Hitman 3 is turning into the "World of Assassination" collection

Soon, Hitman and Hitman 2 will not be available for individual purchases.

Take note, stealth action fans – the modern Hitman series is combining into one massive package.

On Tuesday, developer IO Interactive announced that Hitman 3 will be known as Hitman World of Assassination soon, which includes Hitman and Hitman 2 content via the current Access Pass system. Yes, the entire trilogy will be under one roof from now on – as Hitman and Hitman 2 won’t be up for sale individually anymore. 

Hitman World of Assassination will cost $70, containing both the Hitman 1 Game of the Year Access Pass and Hitman 2 Standard Access Pass – which grants access to around 21 Destinations in total. Existing Hitman 3 owners will automatically gain access to Hitman and Hitman 2 content for free!

Time for New Year's cleanup

HITMAN 3 is becoming HITMAN: World of Assassination and will include content from HITMAN 1 & 2.

In a new blog post, IO Interactive explains that combining all three games should simplify the new purchasing options for new players.

“We’re absolutely certain that these changes will have a hugely positive effect on existing players and new players alike. It will also make our lives a lot easier too, there’s no doubting that,” IO Interactive said. “For many players, it will mean free content to enjoy. For others, it will mean significantly cheaper DLC prices. For new players, who probably aren’t reading this here, they’ll have a much better experience buying Hitman games.”

The Hitman games regularly receive loads of DLC – recent examples being the Ambrose Island mini-expansion and the highly-anticipated freelancer mode for Hitman 3 will be out later this month.

Last year, GLHF had the chance to speak with several actors from the Hitman series.
