Another absolutely superb game from IO Interactive, I loved it. As a compilation this is one of the best packages ever in my opinion. So much good stuff, and the new levels are great.

All DLC from a past game is in that game's one add on pack*. As long as you have those (might need to wait for launch to redeem) you'll have everything. The game is not intended to have lots of add-ons like past entries.
*there's slight variations for H2 for season pass
Anyone here has an Asian region PSN? SEA in particular I think Hitman 3 is still not available in many of these countries' stores I have no clue why. I already have Hitman 1 and 2 and I'm afraid that if I buy Hitman 3 in another region's store the first 2 won't be compatible.....
Hitman 3 isnt able to preload/preoder in ASIA regions because of a age rating thingy apparently. It will be available to buy on release tho. So 24ish hours.
HITMAN 3 - Player Guide - IO Interactive
Everything you need to know about HITMAN 3, including how to carryover your locations and progression from HITMAN 2.

having an excuse to revisit hitman 1 and especially 2 (which i adored by played less than 1) is exciting enough on its own
If you already have used an IOI account in Hitman 2, no. If you didn't, yeah, you'll have to download and sign up for one in game to sync your progress to your account. Then you import that progress to Hitman 3 using a website they have yet to put live.
So because of shitty sony getting vr exclusivity, im going to buy it on ps5. I've looked at the pre launch guide and im still confused. There's too much shit.
My simple question, on Ps5 what do I need to buy to have access to all the levels from Hitman 1 and 2 (including DLC levels) in Hitman 3?
My simple question, on Ps5 what do I need to buy to have access to all the levels from Hitman 1 and 2 (including DLC levels) in Hitman 3?
Hitman 1 GOTY and Hitman 2 Gold both which are currently on sale on PSN. Or the access pack dlc which release tomorrow together with Hitman 3, with price TBA.
Hitman 1 GOTY and Hitman 2 Gold edition should get you all content from what I know.
Hitman 1 Access Pass and Hitman 2 Gold Access Pass
Can either be purchased by buying Hitman 1 and 2 games or by just buying the passes when Hitman 3 launches
IOk thanks. I already have Hitman on Ps4 after getting it for free on PS plus. Is that enough or do i need to still buy the goty version?
You get the regular Hitman 1 stuff then without the GOTY stuff (Patient Zero campaign, and some suits i think). But still all the world of assassination story levels
Edit: got corrected, you get a free GOTY upgrade on transfer. Didnt know that.
You don't need the goty version. They're upgrading everyone for free to make the process slightly simpler.
Just this, given you already have Hitman via plus: https://store.playstation.com/en-gb/product/EP3969-CUSA12414_00-HITMANGOLDBUNDLE
You get a free GOTY upgrade, the Hitman PS Plus stuff is all good
Oh really? thought they still differntiate there like they did for Hitman2. Nice if they upgrade you for free.
Here's a video. Seems like there is no HDR on the old-gen consoles for some reason. Locked 60 FPS on Series S/X and PS5.
No, and there are no DLC levels planned according to IO. The Deluxe edition of H3 just gives you some extra escalations and 3 suits/items and digital Artbook & developer commentary i think..
1) Are there reviews or impressions of the PS4 version?
2) Since I already own 1 and 2, I'll be able to have those legacy levels in 3, correct?

I am so beyond terrible at this game but I bought 1 & 2 in preparation and can't wait to play 3.
I was always so afraid of these games... what helped me is watching a ton of youtube walk throughs.. not the crazy 10 second ones but realistic plans and play throughs.. Then when I finally headed in I abused the crap out of the save system.. I eventually started to think the right way to play the game on my own and ended up really really loving them. But even as I type this I am getting stressed thinking about the third game... no other series does this to me but I love it.

Rich, rewarding, and highly replayable, Hitman 3 is one of the barcoded butcher's best appearances.
I've also have them on the side for the longest time since it always felt like my stealth playstyle didn't really mesh with these games.
Then I watched Dan play 15 minutes of this game and I realized it doesn't matter - seems like they very much let you play like you want.

That looks really cool! Has there been any comment about VR coming to PC from IOI?
I hope it's not gonna turn into a RE7 situation.
Grrr. Game started preloading last night on my PS5, but it actually downloaded the PS4 version first. PS5 version downloading now. It will be ready tomorrow for sure but just seems like a waste of bandwidth/data. Ed: Saw this had been noticed by others a few pages back.
Reviews seems great. Can't wait to start playing.

It's possible it's a timed exclusive. It's possible RE7 is as well and Capcom just didn't want to do the work.
I'd imagine PCVR will come down to sales also, if it does great then they have the incentive for a pc version.
Hopefully it does, IOI killed it with these games and they deserve to do big numbers.
It would also be a nice bullet point for them to launch with the Steam version in a year.

Sure, they have never commented on PCVR for RE7 though did they? Not even in a "it won't come" kind of way?
When it finishes preloading, be sure to hit options-> mange game content on the tile in your library to check it installed all the content unlock keys it was supposed to. Missed 3 of them for me
Yeah i hate that on PS5 for crossgen games, and i hope sony fixes that shit soon. Smart Delivery on xbox doesnt have this problem at all i think.
But progression is synced between the two? Would be strange two do all over again if you want to play a level VR
I assume so and their wording seems to imply it works that way but I don't want to say for sure
Yes. The import method is same way for PS4/PS5, and your save game and unlocks would all carry over to PS5 when you finally got one.
the channel Outside Xbox has a whole "three ways to play" playlist for the Hitman games that is a pretty good showcase for that. Typically the videos have one person who does it stealthy, one who sort of takes it as it comes, and one who goes pure chaos. Looking forward to seeing their hitman 3 videos, after I've played all the levels.
