We already know that Agent 47 will be infiltrating a skyscraper in Dubai and a country estate in England, but what of the other locations Hitman 3 will visit? A big part of the series’ appeal is the virtual tourism aspect, and in addition to Chongqing in China, developer IO Interactive has revealed the remaining locations fans can anticipate in the title: Berlin (Germany), Mendoza (Argentina), and the Carpathian Mountains (Romania).
“Head to the outskirts of Berlin, a city known for its fairytales, vibrant style, and chaotic nightlife,” the studio’s blog post reveals. “Whether you’re looking for a place to reflect and recuperate or want to experience the dizzying adrenaline rush of an epic rave, Berlin will help you find both of those things and everything in between.”
Meanwhile, Mendoza is described as the “perfect place to take in the beautiful sights and acquired tastes of Argentina”. The studio explains: “From the sloping hills to the modern vineyards, there’s plenty of opportunity to explore.” It’s keeping a lid on Romania, though, presumably because it’s the final mission in the game. Those of you who have played Hitman 2 will know that it’s a particularly important location to the plot, and will probably have an inkling about where this is going.

After the vibrant colours of Hitman 2, the tone generally seems quite dark for this one. I guess the story is going to be much darker, too.
I’ve never played a Hitman game. Is the deluxe version worth getting?
@Aslanmagic You should look into getting Hitman 2 and Hitman 1 while they're on sale as you'll be able to import all the levels into Hitman 3.
Is there a narrative that runs through these games? If so I might pick up 1&2 as they are a bargain!
@get2sammyb Done
Would have nicer it if the title and subheading didn't list every single location in the game. I prefer finding out these things as I'm playing the game.
@MightyDemon82 There is!
Isn't 47 from Romania?
@RogerRoger @get2sammyb Cheers, I'll grab them now before I forget!
romania, eh? that does interest me.. munții carpați is a beautiful spot.. plenty of gorges and mountain passes for some sniping possibilies. the series never really appealed to me much before though.. seems like the gameplay mechanic might get a bit frustrating.
i'd be getting the native ps5 disc version if i was to get it, but can't seem to find how the previous games will integrate with that version.
@MightyDemon82
The series has never been much for an overarching narrative. It's really about putting you into a large environment and saying 'okay here is your target or targets, kill them however you see fit'.
It's beauty is in the abundant freedom and chaos you can cause.
