HITMAN 3 - Bug Report Thread

Platform: PC, Steam

Location: Freelancer Mendoza, edit: Regular Mendoza aswell

Description: Game crashes upon picking up the sniper rifle from Sniper’s Nest

Steps to reproduce:

Trying to pick up the sniper rifle while holding briefcase and axe from Yates’ Villa while wearing black guard uniform results in a crash, saying it failed to reach memory 0x0000…0

Edit: Upon further testing on Regular Mendoza can say, that happens while trying to get that rifle with unsheathable melee in hand (tried with Sapper’s Axe and Broadsword), briefcase and disguise doesn’t seem to be the reason. Unfortunately, didn’t manage to get that memory error message, like I did on Freelancer Mendoza.

Frequency: Tried 5 times, happened 5 times.

Platform - PS5
Location - Literally everywhere on every map
Description - Running is bugged, really, really bugged. It’s been this way for over 3 months. When you press or hold (Happens with both) the button to run it will toggle endlessly between running and a walk with walking being preferred by the game. Basically making timed objectives impossible.
Steps to reproduce - No clue, but it seems I’m the only person with it but if there is someone else please let me know.
Frequency - The last 3 months non stop.

When killing multiple non-targets in quick succession, the red text display saying “NON-TARGET KILLED” will display incorrectly for the second kill and will incorrectly show a XP penalty being added up that doesn’t actually get applied.

Location: Whittleton Creek (and many other locations)'s Plate

Description: Some people seem to eat banana with the peel to avoid wasting any nutrients. Is this a healthy habit?

Steps to reproduce: Equip a banana and place it on plate should be in the possession of blueberry muffins (apologies to Mr. Muffin for having taken your seat.) and enjoy an episode of Big Appetite.

Frequency: A persistent technical issue that was probably caused by the developers forgetting about it when they released bananas.

Hitman - Bangkok - PS5.

In the area left of the main reception area where the exterminator is working- if you shoot out the cameras the green grid continues to be shown despite the cameras being broken.

Only a minor issue.

Inconsistent capitalization of letters in the item descriptions for the White Yukata and the VIP Patient suits. Bolded the letters I’m referring to.

White Yukata:
A custom white silk yukata with crimson obi. White tabi and lacquered paulownia geta.

VIP Patient:
A traditional Yukata, in a summer theme. With dark patterned Obi, white Tabi and Geta.

Edit: Also White Yukata has a fullstop where its clearly meant to be a comma after the word “obi” as the listing continues.

Maybe the grid is from the cameras on the upper floors?

Oooohh you know what I didn’t think of that. I’ll experiment :+1:

Platform: Switch (both enhanced performance and enhanced graphics)

Location: Any mission: freelancer, campaign, contracts, sniper challenge (not in menus)

Description: Game freezes in an unusual way. Pretty sure it is not an internet connection issue as that normally comes with a message about the disconnect and I’ve checked my connection speed which is always quite good. Gameplay freezes but audio continues to come through.

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Start the game
  2. Load or start a mission
  3. Play until it freezes.

Frequency: Never used to see it. Shortly after recent update I see it all the time. Sometimes I get 30 min of play, sometimes 1 minute of play. But it inevitably seems to come. I am afraid to do the elusive target because it led to me losing a freelancer run even though I didn’t die. Don’t want to have the same thing happen and ruin my elusive target. He’s only around for another 2 weeks, so I’d prefer if this gets fixed before then.

I have a couple of video examples, which I shared with a non-dev ioi employee over email. It won’t let me upload video to this post though.

I was in a discord server for Hitman speed runs and at least one other switch user has seen similar issues post update.

I’ve had the same problem, also on Switch. Started after the October update. It is getting increasingly worse. Makes things frustrating and unplayable. Have you got any feedback? I’m worried to do the most recent elusive target in case it counts me as failing if my game freezes between the kill and escape. Already lost a freelancer run this way. How’d you upload video? I took a video on my phone but on the issue I put on this forum it wouldn’t let me because of the file format.

The tile image for the Podium Starting Location is incorrect as it shows 47 wearing a, presumably, pre-release version of the Event Crew disguise as the disguise worn when starting the mission is coloured completely different.

Have you gotten your Purple Streak Suit yet? I still haven’t gotten mine, 14 days after claiming it on Twitch. I’m also playing on the Nintendo Switch, with all my accounts linked.

Nope, i still don’t have it and no response from IOI either here or Twitter so not even sure they’re aware of the problem!

I would recommend raising a support ticket on their Player Support hub than relying on sending a post on X to get the issue resolved tbh.

Hitman 3

PS5 (but maybe other platforms too)

The escalation tile on the Live tab does not show all available uncompleted escalations. It only shows 7 of them:
The Halliwell Fable
The Berlin Egg Hunt
The Jinzhen Incident
The Satu Mare Delirium
The Greed Enumeration
The Lesley Celebration
The Proloff Parable

After these 7 are completed, the tile doesn’t show any more uncompleted escalations even though there are tons more Hitman 3 escalations (plus legacy escalations) that could be shown.

This is weird cause I could have sworn that all the escalations showed up on the tile back in Year 1

If you complete the scenario where you pacify The Kashmirian, pick up his dongle, go to his apartment and use the dongle on his laptop to learn that Vanya and Dawood took contracts out on each other; upon killing one and then going to a phone to call the other, the dialogue that plays on the phone call for both 47 and Vanya/Dawood plays at an extremely low volume compared to all other voice dialogue.

Looking at YouTube footage of this same scenario within the older HITMAN 2 launcher shows that this is not something that was always been present and it previously used to play at the same volume as all other voice dialogue in the game (based on game settings). This is a bug that has been introduced at some point.

On this particular locked door, once it is opened it cannot be closed due to conflicting with the man leaning against the wall it goes into. If that man is moved or killed, no problem
