The Hitman 3 Winter Roadmap 2021 has been revealed, showcasing the launch of two new pieces of permanent seasonal content, the return of many Elusive Contracts, and more. And best of all, it starts today!

Hitman 3 launched earlier this year as an Epic Games Store exclusive. While some players were concerned that they would have to re-buy earlier levels, IO Interactive promised that that wouldn't be the case. Since then, it debuted a bunch of post-launch content and six new locations, ultimately contributing to IO Interactive's strongest year to date. Now, a new batch of content has been revealed in the Hitman 3 Winter Roadmap 2021!

What's Coming in the Hitman 3 Winter Roadmap 2021?

The Hitman 3 Winter Roadmap 2021 promises two new pieces of permanent seasonal content, the return of many Elusive Targets, a chance to play in Dubai, and two sets of Curated Contracts as highlighted on ResetEra.

Holiday Hoarders and The Hokkaido Snow Festival

First up is the Holiday Hoarders event which is available to play right now. Anyone who owns the Hitman 3 free starter pack can enjoy this permanent addition of seasonal content featuring a challenging mission to take down two highly-dangerous burglars throughout December 2021. Play this event and you'll unlock the "Santa 47" suit.

Early next year, the Hitman 3 Winter Roadmap will delight players with the Hokkaido Snow Festival starting on January 3, 2022. All Hitman 3 owners can enjoy this permanent event which allows Agent 47 to throw snowballs and unlock winter-themed items until February 4, 2022. Playing this event will unlock the Icepick and the Hot Snow Festival Suit.

The Return of Elusive Targets

Starting December 3, an Elusive Target will return every Friday for a one-week period. Here's the schedule:

  • The Ascensionist - December 3-9, 2021
  • The Collector - December 10-16, 2021
  • The Iconoclast - December 17-23, 2021
  • The Liability -  December 24-30, 2021
  • The Heartbreaker - December 31, 2021-January 6, 2022

Starting now and until December 5, 2021, all Hitman 3 Free Starter Pack players will be able to play Dubai for free.

Hitman 3 Year 2 Content

Finally, the Hitman 3 Winter Roadmap 2021 teased a bit of the Hitman 3 Year 2 Content which includes ray-tracing and VR coming to PC and the debut of the Elusive Target Arcade, all of which is coming in Early 2022. Naturally, players can look forward to new maps, new storylines, and more; an extended look at this new content will debut early next year.

The Hitman 3 Winter Roadmap 2021 has laid out a ton of fun things for people to enjoy over the next couple of months. If you want to get in on the fun, you can get started with Hitman 3 on PC, consoles, and Google Stadia by picking up the Free Starter Pack via its official website; otherwise, the base game will run you a cool $59.99 or your regional equivalent.
