Hitman 3 Launch Exclusively on EGS; Store Will Give Away First Part

Hitman 3 on PC will be available only on Epic Games Store for the first 12 months. The store will also give away the first part of the game for free as part of its weekly special offer.

Epic takes another franchise for itself.

IO Interactive, the studio responsible for the Hitman series, has officially announced that its upcoming title will be a temporary exclusive (for 12 months) on Epic Games Store (at least its PC version). This is mainly dictated by the policy of Tim Sweeney's company, which was to ensure full publishing independence for the developers. Due to the cooperation of these two entities a special promo week was also announced. From August 27 to September 3 we will be able to get Hitman from 2016 for free.

The above information was disclosed together with the new location from the third installment, i.e. English town of Dartmoor, inspired by the detective stories of Edgar Allan Poe and Arthur Conan Doyle. We can see the various nooks and crannies of the map in the video we have posted above. Hitman 3 will make its launch in January, next year not only on PC, but also on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One and Xbox Series X.

His adventure with journalism began with a personal blog, the name of which is no longer worth quoting. Then he interpreted Iranian dramas and the Joker, writing for cinematography journal, which, sadly, no longer exists. His writing credentials include a degree in film studies, but his thesis was strictly devoted to video games. He has been writing for Gamepressure since March 2020, first writing a lot about movies, then in the newsroom, and eventually, he became a specialist in everything. He currently edits and writes articles and features. A long-time enthusiast of the most bizarre indie games and arthouse cinema. He idolizes surrealism and postmodernism. He appreciates the power of absurdity. Which is probably why he also tried soccer refereeing for 2 years (with so-so results). He tends to over-philosophize, so watch out.
