Hitman World Of Assassination is the dramatic conclusion to the World of Assassination trilogy, taking players around the world on a globetrotting adventure to sprawling sandbox locations, with Agent 47 returning for the most important contracts of his career.

Supported by his Agency handler, Diana Burnwood, Agent 47 joins forces with his long-lost friend Lucas Grey. Their ultimate mission is to eliminate the partners of Providence, but they are forced to adapt as their hunt intensifies. When the dust settles, 47 and the world he inhabits will never be the same again.

Featuring six meticulously detailed locations packed full of creative opportunities, Hitman III gives players the unrivaled freedom to complete their objectives in a game world that reacts to everything they do. All of this is made possible by IOI’s award-winning Glacier technology, which powers Hitman III’s immersive game world to offer unparalleled player choice and replayability.

Hitman III players can import locations from the previous games in the trilogy and have more than 20+ locations under one roof. All of the improvements to rendering, animation and AI introduced with Hitman III can be enjoyed across all three games, making Hitman III the ultimate place to play the entire World of Assassination trilogy.


Hitman III Year 2 November Roadmap 2022.

November has arrived and with it comes the HITMAN 3 November Roadmap. Winter is coming (for the northern hemisphere at least) so now is the perfect time to stay indoors and play some Hitman.

This month you’ll find 4 new unlocks, a new Escalation, fables and more. Let’s take a closer look at what’s to come this November in Hitman III.

November 3: Elusive Target Arcade

On November 3 we’ve got a new exploding unlock coming your way with November’s first Elusive Target Arcade! Complete one of the two new Arcades and you’ll unlock A vial of nitroglycerin.

Highly explosive, even in small doses.

November 10: New Escalation The Halliwell Fable

Once upon a time there was an old mother pig who had three little pigs and not enough food to feed them. So when they were old enough, she sent them out into the world to seek their fortunes… 

Have you ever wondered how the Three Little Pigs would look in the Hitman universe? Well now’s your chance. The Halliwell Fable is the three little pigs Hitman III style. Complete this completely new escalation set in Berlin, and you’ll unlock the Big Bad Wolf.

Be the predator in the open light, with this elegant dark suit, blue striped tie, white gloves and the “pièce de resistance” – a sturdy dark wolf mask. An outfit that will not only make you seem dangerous and mysterious, but elegant as well.

November 10: New Challenge “Been there done that”

November 10 brings more new swagger for you to wear.  Been there done that is a New Challenge on the Dartmoor Garden show.

Complete it and you’ll unlock the Florida Fit With gloves. A smart casual outfit featuring a light polo shirt with blue trim and tailored pants. Matching leather loafers and stylish gloves complete the look.

November 17: Elusive Target Arcade

The Second batch of Elusive Target Arcade in November also brings an exploding factor. 

The Ancestral Fountain pen can be yours, when you complete one of the ETAs. This pen is ideal for throwing, signing a lease or blowing up your arch nemesis.

November 17: Location Rotation: A House Built on Sand.

Return to Marrakesh in the dark of night and experience one of the ‘bonus missions’ from HITMAN 1 for a limited time in the location rotation. With new targets to eliminate and challenges to complete, this reworked version of Marrakesh promises fresh experiences and new fortunes.

November 18: Eulusive Target The Accentionist (Year 2 Edition)

On November 18 it’s time to travel back to Dubai and Track down the perfect con artist, who will do anything to climb the social ladder. The Accentionist has swindled and killed her way to Dubai and this is where you come in.

She’ll be visiting the Burj Al Ghazali for 10 days staring November 18.

November 24: Featured Contracts.

Once upon a time…

What is the perfect Hitman fable? Well, now you have the scene to create one. On November 24 we’ll feature 6 contracts created by the community. The theme is Fribilous Fables, and we task you the creators to come up with the perfect Hitman Fable.

How to get your Contract Featured: It can be based on a super creative briefing, a cool idea or just a plain fun contract. But bear in mind: They have to be inspired by Fribilous Fables to be taken into consideration.

Time to find your inner writer. The Submissions open on November 4 – right here: hitmanforum

November 25: Elusive Target The Entertainer (Year 2 Edition) 

MR GIGGLES IS BACK!

Mr Giggles was the final Elusive Target in HITMAN 1 and he’s back on the streets for another round. Your objectives: Eliminate him and retrieve his client list. Simple. He’ll be roaming the dimly-lit streets of Marrakesh by night for 10 days starting Novemvber 25.

Hitman III: Freelancer Closed Technical Test.

November will also feature the Closed Technical Test of Hitman III: Freelancer. 

If you want to know more about how to participate then read more here.

Hitman III’s sandbox locations give you complete freedom to approach your objectives in any way you want. As well as the new multi-function camera, you’ll also be able to interact with the game world in new ways to access new opportunities and paths through each level. Want to organize a meeting with your target? Check. How about opening elevator doors to access a new route? You can do that too and so much more.

As you explore each mission and complete challenges, you’ll rise through 20 Mastery tracks that will unlock new tools, weapons and even Starting Locations that will let you begin your next playthrough with a big advantage – possibly even in a disguise. All of the items and weapons that you unlock in a Mastery track are added to your permanent inventory, so you’ll be able to pick and choose from them no matter what mission you want to take on next.

Hitman III has been made with replayability front and center. You simply cannot see and do everything that a mission has to offer in a single playthrough, and the Mastery tracks keep things fresh as you take new approaches, use new items and discover previously unexplored areas.

Depending on how you choose to complete your objectives, you’ll be awarded with a Playstyle at the end of each mission. From the coveted Silent Assassin to a Hired Gun and everything in between, there’s a Hitman style for every player. Maybe you’re a Marksman?

Hitman III will have full PS VR support. Yes, that means you can traverse the outside of the tallest building in the (Hitman) world in PS VR! If you own the previous games from the trilogy on PS4, you can also access locations from them within Hitman III. That’s more than 20 Hitman locations from the World of Assassination trilogy to enjoy in PS VR.

You can either play Hitman III in PS VR natively on your PS4 or via backward compatibility on PS5. To make sure all PS VR owners can experience the game in VR, we’re including a free digital copy of the PS4 version of Hitman III with all PS5 copies, whether you choose to buy it via disc or digital.

Hitman III will look, sound and play better than ever with improvements to lighting, reflections, animation and AI. Chongqing also features full water effects, with details such as rain drops hitting Agent 47 and his clothes getting wet, all adding to the immersion of experiencing Hitman III.

On next-gen consoles, Hitman III will run in 4K resolution at 60 frames per second with HDR support.

Hitman III is currently available for Nintendo Switch (through Cloud Technology), PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X, Xbox One, Google Stadia and PC (Epic Games Store).
