All Six Locations Revealed for Hitman 3 in a Spoiler Free List

Glad back in UK, the missions are always top quality when been here before in previous games.

Part of me wishes that there are more locations. There are probably more but those are probably non free dlcs.

The Manor stands out to me. Looking forward to that one the most.

[Mandon Knight]

Okay cool, so it's one of the best games of the series, awesome news.

 

[psylockolussus]

Yeah I'm more tempted to get it now. But I will wait nowtil its like 25 dollars.

 

[Spidey_62]

I hardly play any video games but I adore this series, have sank countless hours of fun into the new trilogy and 3 is a terrific sendoff for the characters til we meet again.

 

[psylockolussus]

They got their production cost in seven days.

Hitman 3 DLC Will Reimagine Existing Locations, 'Twisting Them'

They did similar stuff for the last two games, looking forward to what they give us, Berlin and Dubai have a lot of potential for reimagining.

 

[Spidey_62]

Yeah, especially for 2016 they did some cool retoolings of existing maps for new missions. Sapienza they managed to make 3 different spins out of that map alone. I really enjoyed those bonus missions, heck the whole Patient Zero campaign was great.

I really should revisit Patient Zero, I never managed to complete the Hokkaido mission in that campaign, it always escalated far beyond my control and put me in a position where about a third of the NPC's would have to be killed.

That was intense!

I like how if you get at least 47 people infected you get challenge points and if you can contain it before anybody at all is infected you can also get challenge points lol.

 

[psylockolussus]

I let them all get infected so I could assassinate them all

 

[The Infernal]

If the Lee Hong Derivation is any indication of the re-imagining or twist on existing maps then they're kinda crap tbh. The escalation missions are just too gimmicky for me. Between them and how they've implemented the contracts mode there isn't much new or interesting to do and it breaks the immersion playing the same map with the same characters all in the same behaviour loop and you have to take out random guard or random passerby.

Contracts mode has been a feature for a few games now and it still feels so lazy. You should be able to pick from a menu what targets and parameters you want for the target, their behaviour or even their skin rather than having to play through a level simply tagging characters and means of execution.

New maps, elusive target arcade, and more? I'm excited.

This game's success must've changed plans cause at one point early this year they said there was gonna be no new maps- it's really exciting to see, these games deserve all the love. Can't wait to see what's coming, that place in the woods kinda looks like one of the oldschool Hitman safehouses.

 

[Havok83]

I was about to buy the game on BF but then saw this news and hope they will release a complete edition early next year

Elusive Target Arcade
Release: January 20

Elusive Target Arcade is a brand new game mode that takes the Elusive Target concept to the next level, mixes up the formula and introduces new challenges and unlockable rewards – all whilst keeping the essence of what makes Elusive Targets exciting and interesting to play.

There are several significant chances to the mode here: Each Arcade Contract now tasks you with taking down consecutive Elusive Targets, one contract after the other. Each one must be completed to proceed to the next – and there are additional complications added to the contract as well.

If you fail an Arcade Contract at any point, there will be a 12-hour lockout before you can retry the contract again from the start. This lockout enables us to keep the high-stakes gameplay that is a hallmark of Elusive Targets, whilst also giving players a clear indication of when they are able to play a particular Elusive Target again.

Crucially, Arcade Contracts are permanent additions to HITMAN 3. Once we add one to the game, they won’t go away.

Our aims with this game mode are; to give players the chance to engage and play Elusive Target content more frequently, provide a new challenge for long-time players in the Elusive Target game mode, create a new type of recurring content that will reward players with desirable unlocks.

When HITMAN 3 – Year 2 begins on January 20, the Arcade will also be open with a total of 3 Arcade Contracts, each one with Elusive Targets from a specific game in the World of Assassination trilogy. As you can see in the screenshot, the Ellipses Arcade Contract has three targets from HITMAN 3. Two other Arcade Contracts will also be available on January 20 with targets from HITMAN 1 and HITMAN 2 respectively.

As we move through the year, more Arcade Contracts will be added to the Arcade. We can’t wait to see our players take on this new challenge!

HITMAN Freelancer
Release: Spring 2022

Freelancer is a brand new, single-player mode coming to HITMAN 3 that introduces roguelike elements, strategic planning and a customisable safehouse.

Let’s start by exploring one of the new maps coming to HITMAN 3 in Year 2: Agent 47’s Safehouse. This playable space is an entirely different type of location and we’ve never built anything like it before. It’s customisable and allows you to choose exactly what type of Hitman you are (or want Agent 47 to be!). As you progress through Freelancer, more areas of the Safehouse can be unlocked and new customisation options will become available.

You can configure and customise the safehouse to your exact specifications and spend as much time as you want there. Whether you want to pick out a new suit, browse and test your weapons at the firing range or make changes to your décor, it’s all possible. The Safehouse is also an important space because all of your pre-mission planning takes place there.

After exploring the safehouse, it’s time to work. 47 will have access to a ‘mission hub’ where he can view all of the currently available Freelancer campaigns, each one representing a criminal enterprise that is prominent across the World of Assassination. It’s entirely your choice which campaign you pick and each one will take you on a globetrotting campaign to a selection of locations.

For each campaign, you need to choose the order you want to play the missions. After each mission, you’ll return to the safehouse to restock, resupply and strategically plan your next move. Whichever location you leave until last will be where you’ll corner the Leader of the enterprise. Blow their cover, eliminate them, and the campaign is complete. You get paid and return to your safehouse.

Campaign missions have been reworked to fit the Freelancer mode. For example, locations will have new NPC types, that can either help or hinder your progress. Suppliers will offer a selection of weapons and items that you can acquire to increase your chances of success, whereas other NPCs will alert Leaders and make your job more difficult. In addition to these NPCs, there are several other elements that will make the Freelancer campaigns unique. You’ll be able to find safes, hidden stashes and even other NPC Assassins…

Unlike the main Hitman campaign, your gear in Freelancer is not persistent. Anything you bring on a mission and don’t bring back to the safehouse, will be lost. (If you thought you were attached to your Silverballer before, wait until you’ve left it in Dartmoor and it’s gone. For good.) Looking for gear at a Supplier is one way to restock your inventory, or replace a lost treasure.

Consumables, such as explosives or poison syringes, will also need to be restocked, since there’s no supply from the ICA in Freelancer.

We’re excited about Freelancer giving players a persistent and infinitely replayable experience that is entirely their own; from customising their safehouse to match their style or mood, configuring and strategically planning for campaigns through to picking a playstyle with all of their gear on the line.

HITMAN Freelancer is coming to HITMAN 3 – Year 2 this Spring. We’ll have more details to share leading up to its release.

This is the good stuff and honestly I'm as excited about these updates, if they're as extensive as they sound, as I am about a lot of new releases this year. Freelancer sounds like a really fun way to keep things fresh and interesting, I love it. And of course finally getting to replay Elusive Targets.

So nice to go from not expecting any additional content beyond 7DS, to getting all of this, really looking forward to year two of this game.

 

[Spidey_62]

Freelance mode with the customizable safehouse sounds really cool, adding in RPG elements like that is a great idea.
