Comments:

Hitman: World of Assassination is essentially a rebranded version of Hitman 3 with the campaigns of Hitman 1 & 2 included as well.

The main campaigns for all 3 Hitman games are fully playable from disc with no additional downloads required. This marks the first time that Hitman 2 & 3’s campaigns can be fully played without downloads.

Included on disc:

HITMAN 1:
- Entire main campaign
- Patient Zero campaign
- Bonus missions
- Sarajevo Six DLC is NOT included

HITMAN 2:
- Entire main campaign
- Season pass is NOT included

HITMAN 3:
- Entire main campaign
- Ambrose Island
- Seven Deadly Sins DLC is NOT included

Includes a download code for the PS4 version as the PS4 version is the only way to access the PSVR1 mode (There is no PSVR2 support)

The story modes for all 3 games are playable offline but offline functionality is quite limited outside of that. You will need internet to level up, unlock items for repeat playthroughs, to complete challenges, and to play game modes such as Sniper Assassin, Freelancer, Escalation, and Contracts.

Save files made while offline cannot be used in online mode and vice versa.

Save data for this physical release of World of Assassination is separate from the original Hitman 3, so any save data from Hitman 3 will not carry over, however any trophies you earned in Hitman 3 will carry over.

During installation, every level except for the ICA Training and Dubai levels will be locked with the game telling you an update is required to access them. If you wait for the game to fully install from the disc that message will go away and the rest of the levels will unlock without any updates being required.

Experienced one crash, some minor framerate and pop-in issues, as well as a few minor HUD bugs that went away after a checkpoint restart.

Languages supported (You may have to manually install them in the “Manage Game Content” menu to access them): English, French, Italian, German, Spanish, Russian, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese
