It’s $50 USD, 50 EUR, £45 GBP.
Which is admittedly fairly reasonable. But still.
Also, does this anniversary edition contain the Deluxe Edition content @Combatglue ?

Well, they lost one potential customer: me.
Isn’t the point of a “celebration” to pay respects to existing fans? Really embarrassing considering how other franchises/ games are treated with remakes/ remasters when they reach such an anniversary.
Wait, really?? Not even 60$USD? That’s pretty nifty for Full WOA, plus four CelebrETs DLCs, and physical collector’s fluff like the art card and special box.
I’d have honestly expected them to push for 80$USD, if it’s some sort of collectors item.
Very rare IOI pricing win?? At least compared to how they’ve handled a lot of WOA in the last few years!
It depends on what it contains. I’m not convinced it contains the deluxe content.
I thought so too but it’s double the price for just an art thing and some micro dlcs (usually £8)
Looks like its just updated boxart/disc for the 2023 PS5-only WoA release, which didn’t include Deluxe content.
Shoot, good point… Smh they really can’t make an “Everything” edition?? Is that so hard??
(I wonder if it has the Hitman 2 Gold DLC, with New York and Maldives, that’s also “WOA Deluxe” too isnt it?)
Only available in the USA?
As of right now, yes, Haven and New York are Deluxe exclusive.
Not likely, since the image variant combatglue posted in the original post has the PEGI rating logo on the box.
Given how IO’s preorder page for 007 covers Europe/UK/US/Canada, I assume it will be available there. But IO is now acting like Australia and New Zealand doesn’t exist.
HITMAN’s 25th anniversary
NO PC RELEASE
As a collector, not really convinced by this anniversary box…
My biggest issue is the fact that the game is entitled “25th Anniversary Box”, meaning that they speak about the whole series of Hitman, from C47 to the current WoA. And the only element related to the previous game is the lenticular card… Pretty weak to celebrate this beautiful franchise.
I just want to be able to play Hitman: Contracts on PS4/PS5. Is that too much to ask? lol
What even is the point of this? So it can be bought out and then resold on eBay for 4x the price.
Well technically its a Box that has pictures of C47-WoA on it, so no lies here
“Hey guys, it’s the 25th anniversary of Hitman so what better way to celebrate than to re release the same game you’ve been playing for the last 10 years and completely neglect the previous entries that you actually want to play”
It just doesn’t speak 25th Anniversary for the franchise outside a lenticular glorified postcard.
Once again missed opportunity to celebrate the series by incorporating a 25th Anniversary Content Pack.
Hear me out.
Imagine an exclusive location that is an amalgamation of iconic locations and theming from the series.
Like imagine the Hotel Gallard Pool in the same building with the stage from Death Of A Showman. It doesn’t have to be a canonical mission/map. It’s just a fun what if scenarios where you get to assassinate a bunch of old targets from the series.
Make the mastery track a bunch of legacy items and unlocks where every five levels unlocks a new iconic suit from the series.
It’s just a big missed opportunity here
Including the Deluxe Pack so that at least owners could play the Deluxe Escalations, which are homages to the past games, would’ve been a no-brainer I would’ve thought. And/or a code for the Blood Money/Absolution PS4 releases.
Apparently not.
