The image coloring is off because the HDR in this game is funky
Not only German, though.
I suppose, this is in every loc. Cause Russian loc has the same problem.

Summary
Platform:
PS5
Location:
Challenge＆career
Description:
The word “One too many” in Challenge is not translated into my language and is displayed in English.
The new item “Coctail Shaker” is also not translated into my language and is displayed in English, both in the item name and description.
There have been many translation omissions in the HITMAN updates since the beginning of this year.
I think it would be better to check the language translation once before implementation.
Steps to reproduce:
“One too many”
- View the list of challenges for Haven Island in the Career section of the main menu.
- The newly added challenge “One too many” has not been translated.
“Coctail Shaker”
- View melee weapons in your inventory from the Career menu.
- The newly added item “Cocktail Shaker” has not been translated.
Frequency:
always.

That doesn’t even make sense happening, IOI is really putting bugs on purpose.

The people working on the PS5/PSVR 2 build of the game have no idea what the hell they’re doing. There is many PS5-exclusive bugs at the moment that are quite random and only exist due to complete negligence. ie earlier in the year they accidentally disabled a long list of sound effects/music in the game.
The sad thing for PC players is that all of this is a ticking time bomb for when they release the PSVR 2 mode on PC.

The books in the basement of JANUS’s house existed separately from the books in the garden.
Pulling the books in the garden had no effect on the books in the basement, and vice versa.

Location: The Replicator ET Arcade Level 2, Chongqing
Description: I was instantly spotted when picking up a gun when a guard was also going to pick it up
Steps to reproduce:
- Start the game
- Load the Replicator (Level 2)
- Go up to a guard
- Drop a gun in front of him and run away
- When the guard goes to pick it up, run back and try to pick it up at the same time
- You get spotted
Frequency: Not sure, may also happen anywhere

Platform: Xbox Series X (Digital)
Location: Freelancer (or possibly anywhere else)
Description: When I was playing freelancer, I was about to play a mission, and when I was loading, it took a bit longer than expected and I got a weird error message saying the contract is not available which is strange and it put me back to the main menu. I was then able to go back into freelancer and play the mission and when I complete it, I didn’t get a mission rating (Silent ICA Assassin or Melon Man for example) It was blank. I then did another mission and like last time the rating was blank. I then went to contracts mode to do some testing and while I can see the Silent Assassin rating perfectly, the other ratings are blank. I then close the game then went back and the other ratings are still blank. I then turn off my console and as of now I have yet to turn it back on so hopefully this can get resolved the next time I play but if not then that’s going to be a big problem and hopefully it will get restored in the next patch/maintenance.
Steps to reproduce:
- Launch a Freelancer mission
- Get an error screen saying the contract is not available
- Go back into Freelancer and complete the mission
- See the results screen and there should be no rating
Frequency: This only happened once but hopefully it’s not persistent.
EDIT: I turned my console back on and thankfully the issue is now resolved. Here’s hoping it does not happen again.

Approaching a target can intermittently cause their red target glow in instinct to disappear. It never returns unless you restart. Makes the mode quite unplayable.

New patch, same bugs.
Platform: PS5 & PSVR2
Digital + disc
Location: All Hitman 3 Locations
Description: “SAVING” is stuck on the screen on every Hitman 3 map. This is a PS5 exclusive bug that has been in the game for over 4 years now and never been acknowledged. Never been mentioned in the known issues.
Steps to reproduce:
-
Start the game on PS5
-
Load up any Hitman 3 mission
-
Saving forever
Frequency: Always. Every time. Saving.
This is issue is now ten times worse on PSVR2 because its floating constantly in your view. Absolutely baffling that you expect people to pay for this and completely disrespectful to your PlayStation players that you continue to ignore the issue. Unacceptable
Why do you refuse to fix this bug? If you are incapable of fixing it, it would be far easier to just publicly come out and say it. Game development is difficult, communication is not.

It’s not just Contracts Mode, it’s also in Freelancer (on PS5) and it’s not just the red/purple glow, their outline also disappears making it impossible to see them at all through walls or whatever.
Makes keeping track of Leaders in Hardcore a lot more annoying…

And in regular story.

Another reason for me to leave the game for another 10 years…
Seriously, is this still Hitman? Sounds more like Bugman to me. I know we have a bug exterminator NPC but goddammit.
