Description:
In the new Freeform Training challenge “Initiate’s First Speedrun,” I completed the objective “Clear within 2 minutes using only the suit” as required, but the challenge did not mark as completed.
Additionally, even when performing wire kills with no one else around the target, I inexplicably lose Silent Assassin status.
Using Instinct to scan the area reveals no orange NPCs.
On multiple occasions, NPCs were detected in locations that seemed impossible to see from my position.
Steps to reproduce:
- “Initiate’s First Speedrun” fails to unlock
- Complete the mission in under 2 minutes wearing only the suit.
- The challenge fails to unlock despite meeting the conditions.
- Wirekills get detected despite no one being present
- Use the Panic state to lure Ritter into his office.
- Perform a wirekill on Ritter in his office.
- The crime is somehow detected even though no one is around.
Frequency:
Challenge not completing: 1 time.
Wire kills: Every time.

Diana comments each time the number of infected rises, but all these lines remain untranslated.
Steps to reproduce:
- Outfit description
- Set the language to Japanese. (Probably any language other than English.)
- In the Contagion arcade’s planning screen, view the details for “The Urban Maverick”.
- The description for “The Urban Maverick with Gloves” is not translated.
- Similarly, the description for the default outfit “The Urban Maverick” in ET “The Harbinger (2026)” is also untranslated.
- Diana’s Communication During Infection Increase
- Set the language to Japanese. (Probably any language other than English.)
- Start the Arcade “Contagion” or ET “The Harbinger (2026)”.
- Wait for Lilith to spread the virus.

This isn’t a bug, but I’m reporting it because the translation is incorrect.
The translation for the underground voice recorder and Lilith’s declaration USB says “録画 (Video)”.
While English uses “Record” for both video and audio, Japanese distinguishes between ‘録画’ (recording video) and “録音” (recording audio).
The kanji “画” is used for screens, images, etc., while “音” is used for songs, voices, etc.
In this case, both the underground voice recorder and Lilith’s declaration involve “audio,” so ‘録音’ (audio recording) is more appropriate than “録画” (video recording).
Steps to reproduce:
- Set the language to Japanese.
- Start Contagion.
- Obtain the voice recorder or Lilith’s declaration USB in the underground area.
- It’s translated as “録画” even though it contains “音” (sound).
Frequency:
Always.

Dartmoor - The Harbinger ET
Once you ride the elevator down to the basement and you walk down the stairs, when the doors first open after H.E.R.B. finishes talking - there is a brief invisible force that harms the player. If you’re fast enough, this damage is enough to kill you. If you wait a fraction of a second you will get a small amount of damage but will survive. If you wait long enough, you will not be harmed at all.

@BlossomFox that’ll be because you need to update your UI mod. The objective percentage counter was broken before 3.260.1 (and also had enforced text which you can see there, it should say “Lethality”).
From the looks of it, you have not updated it since the 3.240 (Bruce Lee) patch, which added a red exclamation mark icon which is what that objective uses.

Eminem and Diana’s names are now displayed in their communications, but Eminem’s name is incorrectly spelled “エミネ” missing one character.
This error occurs everywhere names are displayed.

There’s still a mysterious instruction to “pause” in NPC dialogue.
I think it’s acting instruction, but I don’t think it’s necessary for subtitles.

Some NPC conversations have too many subtitles, making them difficult to read.
What’s more, the subtitles disappear quickly and I can’t read them all.
I’ve noticed this issue in a few other places.

I don’t know about you, but for quite some time now I’ve been absolutely furious about the sound issues in Hitman 3. Most often the problem starts after a game update, but it happens so frequently that the game becomes completely unplayable because of it.
I’m talking about all kinds of audio problems - sound spikes and audio lag that vary in frequency depending on the location. Sometimes they’re so intense that you literally can’t hear anything except constant, choppy, stuttering noise.
What’s even stranger is that it doesn’t always occur in the same way. One time a location works fine, another time the audio crackles and cuts out. No other game has ever caused me this kind of problem the way Hitman 3 has.
I cleared the game cache, verified the integrity of the files through Steam, and updated every possible driver on my PC - from graphics drivers to motherboard drivers, and finally audio drivers. Literally nothing helps.
This is clearly an issue with the game itself - and only this game.

Switch2

Freeform Training
Description:
I tried the “Initiate’s First Speedrun” challenge multiple times using the Switch 2 version.
After over an hour of trial and error, I discovered that if you shoot the guard in the body to enter the ship and then assassinate the target while in that state, there’s a high chance you’ll lose the SA that would result in your crime being discovered.
I tried several assassination methods, including pistol kills, wire kills, and explosive kills, but they all worked the same way. Even if you’re not directly observed, such as entering an office bedroom, you will be discovered the moment you assassinate the target unless the “search in progress” state is canceled.
Also, even if you’re lucky enough to complete the training in this state using only the suit, the challenge will not be completed.
It’s likely that there is some kind of bug in the mechanism that detects your crime and the relationship between the search state and committing a crime.
This may only apply to this freeform training, but I thought I’d report it just in case.
Addendum.
I also tested it for about 30 minutes on the Xbox version.
As with the PS5 and Switch 2, if you go to the Litter office undetected and commit a crime without being seen, you will be instantly detected.
The trigger is, as expected, the initial shot at the guard with a pistol.
Shooting the guard with a pistol triggers the alert state to spread to the NPCs, and if you kill the Litter while on alert, for some reason the crime will be detected even if you were not seen.
There seems to be some kind of issue with the program that spreads information between NPCs.
All NPCs that turn orange even though they did not witness the crime are gatekeeper-type NPCs that block passage.
In this stage, they are guarding the area near the stairs.
You may be detected even if you do not pass near them at all.
The guard at the stairs leading from Deck 1 to Deck 2 in the added video is a good example.
Steps to reproduce:
- First, shoot the guard on the gangway in the body to cause a panic.
- Direct Mr. Ritter to the office on Deck 2 and follow him there yourself, ensuring no SA losses occur on the way there.
- While the guards are in “search” mode, stealthily assassinate Mr. Ritter and hide his body in his bedroom.
- Somehow, several distant security guards downstairs and across the wall discovered 47’s crimes even though they hadn’t witnessed them, and I lost my SA status too.
- Some guards turn orange even when there is no sign that they have spotted 47.
Frequency:
Always.

Platform: Everywhere.
Location: Multiple instances across many levels.
Description: A guard checkpoint does not let 47 in a certain area, despite 47’s current disguise not trespassing in that same area. There is no apparent “lore” reason for this (such as the lack of an invite) or it is not self-apparent, and it is confusing for players who may mistakenly assume that their disguise is trespassing somewhere where it’s not, or this can result in unfairly getting shot at by running through a checkpoint into an allowed area. Obviously, this applies only to certain checkpoints and certain disguises.
Steps to reproduce: Approach any of the checkpoints listed below from the front in the correspondent disguise. The guards will tell you that you are not allowed in there; attempts to walk or run through the checkpoint will result in guards telling you to go back or opening fire if you made it too far into the alleged trespassing area. However, infiltrating the same area by any other means will reveal that you are actually not trespassing there.
Paris ''The Showstopper''
- A guard at the museum area
Doesn’t let Sheikh in despite the disguise not trespassing. This is a less egregious example as the guard does not open fire if you decide to run through, but it still can be confusing.
Note: I was going to report more Paris checkpoints, but seems like they were just fixed in the last patch 3.260.1. I listed them here:
Bangkok ''Club 27''
-
A guard checkpoint leading to Ken Morgan’s penthouse suite
Doesn’t let Morgan’s Bodyguard in despite the disguise not trespassing. -
A guard checkpoint leading to the Meadow Brown Lounge on 2nd floor
Doesn’t let Kitchen Staff in despite the disguise not trespassing.
Isle of Sgail ''The Ark Society''
- A raider next to Art Gallery guarding a door to the Helipad area
Doesn’t let multiple disguises such as Architect and Castle Staff through the door despite the disguises not trespassing there.
Haven Island ''The Last Resort''
-
A guard checkpoint leading to a storage area next to Spa
Doesn’t let Resort Staff and Waiter in despite the disguises not trespassing. -
A guard checkpoint next to the bridge to the Private Island
Doesn’t let Snorkel Instructor or Waiter in despite the disguises not trespassing. A particularly egregious example, here’s a detailed breakdown:
There are actually three guards involved in this checkpoint. Two static ones on the right and a roamer on the left.
The two stationary guards are the ones who will enforce trespassing when you go through the bridge or the surrounding waters, even if 47 is disguised as Snorkel Instructor or Waiter – disguises that are actually allowed on the Private Island. This is problematic as the guards are fairly far away, yet can unexpectedly spot you the instant you get into alleged trespassing area, or instantly go to Combat if you make it far enough. Also, the water obviously does not have clear boundaries, and guards almost never react fast enough to let you know that you’re about to “trespass”.
The roaming guard in his turn does not care if you’re “trespassing” if going through the water. However, if you approach by bridge as Snorkel Instructor or Waiter AND the guard actually sees you – which does not happen often due to him roaming back and forth – he will actually offer to frisk you so that you can pass. This is the only “legal” way to enter the Private Island in those two disguises – needlessly convoluted and not properly communicated at all.
I assume the other two guards can’t frisk, so they behave as if you’re trespassing when you enter without the patdown – which most players wouldn’t know about anyway. Honestly? I would just remove the need for the frisk for these disguises in the first place to make it fully legal to enter with no reservations. This is not gonna ruin balance or anything, as a knowledgable player can already easily bypass the checkpoint in those disguises by keeping to the left side or by distracting the guards. It will, however, make lives easier for players who were not aware of all of the above in the first place and give them a chance to discover that these disguises are not actully trespassing there.
Berlin ''Apex Predator''
- A guard checkpoint at the Chill Out area, leading to the Wardrobe area.
This one will tell you that you’re trespassing as Biker, despite the disguise not trespassing there. However… The guard does not seem to work as a checkpoint in the first place, he can only greet you or tell you he can’t let you in – but won’t react if you run through the frisk; unless, of course, you are actually trespassing and he manages to see you in the tresspassing area for long enough. Therefore, this is the least egregious example when it comes to player experience.
Notes: Only examples from main campaign are included so far, they were identified “manually” simply by playing the game; I’m sure more examples can be found with the help of the game’s files, including in side content such as bonus missions, elusive targets (at least The Banker and The Harbinger have a few of those) etc. Also, there are many other confusing or questionable situations involving frisks and checkpoints, this post obviously lists only these select few issues.

Considering an Architect oversees the entire art conservation show from the Ark Control Room in the Warehouse, I wouldn’t say so. And those low tier guards and staff cater to the Ark Patron & Ark Member areas, so it makes sense they wouldn’t be allowed there, and it shouldn’t impact Architect who are on a higher step in the disguise hierarchy.
Furthermore, changing the trespassing status of major area 8 years later (especially if it would work “against” the player) is a big decision, unlike correcting a consistency issue like checkpoint clearance not corresponding to the actual area access status. And of course, if we were to go there, I could go on all day about how some disguises have access where they shouldn’t or vice versa, but all of that would be just an opinion up for a debate.
Can add doctors from Hokkaido as well, although I understand they all just use the same property
