If you’ve been a fan of the Hitman franchise, there is some good news for you that happen to own Hitman 3 or the others in the series. IO Interactive revealed new details about how players (both existing and new) will experience, access, and purchase HITMAN 1, HITMAN 2, and HITMAN 3. I myself can’t wait to explore the locations I’ve yet to try out in-game with this new big update to the entire franchise, called Hitman World of Assassination.
With IO Interactive going all out for those that enjoy HITMAN, there will be so much for players to dive into. Looking for more information on this, IO Interactive has supplied a bit of what’s going on along with what to expect going into the future.
As of January 26, 2023, the changes below are planned to come into effect.
-
HITMAN 3 will become ‘HITMAN World of Assassination’, which will also include access to HITMAN 1 and HITMAN 2 through the existing Access Pass system. Current HITMAN 3 owners will get a free upgrade to HITMAN: WOA on all platforms.
-
IO Interactive is drastically simplifying the purchase experience for new players. HITMAN World of Assassination will be the single available option to start playing.
Essentially, these two changes will mean that all new players and existing HITMAN 3 owners will have the same base content ownership. There will be no more confusion over which edition to buy, what content you own, how to redeem Legacy packs or import locations, etc.
HITMAN – World of Assassination Deluxe Pack (approx. $30 USD or local equivalent) Includes: H3 Deluxe Pack, H3 Seven Deadly Sins Collection, and H2 Expansion Access Pass. Full details about the change, including details about the upcoming product listings and a breakdown of why the team has opted for this plan, can be found in the blog here: https://www.ioi.dk/hitman-3-
