I only own Hitman 2 (gifted) not 3, so I don't have a full grasp of what the content was, but apparently he was a limited time Elusive Target at some point in the past. Which surely means they could have just kept their mouths shut and never featured him again and it would amount to exactly the same thing, unless it also means deleting the content for those people who still have it. Maybe a Hitman 3 owner could clarify.
For those who don't know about the rape case, some interesting facts:
it was tried in civil court and there will not be a criminal case, because the director of prosecutions says there is little chance of a conviction
McGregor was one of 2 men accused. The other was cleared. So apparently if you Believe All Women 50% of the time, there are no contradictions and no implications for the woman's general credibility.
this all comes off the back of McGregor emerging as a dissident political voice in Ireland, so I'm sure it's a very true and real accusation just like it was for Russell Brand and Julian Assange.
If he's a target then...you're killing him. So you're killing the guy you don't like. Isn't that good?
It's like the castle level in Hitman 2 where you kill the two annoying black sisters. I love that level because the objective is to kill the annoying people.
Or the Elusive Target in Hitman 1 where you kill Harry and Marv from Home Alone. They're bad guys; you're killing them. This is supposed to be a good thing.

Funnily enough, the McGregor Elusive Target is on this level too.
