• Co-op Teammates: In the game's co-op mode, other players can join to help manage the domain and participate in battles.
  Human (Player)
• Retainers / Family Members: Given the multi-generational theme, it is likely that key family members or loyal retainers will act as AI companions on quests or as advisors in the strategic layer.
  Human (AI)

• Diana Burnwood (Via Comms / Narrative): Agent 47's primary handler. She provides mission briefings, intelligence on targets and locations, real-time updates during missions, and exfiltration guidance via radio communication. She is a crucial narrative and gameplay support figure but does not physically accompany 47 on missions.
  Human
• Lucas Grey (Temporary AI / Narrative): During certain story missions in Hitman 2 and the beginning of Hitman 3, Lucas Grey fights alongside Agent 47 as an AI-controlled companion or coordinates actions with him. His presence is scripted for specific narrative sequences.
  Human (Fellow Clone)
• Olivia Hall (Via Comms / Narrative): A skilled hacker allied with Lucas Grey and later 47. She provides technical support, hacking assistance, and intelligence via radio communication during certain missions.
  Human
• No Persistent Gameplay Companions: Agent 47 is a lone operative by nature. The core gameplay loop focuses on his individual skills in stealth, disguise, and assassination. He does not have persistent AI companions that follow him or can be commanded during missions.

• Building Blueprints: Likely discovered through exploration or quests, these would unlock new and advanced buildings for the player's settlement.
• Rare Resources: Special resources required for high-tier crafting and construction, found in dangerous or remote parts of the world.

• Location Mastery Unlocks (Starting Locations, Agency Pickups, Gear, Suits): Earned by gaining XP and leveling up Mastery for each specific mission location (up to Level 20). Unlocks new starting points within the level, allows smuggling items via Agency Pickups, and grants new weapons, gadgets, and cosmetic suits for use in any mission.
• Challenges (Assassination, Discovery, Feats, Targets): A vast list of specific tasks and objectives to complete within each mission, categorized by type. Completing challenges grants XP towards Location Mastery and sometimes unlocks specific items or achievements/trophies. Examples include eliminating a target in a specific way, finding all disguises, or completing a mission with a Silent Assassin rating.
• Intel & Mission Stories: Clues, documents, overheard conversations, or environmental interactions that reveal 'Mission Stories' – guided opportunities for often elaborate, unique, and sometimes humorous ways to assassinate targets. Following these stories can lead to unique kills and easier access.
• Disguises: Found by incapacitating NPCs. While not 'collected' in a persistent inventory (except for starting suit selection), discovering and utilizing all available disguises in a level is often a tracked challenge and key to unlocking all areas and opportunities.
• Items & Weapons (Found in Level / Unlocked): Numerous melee weapons, firearms, tools, and environmental objects can be found and used within each mission. Unlocking weapons and gear through Mastery allows them to be selected for loadouts or smuggled in.
• Shortcuts & Keys: Persistent shortcuts (e.g., permanently unlocked doors, ladders) can be opened within levels, making subsequent playthroughs or different approaches easier. Keys or keycards grant access to restricted areas.
• Freelancer Mode - Merces & Gear Collection: In Freelancer mode, players earn Merces (currency) to purchase weapons, gear, and tools from suppliers for their campaigns. Successfully completing campaigns allows them to add collected high-tier weapons to their permanent Safehouse collection. Failure can result in losing non-Safehouse gear.

• Pistols (Silenced & Unsilenced - e.g., ICA19, Krugermeier, HWK21): Handgun (Ballistic)
  Agent 47's signature sidearms. Essential for stealthy takedowns (silenced variants) or as a backup combat weapon. Various models with different stats (accuracy, damage, suppression level, magazine size).
• Submachine Guns (e.g., TAC-SMG, HX-10): Automatic Firearm (Close Quarters)
  Rapid-firing weapons effective at close range if stealth is broken. Can be found in levels or unlocked via mastery. Often available in silenced versions.
• Assault Rifles (e.g., Fusil G2, Shashka A33): Automatic/Semi-Auto Firearm (Mid Range)
  Powerful automatic rifles, generally less suited for stealth but highly effective in open combat. Found on guards or in specific locations.
• Shotguns (e.g., Bartoli 12G, Enram HV): Firearm (Close Quarters, High Damage)
  Devastating at close range, ideal for loud encounters or eliminating heavily armored targets quickly.
• Sniper Rifles (e.g., Sieger 300 Ghost, Jaeger 7 Lancer, Druzhina 34 Arctic): Long Range Firearm (Precision Assassination)
  Used for eliminating targets from extreme distances. Many variants offer different levels of suppression, zoom, and special properties (e.g., subsonic, armor-piercing). Often require assembly from parts smuggled in a briefcase.
• Fiber Wire: Melee (Silent Garrote)
  Agent 47's classic tool for silent, non-messy strangulation kills from behind. A starting item.
• Lethal Melee Weapons (Knives, Cleavers, Axes, Screwdrivers, etc.): Close Quarters (Lethal)
  Various sharp or blunt objects found in the environment or unlocked that can be used for lethal melee attacks or thrown for a lethal impact.
• Non-Lethal Melee Weapons (Hammers, Wrenches, Crowbars, Fish, Briefcase, etc.): Close Quarters (Non-Lethal Takedown)
  Numerous everyday objects that can be used to knock out NPCs silently from behind or in melee combat. Essential for non-lethal playthroughs and acquiring disguises.
• Poisons (Lethal Vial/Syringe, Emetic Vial/Syringe, Sedative Vial/Syringe): Consumable (Covert Elimination/Incapacitation)
  Can be used to contaminate food or drink, or directly injected. Lethal poison kills targets discreetly. Emetic poison makes them sick and seek a bathroom. Sedative poison knocks them out.
• Explosives (Remote/Proximity Mines, Breaching Charges, Explosive Devices - e.g., Rubber Duck, Golf Ball): Tactical/Area Denial/Distraction
  Various explosive devices for creating diversions, eliminating targets through 'accidents,' or breaching locked doors. Some are designed to be inconspicuous.
• Distraction Items (Coins, Various Throwable Objects): Utility (Stealth)
  Coins are a staple for luring NPCs or making them investigate a sound. Many other small objects can be thrown for similar purposes.
• Special Tools (Lockpick, Keycard Scrambler, Remote EMP Charge, Sieker 1 Emetic Dart Gun): Utility (Infiltration/Sabotage)
  Unlockable tools that aid in infiltration. Lockpicks open simple doors. Scramblers bypass electronic locks. EMP charges disable security devices. The Sieker 1 silently delivers emetic poison from a distance.

• No Equipable Armor System (Damage Mitigation): Agent 47 does not equip traditional armor pieces for direct damage reduction that can be swapped or upgraded. His survivability in combat relies on player skill in using cover, stealth, takedowns, and managing his health (which regenerates to a certain point, with full restoration often requiring finding specific items or being out of combat for a period). Some starting suits in Freelancer mode might offer a slight initial health advantage, but this is not a core armor system.
• Disguises (Stealth 'Armor'): The primary form of 'protection' in Hitman is the disguise system. Wearing an appropriate disguise allows Agent 47 to blend in with different groups of NPCs and access restricted areas without arousing immediate suspicion. Different disguises grant varying levels of access and may be scrutinized by specific 'Enforcer' NPCs. This system is about social stealth rather than direct damage mitigation.
• Cosmetic Suits: Players can unlock a vast array of cosmetic suits for Agent 47 to wear at the start of missions or change into. These are purely visual and do not provide any gameplay advantages or defensive stats. They are unlocked through Mastery, Challenges, Elusive Targets, or DLC.

• Functional Armor & Noble Attire: Players can likely equip a variety of clothing and armor, from practical combat gear to the fine clothes of a nobleman, which may affect how NPCs perceive and interact with them.

• Agent 47's Signature Suit (Black Suit, White Shirt, Red Tie): Agent 47's iconic default attire. While this is his primary look, players can unlock and choose to start missions in a vast array of other cosmetic suits.
• Unlockable Suits (Themed, Location-Specific, Challenge Rewards): A wide variety of cosmetic suits can be unlocked by completing challenges, achieving high Mastery Levels in locations, successfully eliminating Elusive Targets, or through DLC/Deluxe Editions. Examples include tactical gear, formal wear, casual outfits, humorous costumes, and suits inspired by previous Hitman games. These are purely visual.
• Disguises (In-Mission): A core gameplay mechanic. Agent 47 can incapacitate NPCs and take their outfits to use as disguises. Each disguise grants access to different areas of a level and changes how other NPCs react to 47. There are hundreds of unique disguises across all locations, from guard uniforms and waiter outfits to more outlandish costumes like a flamingo mascot or a scarecrow.
• Gloves (Often part of Suit Unlocks): Many unlockable suits come with specific glove designs, contributing to the overall aesthetic.
• Freelancer Mode Safehouse Customization: In Freelancer mode, players can spend Merces (in-game currency) to customize various areas of Agent 47's safehouse, including the kitchen, garage, living areas, and exterior, with different furniture, decorations, and themes. This doesn't directly affect 47's wearable clothing but adds a layer of personalization.

Progression operates on two layers. At the character level, players engage in a deep, multi-generational RPG system, forging alliances, cultivating rivalries, and even starting a family. At the domain level, players manage their settlement's economy, resources, and defenses, with a light population simulation where citizens have their own daily lives.

• No Player-Controlled Vehicles (General Traversal)
  Agent 47 primarily traverses mission locations on foot, utilizing stealth, disguises, and environmental navigation (climbing pipes, ledges, using ladders). There are no player-drivable cars, motorcycles, boats, or aircraft for general exploration within the sandbox levels.
• Contextual Vehicles (Used for Exits, Scripted Events, or as Environmental Elements): Various (Cars, Boats, Helicopters, Trains, etc.)
  Vehicles are present in many levels as environmental details, potential 'accident' kill opportunities (e.g., sabotaging a car), or as specific means of exfiltration once mission objectives are complete (e.g., escaping in a speedboat, helicopter, or car). Some mission stories might involve interacting with or briefly being inside a vehicle during a scripted sequence, but free-roam driving is not a feature.
• Fast Travel (Via Starting Locations / Unlocked Shortcuts - Within Mission Replays): Mission Start / Level Navigation Mechanic
  When replaying missions, players can choose different unlocked starting locations (often requiring specific disguises) to begin closer to certain objectives. Within levels, discovering and unlocking persistent shortcuts (like doors from the other side or kickable ladders) allows for faster navigation on subsequent attempts or during different approaches.

• Agent 47: Protagonist / ICA Assassin (Later Independent)
  The genetically engineered, master assassin. Known for his professionalism, precision, and ability to blend in using disguises. In this trilogy, he confronts his past and the organization that created him, Providence, while questioning his own purpose.
• Diana Burnwood: Ally / Handler (ICA, later Independent)
  Agent 47's long-time handler at the International Contract Agency (ICA). Provides mission briefings, intelligence, and moral guidance. Her relationship with 47 is central to the narrative, especially as they work against Providence.
• Lucas Grey (The Shadow Client / Subject 6): Ally / Former Antagonist / Fellow Clone
  A childhood friend and fellow genetically engineered operative from Dr. Ort-Meyer's facility. Initially an antagonist in Hitman (2016) seeking to destroy Providence, he becomes 47's key ally and friend in Hitman 2 and 3.
• Arthur Edwards (The Constant): Main Antagonist / Leader of Providence
  The enigmatic and highly intelligent leader of Providence, the secretive organization that secretly controls global affairs. He is the primary antagonist of the World of Assassination trilogy, manipulating events from the shadows.
• The Partners (Carl Ingram, Marcus Stuyvesant, Alexa Carlisle - Hitman 3 Targets): Antagonists / Leaders of Providence
  The three current leaders (Partners) of Providence, who become primary targets for 47 and Grey in Hitman 3 as they dismantle the organization.
• Olivia Hall: Ally / Hacker (Associate of Lucas Grey)
  A skilled hacker who works closely with Lucas Grey and later assists 47 and Diana in their fight against Providence.
• Various Targets (Across all three games): Assassination Objectives
  A vast array of individuals targeted by 47 throughout the World of Assassination trilogy, each with their own backstories, routines, and connections to the larger conspiracy or criminal enterprises.
• Freelancer Mode NPCs (Syndicate Leaders, Assassins, Lookouts, Suppliers): Procedurally Generated Targets & Support NPCs
  In Freelancer mode, targets and some support NPCs are procedurally generated with unique traits and appearances, creating diverse assassination challenges.

• Main Story Quests
  A cinematic campaign that follows the nobleman's journey to establish their legacy, where player choices have significant and lasting consequences.
• Domain Management
  The ongoing strategic objective to build, expand, and fortify your settlement, manage its economy, and protect it from threats.
• Sandbox Mode
  An endless mode available after the main campaign, allowing for unrestrained gameplay focused on expanding territory, waging war, and managing your domain.

• Campaign Missions (Dubai, Dartmoor, Berlin, Chongqing, Mendoza, Carpathian Mountains - Hitman 3 Base Game)
  A series of story-driven assassination contracts set in diverse global locations. Each mission presents Agent 47 with one or more primary targets to eliminate, along with optional objectives (e.g., retrieving an item, specific assassination methods). Levels are large sandboxes offering multiple approaches and high replayability.
• Hitman 1 & Hitman 2 Campaign Missions (Via World of Assassination Access Passes)
  If the player owns or purchases access to Hitman (2016) and Hitman 2 (2018) content, all their respective campaign missions (e.g., Paris, Sapienza, Marrakesh, Bangkok, Colorado, Hokkaido from H1; Hawke's Bay, Miami, Santa Fortuna, Mumbai, Whittleton Creek, Isle of Sgàil from H2) become playable within the Hitman 3 (World of Assassination) platform, utilizing its updated engine and mechanics.
• Escalation Contracts
  Multi-stage contracts with progressively increasing difficulty and often complex or restrictive conditions (e.g., specific disguises, kill methods, time limits, added complications). Each stage builds upon the last. Some are part of Deluxe content or themed DLCs (Seven Deadly Sins).
• Elusive Targets (Time-Limited)
  Special, time-limited missions where players have only one chance to assassinate a unique target with a specific backstory. If the player fails or the target escapes, the contract is lost permanently for that run (though Elusive Targets often get reactivated in batches later). Successfully completing them unlocks unique suits.
• Contracts Mode (User-Generated Content)
  Players can create their own assassination contracts within existing mission locations by marking NPCs as targets and setting specific kill conditions or disguise requirements. These contracts can then be shared online for other players to attempt, fostering a community of challenge creators.
• Sniper Assassin Missions (Haven Island, Hantu Port, Siberia - from Hitman 2)
  Dedicated sniper missions where Agent 47 must eliminate multiple targets and their bodyguards from a fixed sniper perch within a time limit, often by creating chain reactions or 'accident' kills using his sniper rifle. Can be played solo or in online co-op (co-op functionality might vary in WoA).
• Freelancer Mode Campaigns (Roguelike)
  A single-player roguelike mode where Agent 47 takes on campaigns against various criminal syndicates. Each campaign consists of several missions leading to a showdown with a syndicate leader. Players must manage resources (Merces), acquire gear from suppliers, and risk losing non-Safehouse items upon failure. Features a customizable Safehouse as a persistent hub.
• Featured Contracts
  Curated selections of community-created contracts highlighted by IO Interactive, often with specific themes or challenging conditions.

Available in Standard Edition and Deluxe Edition. Deluxe Edition included Deluxe Escalation Contracts, Deluxe suits and items, digital soundtrack, digital 'World of Hitman' book, and director commentary. Pre-orders often included the 'Trinity Pack' (suits and briefcases themed after Hitman 1, 2, & 3). Hitman 3 eventually became 'Hitman: World of Assassination,' bundling Hitman 1 GOTY Access Pass and Hitman 2 Standard Access Pass for all owners, effectively making it the definitive platform for the trilogy.

Major post-launch content includes the 'Seven Deadly Sins' collection (seven themed DLC packs with unique Escalation Contracts, suits, and items). The 'Freelancer' mode was a significant free update, adding a roguelike campaign with persistent progression and customizable safehouse. Numerous free Elusive Targets, Escalation Contracts, and Featured Contracts have been added. The game also evolved into 'Hitman: World of Assassination,' integrating content from the previous two games for owners.

• Q: What is Legacy of Valor?
  A: It is an upcoming indie game that uniquely blends a deep, open-world RPG with a comprehensive city-building and management simulation, all from the perspective of a medieval nobleman.
• Q: Is it a single-player or multiplayer game?
  A: It can be played both as a single-player experience and with friends in online co-op.
• Q: What games is it similar to?
  A: It is most often compared to Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord for its blend of RPG action and strategy, and to Manor Lords for its detailed medieval settlement building.
• Q: Who is making the game?
  A: The game is currently being created by a single solo developer, Filip Husák, who is based in the Czech Republic.

• Q: What is Hitman: World of Assassination?
  A: Hitman: World of Assassination is the current branding for Hitman 3, which now serves as a platform to access the content from all three games in the trilogy (Hitman (2016), Hitman 2 (2018), and Hitman 3 (2021)) within a single, unified interface, provided the player owns the respective Access Passes or base games.
• Q: How does the Disguise system work?
  A: Agent 47 can incapacitate NPCs and take their outfits. Wearing a disguise allows him to blend in with that group of NPCs and access areas restricted to that role (e.g., a guard disguise allows access to security rooms). However, certain 'Enforcer' NPCs (marked with a white dot) can see through specific disguises if 47 gets too close or stays in their line of sight.
• Q: What are Mission Stories?
  A: Mission Stories are guided opportunities within each level that present unique and often elaborate ways to get close to and eliminate targets. They are discovered by finding intel or overhearing conversations and can lead to cinematic or 'accident' kills.
• Q: What is the 'Silent Assassin' rating?
  A: Silent Assassin is the highest rating achievable on a mission. It requires eliminating only the target(s), no bodies found (unless it was an accident kill or they were hidden), not being caught on camera (or destroying the evidence), and not being spotted committing any illegal actions. Achieving this rating often unlocks specific challenges and rewards.
• Q: What is Freelancer mode?
  A: Freelancer is a free, single-player roguelike mode added to Hitman: World of Assassination. Players take on campaigns against criminal syndicates, earning Merces (currency) to buy gear and upgrade a customizable safehouse. Failure on a mission can result in losing collected (non-Safehouse) gear for that campaign, adding high stakes.
• Q: Are there different ways to kill targets?
  A: Yes, a hallmark of the Hitman series is the immense player freedom in how to eliminate targets. This can range from direct confrontation (though often difficult), to stealthy melee or silenced pistol kills, to elaborate 'accident' kills (e.g., dropping a chandelier, poisoning food, sabotaging equipment), using sniper rifles, or exploiting unique environmental opportunities.

Powered by IO Interactive's Glacier Engine, Hitman 3 showcases highly detailed and atmospheric sandbox locations from around the world. It features impressive lighting, reflections (especially with ray tracing), dense crowds, and detailed character models. Each location has a distinct visual identity and ambiance. Ray tracing for reflections and shadows was added in a post-launch update on PC and current-gen consoles.

Original score composed by Niels Bye Nielsen, featuring tense, atmospheric, and cinematic orchestral pieces that adapt to gameplay situations (stealth, combat, discovery). Sound design is crucial for stealth, with distinct audio cues for footsteps, guard patrols, conversations (for intel), and environmental hazards. Weapon sounds are impactful.

Features a clean and minimalistic HUD. Important information like objectives, suspect identification (Instinct mode), and interaction prompts are displayed contextually. The mini-map shows NPC locations and points of interest. Menus for inventory, mission planning, challenges, mastery, and contracts are accessible. Instinct mode highlights targets, interactable objects, and guard routes through walls.

Offers a range of accessibility options, including customizable controls (PC), extensive subtitle and caption customization, options for aim assist, UI scaling, colorblind modes, options to reduce visual clutter or demanding effects, and various gameplay toggles for difficulty and interaction prompts.
