Hitman - 3.240.0 - September 2025 Patch Notes

Anyone has the issue starting from the recent update when you have constant error message on exiting a contract on the stage where you should be directed to the home screen of the game?
This error message leaves no choice except of alt+f4 the game (force ending a process) at least on the Seach Contracts tab (not ID search). I have no issues on Featured, Trending and rest.
But when I go to Search Contracts, find a contract, play it and then exiting to home screen this error appears.
I guess it’s something to do with the mods I’m using or this Simple Mod tool, but want to confirm if I’m alone struggling.
I’m on Steam, just in case

I don’t know if anyone’s noticed, but the ballers now have an eighth round. When the display shows your magazine down to zero rounds, you can shoot one more time before you have to reload. When you look at your inventory, the magazine capacity shows “8”.

EDIT: Just noticed that other guns are doing the same thing. Maybe it’s all of them.

I’ve tried Silverballer, Goldballer, Cherry Blossom Baller and El Matador and all of them behaved normally. Where exactly did you see this and which platform are you on? I’m on Steam.

Given the minimum character requirement, I hereby answer you in the form of a complete sentence that I am playing Hitman on Playstation Four.

Maybe it is specific to Playstation then, which makes it even weirder.

If you load an old save file it underflows your ammo or something & you get… a lot more than 1 extra shot.

Before anyone asks, I have no idea what I was doing for a full hour on casual mode Dubai without killing any targets, this save is from 2022.

I did notice it while I was playing from a save file, but only after this most recent update. I use the save file all the time.

Not sure if it has been mentioned but,
After the update, bringing driftwood with you in Freelancer no longer spawns it in a briefcase.

I’m really hoping this gets fixed one day. 47’s signature suit with gloves is my go to suit, but it’s so annoying when say 47 is covering behind a wall and his suit is appearing through his tie.

Hope this gets fixed one day!

Check this video out at this timestamp. Is this what’s happening to you?

Ok, my patience is wearing thinner than a wafer at the Planck scale. This bug or glitch or whatever you want to call it that has taken hold of the game since the patch is unacceptable, to a level beyond any other screw up that has happened with the game now in its 9 1/2 year lifecycle.

The controller vibration being triggered when it shouldn’t be goes beyond simply equipping a pistol; it happens sometimes while crouching, sometimes while climbing, sometimes while vaulting. It also seems to have perpetually become super-sensitive to things that might have made a slight vibration in the past - say, a train going by. Playing Chongqing now is an absolute nightmare. The vibration going off every 30 seconds and lasting anywhere from 5 to 10 seconds, regardless of my location on the map.

This is severely pissing me off. @Combatglue, I don’t know who needs to be talked to, but they need to get an earful on this immediately. I’m sorry, but there is simply no polite of describing this other than what it is: bullshit. This is no mere issue of the game where a status is voided or clipping occurs or an invisible wall has cropped up - this is an issue that is actually affecting the real, physical world. The game cannot be played now without encountering some form of action that triggers the remote vibration when it absolutely should not, at least on Xbox, I don’t know what the effect is for other systems. But this is reaching a point where, for the first time, I genuinely don’t want to play the game, not because of the game itself, but what it’s actually doing to my hands. The only current fix is to deactivate the vibration option, and requiring such a thing to avoid this problem is not a viable solution at all. It has been 2 weeks now; this needed to be fixed 3 weeks ago. Please run this up the chain with the highest priority marker available and get this thing fixed.

I always play games with vibration off, and when this started happening after the latest patch I just went in the game settings and toggled vibration off. Sorted.

I think the patch must have auto-toggled it on cause it was definitely off on my game pre-patch.
