    Great game... Best Gameplay in a Hitman Game... The new locations are awesome. If you got all 3 Games (Hitman 2016, Hitman 2 2018 and Hitman 3) you can play months to get all the challanges. I think the best Game so far for the new Generation

    this company IO has made the worst iterative changes possible in any video game series. Having perfected the gameplay in Hitman:SA; they've continually stripped and re-added features, from the hideous crawling simulation Hitman Crab-Solution to the barren "Hitman" series we know now. This game is closest to SA, although w/o the 1PP camera & advanced AI from that game. Things I hate aboutthis company IO has made the worst iterative changes possible in any video game series.

This game is closest to SA, although w/o the 1PP camera & advanced AI from that game. Things I hate about new Hitman series and this game are as follows:
    - no 1PP camera, absolutely ruins the game from the getgo, the old series was one of the best 1PP in any video game ever. great pacing.
    - lazy online focus, SPG so why crappy user missions, 'leaderboards' (all fake w/o exception) and timed garbage DLC - **** off no one cares about that ****
    -reduced AI / nerf'd awareness. might as well play with an aimbot / wallhack.
    - reduced complexity and systems in every map compared to older games.
    Basically it's a Mafia sitiation, where the new devs just aren't as talented as the old devs who work in the indie space now.

    One of the best games in the franchise. The crazy amount of stuff you can do is insane. Sucks it's epic exclusive but it's not that big of a deal for such a great stealth game.

    I think Hitman 3 ended the trilogy in a very different but good way. I didn't expect it to end like this but i really enjoyed it. I also think that the missions have been more interesting sometimes than before.

    For me it's a 10. It's a game that I have been waiting for and for sure it's the best hitman.
    I'll start from what I didn't like:
    -music; the best soundtrack was in Hitman 2 -the fact that they are still working on a method to transfer Hitman 1&2 locations to new game if I have bought them earlier What I like: -this game is beautiful and highly replayable -more story and cinematic

    -great new mechanics, I love the camera and safe codes ideas
    -cool locations, Argentina is top
    more attention to the story

    It's just the perfect ending and I hope that we will recieve a lot of content in this year. I played H2 for about 300h and I that that I'll double this score with this masterpiece. Good job IO Interactive!

    Beautiful game that is first AAA game of 2021 and pretty good. Good start for possibly very good year for video games. There's tons of hits coming like Halo Infinite, Resident Evil Village, Far Cry 6 and many more and hopefully they will help forget cyberbug2077.

    At first i was hesitant, but then i was like "it's not made by cdprojectred, so it' can't be that bad". To my surprise hitman 3 is solid video game.

    Little bit short, but overall very enjoyable game. All the hate? just lol, ignore the hate, their opinion means nothing when they can't even point out any flaws and just whine about some stupid sht.

    I'm impressed enough. I mean, let's be real here, Cyberpunk 2077 is now new benchmark for any upcoming video game. And Hitman 3 is very clearly better video game than Cyberpunk 2077, so there's that. It's also good Hitman game overall.

    It's almost crazy how much care has went into this hitman trilogy compared to what cyberpunk 2077 was. Night and day difference.

    This game is amazing , maps are amazing , amongst the best in the series , graphics are beautiful, the story is actually quite good and implemented well , endning is surprisingly good compared to the rest of the trilogy

    This game has such low reviews because of mostly stupid reasons , I mean for one half of these negative reviews are just people Review bombing it for being and Epic
    This game is amazing , maps are amazing , amongst the best in the series , graphics are beautiful, the story is actually quite good and implemented well , endning is surprisingly good compared to the rest of the trilogy

    This game has such low reviews because of mostly stupid reasons , I mean for one half of these negative reviews are just people Review bombing it for being and Epic exclusive , that if just wrong and you can’t change my mind , at least play the game before giving it a 0 star review it’s a great game , some comment on the lack of innovation or change , fair enough but I absolutely loved the last to game and am still loving it and I personally did not carry over progress , aka I have 17 Maps to get 20 / 20 mastery on , seems daunting but I did all maps in hitman 2 (and legacy missions in that game) and I’m ready to do all of the trilogies maps again , which is proof how mutch I love this game ahaha

    And next the server issues , they a worse for some , for me it was just a few hours in the evening and as I’m writing this there is a persistent and Albiet annoying bug where as soon as I finish a mission I lose connection aka get no credit or unlocks for the mission , luckily I have an auto save right before but I understand the pain of those playing on master without auto saves that lost their entire missions progress , and yes I am annoyed that I can’t really play the game

    However I’m just ignoring the connection issues and the fact I’m missing a couple items such as the requiem pack from hitman 2 for my review as I’m sure they will be resolved soon

    But I do fully understand leaving a negative review , although I do think 0s are to low since you’ve not even played the game hahah , but bad reviews around 5/ 10 or maybe a hit lower are 100% justified though I think IO would appreciate it if you removed them once it’s fixed as the low reviews probably gonna scare people in the future from getting this amazing game ahaha

    Constant disconnects making me lose progress. Missing Hitman 2 content makes it very noticeable how much shorter this game is compared to 1 & 2. A few of the maps are good but the game is just destroyed by bad publishing decisions & online only systems.
    The offline mode is practically useless because you literally cannot save a single thing you do.

    Good end of trilogy! The best i would say!
    Very good optimization than in the past parts of hitman game! Nice graphic and gameplay, but disappointed that in the game no present Russian language and another Slavic languages!! It's so sad. And i recommend you play this game necessary!

This isn't to say the helpers weren't good, they were patient and tried their best to get the game working for me, but the fact that the game is so broken that after 2 days of help, and 6-7 different helpers giving their opinions on ways to fix it, and I'm still getting the exact same error as before I even asked for help, then something's gone wrong. I have never once had issue with the steam versions of Hitman 1 or 2, and have played many much more technically taxing games on my rig with no issues, and this game won't even start up. it's a shame, I was really looking forward to this game.

    Very epic game. If you haven't played the previous two games then it's probably not great, as the story is only so impactful when you have played the previous 2 games. The gameplay is the main focus of this game, and it is great gameplay, continuing its them of wacky

    Hitman 3 is solid enough game to start 2021 gaming season. It's nothing extremely new, but best of this new Hitman trilogy. Really cool looking big levels (by hitman standard) and very beautiful graphics.

    I would like to thank IO Interactive for making this great Hitman trilogy. Very solid game. These haters are just sad people who very likely play amateurish games like cyberpunk 2077.

    All these "i play videogames since 1980s" people should just give up already. Very clearly new games aren't made for people over 40. Games are made mostly for people in age range 18 to 38. Hitman 3 is great game. PS: I'm not saying that people over 40 can't enjoy videogames, of course they can, they just aren't target audience.

    I get it. It takes awhile to design these levels and all the in's and outs of them and the many ways you can complete them but overall this game is completely beyond lazy. Since Absolution came out the engine has basically been the exact same. Hitman 2016 looking COMPLETELY identical to Hitman 2 and 3 with nothing at all being changed or implemented. This game is not worth $60. You haveI get it.

Hitman codename 47 up until blood money were all completely different and unique in their own way. Sounds to me like Square Enix is getting knsanely greedy. Expand

    Danish developers prepared a new set of fantastic sandbox environments, filled them with crowds, scattered useful gadgets all around, and said: have fun however you want. If the best Hitman missions for you were those based on freedom, exploration and watching the surroundings carefully, Hitman 3 is what you need. It is a worthy finale of an exceptional trilogy.

    Finishing a trilogy successfully in any entertainment medium is not an easy task in videogames. However, IO Interactive managed to close the new story of Agent 47 in a remarkable way. Maybe it did not offer new gameplay mechanics, it even removed modes from past installments, but the level design did bring a new depth to Hitman III that we had not seen before. Without having to change the usual Hitman formula, IO Interactive gave us in Hitman III a game with replay value, challenges to overcome and content in the short, medium, and long term that will surely extend its life way after launch.

    Whether it’s the great scenario design packed with routes and opportunities, the well written story missions, the many funny surprises, the attractive presentation or the motivating reward system - Hitman 3 combines familiar strengths with some new ideas like the shortcut system and the sadly PlayStation exclusive VR mode. Still, Hitman 3 is not free from criticism. This mainly concerns AI quirks, smaller logical errors and missing PlayStation Move controls in VR.
