitman World of Assassination as part of the game's Summer 2024 update. It gives you a new reason to revisit Dartmoor, though not as you might first think. Instead, this challenge is firmly locked to The Dartmoor Garden Show mission. This is the game's only main Escalation Mission type, which is a staple part of the story and not a smaller chunk of a standard location because it contains a completely revamped version of the main map. How to complete the Mystery of the Unicorns challenge in Hitman: World of Assassination Below, I've explained how to complete the Mystery of the Unicorns challenge in Hitman World of Assassination in easy-to-follow steps. Read through to find the point that you're struggling with and see exactly what you need to do to progress. Note that this is my method for completing the challenge, but everything else is flexible as long as you hit the main requirements. Step 1: Find a unicorn horn Screenshot by Destructoid Your first job is to find a unicorn horn in The Dartmoor Garden Show location. The unicorn horns from the main Dartmoor location have been altered slightly, so you can't rely purely on that map knowledge. The easiest unicorn horn to find is to the left of the garden show's main entrance. See below for a map reference for this item.

Step 2: Kill a target Screenshot by Destructoid The Dartmoor Garden Show randomly assigns targets for every level, so it's difficult to give you direction on how best to use the unicorn horn to complete the Mystery of the Unicorns challenge. However, what is always the same is that the first level of the Escalation Mission always has one target to kill and one to keep alive. To complete this challenge, I simply found my target, killed them with a thrown attack using the unicorn horn, and then ran to an exit on the lawn. This is by far the best way to complete the challenge quickly because it gets you in and out without much fuss. You don't have to complete a Silent Assassin run for the challenge, so why not complete it first and then do that purist run? Screenshot by Destructoid once you've exited the mission and have completed the Mystery of the Unicorns challenge in Hitman World of Assassination, you'll gain points for your profile and the Unicorn Horn melee item for all your loadouts in future missions.
