Hitman 3 teases globetrotting adventure in full location reveal

IO Interactive revealed the full list of locations wannabe assassin’s can look forward to exploring in the upcoming Hitman 3. As expected, the developers aim for a varied journey that spans across the globe once again.

In case you plan to experience Hitman 3 as an entirely clean slate, you might want to steer clear. To be fair, there are no story spoilers of any kind in the location reveal. But getting to grips with each new locale is arguably one of the best parts of the Hitman series.

Nonetheless, here’s a rundown of all six locations featured in Hitman 3:

  • Dubai, UAE
  • Dartmoor, United Kingdom
  • Berlin, Germany
  • Chongqing, China
  • Mendoza, Argentina
  • Carpathian Mountains, Romania

If you followed the release of Hitman 3 so far, you’ll notice that three of the six locations were already heavily promoted. The jaw-dropping skylines of Dubai are prominently the poster child of the new Hitman game.

But beyond that, IO Interactive also showcased Hitman 3’s Dartmoor and its unique appeal. Unlike many other destinations, here it’s all about depth, not width. The unassuming estate in the British countryside also features a rather unique twist on classic murder mysteries.

With Chongqing, Agent 47 also makes his way into China. And while the city’s name might not ring any bells, it totally should. It’s a massive city with a population of over 30 million people. Prepare for large crowds and seedy back alleys filled with neon.

In that regard, Berlin, Mendoza, and the Carpathian Mountains are the big surprises today. You can read more about each location’s unique appeal on the developer post here. Just a heads up. While there are no story spoilers, you’ll learn the order of progression.

Hitman 3 launches this month, January 20th, for PC, Stadia, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S. A cloud version for the Switch will come at a future date.
