It may not be right to post this here since it is not an in-game problem, but I will post it here as well, just in case.
“HITMAN 3 - Makeshift Pack,” “HITMAN 3 - Street Art Pack,” and “Trinity Pack” did not show up in my searches at the Microsoft Store in Japan.
“HITMAN 3 - Makeshift Pack,” “HITMAN 3 - Street Art Pack,” will be available for purchase by jumping on the in-game store.
but, ”Trinity Pack” is not available at the Microsoft Store in Japan.
I believe there was a patch note this month for the Japanese Microsoft Store, but it still seems incomplete.

Location: The Sarajevo Six Campaign
Description: In the TS6 gameplay, nothing but several lines of challenge strings gets localized into Simplified Chinese. As for mission briefing and Diana’s openings, of course no. This annoying fact applies to some ETs. I’ve sent a ticket in Player Support site even in January or Feb, but till today nothing changes. I know those part is a ‘pre-H3’ problem, but why can Traditional Chinese and many other languages’ localization do better? Really wish an update here. No hostility. Just hollering.
Steps to reproduce: Simplified Chinese localization strings missing in the files, for no men intending to fix it before its release.
Frequency: Historical legacy.
Platform: Xbox One
Location: Hokkaido
Description: After using an EMP to hack a door, it says Y to Open, but will not open
Steps to reproduce:
Start the game
Load the Hokkaido mission
Place EMP on or near a hackable door (or drop)
Trigger the EMP
Attempt to open the door
Frequency: Intermittent, but frequently. Proximity to the door is not relevant.

Description:
Diana will only introduce the target on the very first play through of a level, and will be completely silent when the target appears on any subsequent playthroughs. This also happens when reloading a save from before they were introduced in the level, even if the mission wasnt completed or failed.
Steps to reproduce:
Frequency: (Did it happen once, or lots of times, and does it ALWAYS happen?)
Always happens. This happens with Hitman 2 as well and seems to be tied to the game saves somehow. Reloading a save without completing or failing the mission doesn’t help. The lines are a one-and-done
This was like my favorite feature when it was introduced in Hitman 2016, I hope its able to be fixed in some manner. Thank you
Not a bug. There was a patch somewhere along the way that made it so the game “knows” when the line has been played at it won’t play it again for a week (I think). That way you’re not constantly hearing the same line over and over if you’re playing the same mission.

I play on an XBOX one X. I have NEVER been able to pick up the fuse in the garage in freelancer or play the stocks. I have deleted the base game and reinstslled it 4 times. There have been several bug fixes that were supposed to fix this issue. They have not. I dont understand it and am EXTREMELY FRUSTRATED. I PAID for this game $60 and have bought all expansion. I feel I should be able to play this game to the FULLEST. I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY THIS ISSUE HAS NOT BEEN FIXED. CAN SOMEONE PLEASE ANSWER THIS QUESTION.

Ah, that’s incredibly disappointing tbh, but thank you for the response. I’m not sure why it couldn’t have just been made a toggle like a lot of other “QoL” options. It was weirdly one of my favorite things about the new games. At least now I can stop trying to look for solutions to it and just save wipe regularly with mods for the Mastery unlocks.
Platform: PC - Steam
Location: Hokkaido
Description: The guard in the downstairs bathroom no longer receives priority when the toilet is tampered with in one of the stalls. All of the patient NPCs in that room will be the first to investigate, meaning that in order to get the guard’s disguise, the player needs to either be a bit sloppy as Agent 47, or cheese the AI. Also, all NPCs will now only look at the toilet monitor instead of checking the toilet itself first, whereas in Hitman 2016 they would play the first half of the checking/kicking animation thats used on the generators. In this stall, it’s clearly set up so that the player can subdue an NPC after leaving the closet without anyone else in the larger room seeing it. Both of these issues make it much harder to cleanly get a disguise from this guard and it seems to be an intended area for the player to start infiltration.
The main problem though is every other NPC checking the toilet before the guard budges.

Description: The prestige objective Arrange a meeting cannot be completed. I knocked out a non-target suspect, acquired the correct type of phone, and set up the meeting. However, the prestige objective didn’t mark as complete. This occurred multiple times, regardless of the location.
Platform: PC (Steam)
Location: Freelancer (Hokkaido in this case)
Description: Prestige Objective “Arrange Meeting” not completing in spite of (four) phones placed on the floor [1].
Frequency: At least once [twice as of edit]. To be explored.

Edit:
Hokkaido freelancer again. The leader was conscious on his way to the arranged meeting at the time of the picture [2].
I took a phone back to the cable car and activated it to arrange a meeting [3]. Without any suspects conscious and the leader dead it completed the prestige objective! Might be location dependent.
PS5 and Steam
Hawkes Bay - The Politician ET
Unlike every other exit in the game where the final frame of the exit cutscene becomes the background of the “Mission Complete” screen; if you use the special car exit on The Politician ET, the background instead becomes that of the starting location.
Yes it’s a nitpicky bug, but a bug nonetheless that differs from the rest of the game.
Not sure if it’s my controller or something other people are having but I keep being knocked out from running long distances like I’m not holding the button anymore, this even happens when put on toggle so I’m wondering if it is a bug or update. I’m on PS5.
Edit: After further testing it is only Hitman I’m having this issue on, the button works fine for all other games that require me to press it and hold it for long durations. Therefore I’m sure it’s a weird bug or change affecting movement.
Steam
ICA Facility - Guided Training
When playing Guided Training, this NPC now has the bandage around his head that previously was only there in previous games when you advance to Freeform Training - which ruins the joke that during Guided Training this ICA actor was genuinely injured as you were completing the tutorial despite Diana assuring you that all weapons are simulated.
PS5
Freelancer
Another nitpicky report - the subtitles for the “How to Play” video in the game for Freelancer spell the currency used for the mode as “Mercers” which is inconsistent with how they’re spelt everywhere else as “Merces”.
Platform: PC (Epic)
Location: Freelancer mansion (basement?)
I’ve had this issue since forever (probably ever since the launch of the Freelancer patch?), where the screen blinks black one time after returning from a successful Freelancer mission. I can’t say I have encountered this outside of the Freelancer mode.
At 4 seconds in:
Any ideas why this happens? Anyone else also getting this every time?
