Hitman 3

While the Hitman series is set to have a well-deserved rest, it also seems as if the latest entry in the series, Hitman 3, has taken the series to seemingly new heights before this slumber. The game once again puts you in the shoes of Agent 47 as he hunts down various targets. The game comes at the tail end of an acclaimed reboot trilogy, and it’s one that’s struck a cord in a big way.

IO Interactive CEO Hakan Abrak sat down with GamesIndustry to talk about the game’s success as well as the future for IO going forward. There he revealed that the third game had sold a staggering 300% better than the previous game in the series, Hitman 2. While it was known the game had quite a successful launch, with stories like the game having the biggest digital launch in series history, that is still an incredible jump up.

Hitman 3 is available now for all major platforms. You can read about the game’s latest DLC that just released, Season of Greed, through here.
