Latest News - Pre-Load

Players on PlayStation or Xbox platforms will be able to pre-load the game, ready to start playing as soon as it hits unlock time.

PC Players won't be able to pre-load, and instead will have to begin downloading the game once it unlocks at 8am EST/1pm GMT.

Locations Revealed

Hitman 3 will feature six new locations to play in and cause havoc across.

These locations are,

  • Dubai, UAE
  • Dartmoor, United Kingdom
  • Berlin, Germany
  • Chongqing, China
  • Mendoza, Argentina
  • Carpathian Mountains, Romania

It's a global tour for Agent 47 as Hitman 3 arrives, but where will you head to first?

Release Date

Hitman 3 is set to launch worldwide on January 20th on all platforms.

Platforms

Hitman 3 is due to launch on PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Google Stadia, PC via Epic Games Store, and Nintendo Switch via cloud gaming.

Size

It has been said that the trilogy of Hitman games will take up less than 100GB in total.

This would also indicate that all three games will link together as one, much like Hitman 1 and 2 do.

CONCLUSION: Hitman 3 will wrap up the World Of Assassination trilogy.

Players that launch Hitman 2 can see all of the missions from Hitman 1 and if they're installed then are playable from within Hitman 2.

This makes the trilogy one seamless story, rather than three separate games.
