    FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS and OUR SPOILER POLICY

    Posted: 12 Jan 2021 09:57 AM PST

    HITMAN 3 will be released January 20th, 2021.

    • PREORDER HERE (digital + retail) - FYI there will be no difference between Digital and Physical (retail) versions, so please don't ask about any discrepancies

    Can I upgrade to Deluxe Edition if I get Standard Edition?

    • Yes, because the only difference between Standard Edition and Deluxe Edition is the Deluxe Pack. The Deluxe Pack will be sold separately from Launch Day.

    Do I get the HITMAN 1 and HITMAN 2 levels if I preorder HITMAN 3 (Deluxe)?

    • No.

    Will I get the PS5 version of the game if I get the PS4 version? And vice versa?

    • Yes, for free. PSVR mode is ONLY available in the PS4 version of the game, so getting the PS4 version is essential (and that's why it's free).
    • This is for both physical and digital versions of the game.

    COLLECTOR'S EDITION or STEELBOOK?

    • No.

    Why is the Deluxe Edition more expensive on Epic than other stores?

    • We don't know.

    [Question about the Steam version]?

    • We have zero information about the Steam version (except that it's coming in 2022). That is all we know, so please don't ask any questions about it.

    [PC physical edition question]?

    • If it doesn't show up on hitman.com/buy, then it doesn't exist.

    How do I buy the HITMAN 2016 / HITMAN 2 levels?

    • The 2016/H2 levels will be available for purchase in HITMAN 3 as DLC. The 2016/H2 levels are NOT part of any edition of HITMAN 3. They must be either bought separately or transferred from the previous games (if you owned them).

    Future DLC or multiplayer modes?

    • There won't be any new maps; only repurposing of existing locations (interpret that how you want). No multiplayer modes.

    ━━━━━━━━━━━━━

    When will HITMAN 3 release and on what platforms?

    • All 6 locations will fully (NOT EPISODICALLY) release on January 20th, 2021 on PS4, PS5, PSVR, XBOX ONE, XBOX Series X, Stadia, Nintendo Switch (cloud-streaming) and PC. HITMAN 3 will be an Epic Games Store exclusive for one year before becoming available on Steam.
    • The PS5 version and PS4 version are separate versions; however, owners of the PS4 version can upgrade to the PS5 version for free, and vice versa (this means you are allowed PSVR Mode no matter which PS version of the game you buy). The different XBOX versions leverage Smart Delivery.
    • Locations in order: Dubai, Dartmoor, Berlin, Chongqing, Mendoza, and Carpathian Mountains.

    Will I be able to carry over my progression and locations from HITMAN 2 or 2016?

    • Progress carryover works for both physical and digital versions of the game, as long as you own the game and have played it.
    • You will be able to carry over progression only from HITMAN 2 (base game + DLC + Legacy). Progression carryover is optional.
    • !! STEAM TO EPIC GAMES PROGRESS TRANSFER WILL BE POSSIBLE !! (THE SPECIFICS ARE NOT KNOWN YET. THIS THREAD WILL BE UPDATED ONCE WE KNOW SPECIFICALLY HOW THE PROGRESS TRANSFER WILL WORK.) Cross-platform progression carryover details not known at the moment. Epic Games Store to Steam progression carryover details not known at the moment.
    • ACHIEVEMENTS ARE AVAILABLE ON THE EPIC GAMES VERSION.
    • People who do not already own HITMAN 2016 and/or HITMAN 2 will be able to buy the levels through HITMAN 3. So don't worry if you don't own the past 2 games.

    Will the cutscenes be still-images like HITMAN 2?

    • The cutscenes in HITMAN 3 will be like this: https://youtu.be/te_nocX0gi4 (we don't know if the HITMAN 2 cutscenes will be updated to the new style, but don't count on it)

    Will HITMAN 3 require an online connection like the last 2 games?

    • Yes.

    Is HITMAN 3 the last Hitman game ever?

    • No. It is just the last game in the current trilogy (2016, H2, H3).

    Will HITMAN 3 be coming to PC VR?

    • What we know at the moment is that VR will be available for Playstation VR. All levels from 2016 to H3 will be available in VR mode. However, VR mode is ONLY available in HITMAN 3. Not 2016 or H2.

    Can my PC / console run HITMAN 3? How much storage space will the game take up?

    Dual silverballers or human shield?

    • No.

    Will HITMAN 3 require an online connection like the last 2 games?

    • Yes.

    ━━━━━━━━━━━━━

    SPOILER POLICY

    HITMAN 3 is fast approaching, so we're laying down some guidelines for spoilers that people may not wanna see before the 20th. (Of course, the best way to avoid spoilers will be to avoid this subreddit for the time being; but I know some can't help themselves.)

    1. You may not have spoilers in the post title. This is the most severe case of spoiler and is non-negotiable.
    2. If you make a post discussing or showing spoilers, you must put (SPOILERS) in the title or use Reddit's spoiler-tag feature. (On mobile, use > ! spoiler text here ! < without the spaces to spoiler censor your words.)
    3. If you make a comment / reply discussing spoilers, you must cover up the text with the spoiler censor. This is a built-in Reddit feature, so please use it!

    WHAT COUNTS AS A SPOILER? Basically any gameplay or story info that IO Interactive hasn't posted themselves. So the rule of thumb: if IOI hasn't talked about it, if it spoils the game's story, and if it spoils any gameplay details that IOI hasn't shared yet... then it is a SPOILER.

    If you break any of these rules, you will be removed from the subreddit (depending on the severity).

    2 weeks after the game releases (February 3), this spoiler rule will be alleviated.

    These rules may seem a bit annoying, but it's simply to make sure people who don't want to be spoiled don't get spoiled. It's a common courtesy :) but, again, the best way to avoid spoilers is to simply avoid this subreddit.

    Just found out that if you get into the vault as a bank robber and take 7 gold bars, your mask becomes golden and a Golden Sawed Off Bartoli spawns

    Let's take a moment to be thankful for how damn lucky we are that this trilogy is getting a proper ending, as well as grateful for just how incredible the Hitman community is.

    Posted: 13 Jan 2021 03:03 AM PST

    It feels like not that long ago that Sqaure Enix cut the IOI team loose. I remember thinking then that this series was probably over. Now a few years later we've had not one but two more games.

    For a long time, the idea of seeing an end to the narrative of Providence was possibly never going to happen. Now we're right on the cusp of seeing it finally conclude.

    I'm constantly amazed at the passion that IOI have for this franchise and the genuine love they have for 47.

    The same way, I'm thankful that Hitman has such a relaxed, passionate and altogether positive fanbase over the long history of this franchise.

    And yes, I'm just killing time until Hitman 3 so I am a little bored.

    A much better look at the new face. I think the other comparison photo was a bit unfair.

    What game were you most excited for

    Posted: 13 Jan 2021 03:32 AM PST

    Apart from the main story line which is built perfectly with the plot of Providence and Agent 47, elusive targets is one mode I'm really looking forward to as IO has said they are changing some mechanics of how it's played. What tweaks would you'll like to see in this game mode to make it a better?

    Posted: 12 Jan 2021 12:44 PM PST

    Which location are you guys most excited for and why

    Posted: 12 Jan 2021 04:14 PM PST

    Personally I think the Chongqing map looks very interesting and like it has a lot of sniper vantage points.

    Why is Epic Games Store so hated?

    Posted: 12 Jan 2021 03:13 PM PST

    I've heard from numerous people that Epic Games Store is garbage. I am wondering why.. Don't answer with "it's not steam", it obviously isn't, but there must be something else wrong with it I suppose.

    What could be the worst thing that could happen to Hitman 3?

    Posted: 12 Jan 2021 11:18 PM PST

    47 appears to be holding some sort of pistol with a rail-mounted laser sight, perhaps a new unlock?

    Is Hitman somewhat similar to MGSV?

    Posted: 12 Jan 2021 03:38 PM PST

    I'm interested in picking up Hitman 3 as I've been itching to play a stealth game somewhat similar to MGSV. While MGSV certainly had it's issues I felt the gameplay was probably as good as it gets for stealth gameplay. The amount of tools and different ways to approach missions was great and provided great replayability. From the few videos I've seen from the most recent Hitman games, while the gameplay doesn't look nearly as in depth as MGSV the map layouts do look like great fun, moreso than MGSV, the scenarios also seem to be much more inspired and each map does seem to be heavily replayable. Does it compare to MGSV or are they vastly different stealth games? Does it's gameplay depth compare to MGSV's? Also the ai doesn't look that great but I've seen people say it's by design.
