Hitman 3 (stylized as HITMAN III) is a stealth game developed and published by IO Interactive for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, Stadia (under the title Hitman: World of Assassination), and Nintendo Switch on 20 January 2021. You can take the role of a private investigator whoâs trying to solve a murder mystery. Itâs really an incredible time to be alive, folks.eval(ez_write_tag([[580,400],'halfglassgaming_com-medrectangle-3','ezslot_9',105,'0','0'])); Since I now have access to all of the World of Assassination content, I figured itâs time to rank all of the maps in the three most recent Hitman games from best to worst. Itâs a big map that feels even bigger on subsequent playthroughs. However, eventually the target shows up, and by that point you should have gathered a veritable armory of assassination tools. It actually reminds me of Osborneâs apartment from Marvelâs Spider-Man (which is probably my least favorite part of that entire game). In Chasing a Ghost, you have three targets, one of which requires a bit of detective work (which is quite fun). I think if it were just one clue that you needed to find, it would be much more bearable, but you need three, and some of the clues have multiple parts. Hitman III is the dramatic conclusion to the World of Assassination trilogy. HITMAN includes a wealth of content and game modes, catering to long-time fans and new players in equal measure. But on top of that, thereâs a lot of really neat stuff to do here. By myself ! Oh, and you can feed your targets (as well as innocent bystanders) to piranhas, which never stops being hilarious. This map is enormous, packed with little details that are really fun. I am including the DLC maps from Hitman 2 as well, though Iâm going to skip the Prologue missions (which are kind of mediocre) and the Sniper missions (which, in my opinion, are super boring). For now, we have the first two games of the sub-series. Even though the flamingo mascot suit is one of my favorite disguises in the series, and you can actually program an android to kill one of your targets (which is awesome), Miami just isnât very much fun. This is one case where multiple replays make the stage wear out its welcome, when so many other stages get better the more you play them. As cool as the location is, however, doing absolutely anything on this map feels like a chore. As mentioned previously if anything major comes to contradict this listing, Iâll be sure to retroactively adjust it when able. Death In The Family. Hitman 3 is the World of Assassination trilogy at its best, and its worst Hitman 3 is the third and final game in the World of Assassination trilogy, and it will be the last Hitman game weâll see in the near future, with developer IO Interactive now focused on their James Bond project. If this had the same basic formula as a standard Hitman map, it would actually be way more fun. The premise here is that youâre killing an indie rock star on his 27th birthday. Iâm especially fond of the little IT hideout (which seems to have deliberate references to The IT Crowd), and I think itâs really cool that Athena Savalas (the mission target) has an office behind the giant clock face. Initially, I had this map ranked higher, but on repeat playthroughs, the part where you have to get to the data can get kind of obnoxious. This map has potential, but I think it needs a little something extra to bring it up to the quality level of so many of Hitmanâs better maps. Try Stadia, Google's game streaming service, Some games are available with a free trial of Stadia Pro, and some require purchase. As a side note, The Percival Passage content (for those who bought the Deluxe Edition of Hitman 3) is really fun. Thatâs a pretty big to-do list, and it does sort of wear down your patience by the end. I will also say that the Patient Zero mission on this map is absolutely bonkers. The assassination targets can be challenging, but through experimentation, youâll eventually figure out simple ways to take out both â as well as destroying the virus, which is your third objective here. Haven Island is a tropical paradise, and itâs kind of lovely to just be hanging out there. Even the side stories force you into seemingly impossible situations. Still, Sapienza has a lot to offer for anyone willing to invest the time. Itâs really an incredible time to be alive, folks. The caveat, however, is that you also need to acquire some data. I originally had Sapienza lower on the list, but after multiple replays, Iâve really come to admire this map. Dubai features a bit of everything: wall-climbing precariously up the side of the worldâs tallest building, a second assassin whoâs trying to sneak in some poison pills (which you can confiscate), a very deadly art exhibit, exploitable security measures, and even some side missions that have a Rube Goldberg level of complexity.
