Hitman 3 Is Now An Epic Games Store Exclusive

First game will be free next week though.

Hitman 3

IO Interactive have today announced that Hitman 3 will be an Epic Games Store exclusive, meaning that if you want to play the game on PC, the EGS is the only place you’ll be able to do it. Fortunately, mastery progress made on the previous two games, along with the locations, will still carry over to the third game, so don’t worry about missing out on years of assassination because you have to switch to a new launcher.

Hakan Abrak, CEO of IO Interactive, explained the exclusive decision in a press release with the following statement: “Self-publishing Hitman 3 is a big step for IO Interactive in achieving our highly ambitious goals as an independent studio. Furthermore, this partnership with Epic has given us the freedom to create the game exactly as we imagined, for our fans and for our community uncompromised.”

This news comes the same day that IO Interactive have revealed a brand new location that players will be taking their assassination skills to, as you explore the Thornbridge Manor in Dartmoor, England. Also announced was that Hitman (2016) will be one of the free games that the Epic Games Store offer each week.
