Hitman 3 is the third sequel of the World of Assassins series and the eighth part of the Hitman series. It is a single-player stealth game that features our all-time favorite Assassin ‘Agent 47’. Developed and published by IO Interactive, Hitman 3 is set to release on 20 January 2021 for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X and Series S, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. The VR game mode will be exclusively for PS5.
There will be two versions available for the game- the deluxe edition and the standard edition, and now you can Pre-order the game. The differences between both the editions are that the standard edition contains the game whereas, the deluxe edition includes the base game, digital soundtracks, cool in-game items, sexy suits, and much more. If you pre-order the game you’ll get a bonus called a Trinity Pack which incudes Hitman(2016) and Hitman 2.
Hitman 3 in PSVR
Hitman 3 is enabled with Virtual Reality, the VR gameplay mode is exclusively for PS5 with Oculus VR. Now, you don’t have to watch the bald head of Agent 47 in third-person mode, you’ll be able to see, experience, and play as Agent 47 itself in a first-person view.
One of the most fascinating aspects of Hitman 3 VR is that the weapons will mimic real-world maneuvers when you use it as stated by Mohl. Senior game designer Eskil Mohl promised that Hitman 3 VR will resume the cherished sandbox-game experience where the gamers can craft their own plans and strategies.
Moreover, Mohl also revealed in an AMA Reddit thread that Hitman 3 VR will not be using PlayStation’s Move controllers, but instead, it will use the DualShock controller. This will help the players to take advantage of the gamepad’s motion sensors and gyro aiming.
Hitman 3 gameplay
The gameplay is pretty the same as the previous Hitman man series except for VR. You have to disguise, blend into the crowd, act natural, stock your target, hear conversations, and wait for the perfect opportunity to eliminate the target. One thing is for sure that you will be equipped with fiber wire to strangle the victims. To eliminate your targets, you will be presented with several ways to choose from and of course, you can replay the completed mission.
Unlike Hitman 2, there will be no Ghost-Mode(1vs1 multiplayer) in Hitman 3. The Campaign will have four modes to enjoy- Elusive Targets, Escalations, Contracts, and Sniper Assassin.
Storyline
Hitman 3 will be the dramatic conclusion of the Hitman World of Assassins trilogy- stated by IO Interactive. In this part, the main objective of the game is to eliminate the partners of Providence.
When three extremely rich dynasties came together to merge their monetary resources into one, it led to the birth of Providence, an incredibly powerful, ancient secret society that controls the world.
It was Providence, which funded Dr. Ort-Meyer’s unethical genetic engineering programs, which led to the birth of Agent 47 and materialized him to become the perfect assassin. So for fulfilling his personal grudge, Agent 47 is out to yet another adventure to eliminate Providence leaders.
Hitman 3 setting and system requirements
Till now, we only know that Agent 47 will be discharged to two new locations: Dubai and Dartmoor, England.
As the Hitman 3 VR trailer suggests, Agent 47 will attend a plush event in Dubai that has a mix of high-brow tourists and rich men dressed in traditional white Arab clothing. The posh venue features stunning gold articulations around doorways and stylish, minimalist furnishings. In another trailer, we see Agent 47 to climb a Dubai Skyscraper and in one scene we see him wearing a skydiving suit.
In Dartmoor, England, by pretending to be an investigator, Agent 47 will pay a visit to an old-money family. The family’s mansion is massive and extravagant with dark halls, filled with creepy portraits of forefathers, all of this gives it an ancient and haunted look.
