I have also noticed this to happen every now and then, but I had no idea what seemed to trigger it. ![]()
I would love it if it was every now and then. It’s been nearly always for the last six months or so.
Platform: PS5 digital
Location: Dubai, The Ascensionist
Description: At the added frisk point at the beginning of the level, the far right guard won’t let 47 pass after he frisks him and will insist on frisking him a second time, after which he will finally let 47 through.
Frequency: Seems to happen 95% of the time, no matter where you start the frisk and no matter how quickly you move through the zone afterwards.
(Also note the save icon that’s still not disappearing…
)
PS5 and PC
All locations
When 47 is holding a briefcase in one hand and is holding either the camera or a dart gun in the other hand, when you stand close behind another NPC the game will incorrectly show an “Eliminate” prompt. When you attempt to activate the prompt, 47 will just subdue them with the briefcase revealing that the the prompt should’ve said “Subdue” instead.
Idk if this bug also links with the camera and the eliminate thing, but if you hold the camera infront of a guard, they will say for you to put your weapon away.
It ain’t a weapon.
All locations
On Xbox one S
I remember reading that the camera is just a reskinned legal gun, which would explain that.
Platform: PC
Location: House built on sand
Description: There is only one of the two people in the Fortune Teller House can be vomited. While the other one just stands there forever.
Frequency: Always

Occasionally they will both go to (the same) toilet. About 33% of the time
PS4, ET the politician.
You can easily tell who the real politician is by the music played when she is sufficiently close to you.
Well, maybe that’s just my bad luck, but it’s 100% to me.
Xbox Series X - Miami - Tortoise and Hare contract
One of the targets consistently spawns outside the map To the northeast corner. I’ve been able to get him with a sniper from the building there, but wtf?
Not a bug. That’s Moses Lee - there is a car on the racetrack which represents him until the race ends and he “gets out of the car”, the NPC will then move onto the map.
Platform: PC
Location: Haven Island
Description: The sink near the laundry room won’t kill other NPC after the water gets electriferous by the taser.

Santa Fortuna (H2 in H3) - Xbox Series X
In the back of the Cocoa platantion area right by the passage to the mansion there’s a shack with the helicopter pilot(?) inside. There’s a wood covered window on that which looks like it should be removable like several in H3 (like the shack where Agent Smith is locked up on Ambrose). No prompt of any kind though. Just seems odd now knowing about the others.
p.s. Why isn’t Paris - Holiday Hoarders an option for contracts? Looks like all the other odd map variants got added to Contracts mode except that.
p.p.s. Why can’t all the fake NPC crowds on H1 and H2 maps in H3 have proper markers etc now on current gen?
Idk why they never added the ability without having a gander first
because that would be a cool & sensible QoL change to Hitman Contracts mode
because that means every single map that has loads (eg Mumbai) would be really bad for performance, since they haven’t said there dropping older generation consoles
Doesn’t matter. Newer consoles have their own specific versions. It should be a feature for the current gen versions + PC. Sick of the old hardware holding back obvious stuff.
p.s. The cocaine machine in Santa Fortuna still be limited to making 3 bricks is BS too.
Yeah but that’s limiting there sales for older consoles (and sales as a whole), that’s making one platform (or version of platform) redundant, and IOI have somehow made Hitman 3 still available on the older platforms because they don’t add virtually useless or impossible things for all the players on every platform
and you’re missing the fucking point. The newer console versions offer graphics/fps improvements anyway. Making the fake NPCs proper map dots fits right in there.
