Hitman 🐷3 is changing its name, nearly two years after it first launched.

Earlier today on January 3, developer IO Interactive announce🐈d via a new that Hitman 3 would be ditching its entire name. Starting on January 26 (ju𒐪st after the sequel's second anniversary), Hitman 3 will simply be called "Hitman: World of Assassination" going forward.

After this date: Hitman: World of Assassination will be the only way to play the third game in the series to all newcomers. This is basically IO Interactive's attempt to streamline the entire saga, as the blog post noteജs, bringing everything unde♓r one new roof.

To this end, all Hitman: World of Assassination owners will have the exact same content. This basically means content from Hitman 1 and Hitman 2, which was previously available for Hitman 3😼 players willing to shell out a little extra, is all going entirely free in thꦜe retitled game.

This means 21 total destinations from across the Hitman trilogy will all be immediately available in Hitman: World of Assassination, to both new aꦦnd veteran players. However, you'll need to purchase the Hitman: World of Assassination Deluxe Pack to gain access to the DLC maps from Hitman 1 and 2.

This includes Haven Island and New York, both of which were DLC for Hitman 2, as well as the Seven Deadly Sins contracts, which were DLC for Hitman 3. All the base Hitman trilogy content is being bundled together into one package, while also DLC from the thre🔯e games is similarly being bundled into one purchase option.

Elsewhere, we're still waiting on 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Hitman 3's rogue-like Freelancer mode, which was previously delayed out of 2022 and into this year.
