  • Community Q&A

    • Q: How do I submit a contract to be featured?

    • A: Every month on Hitman Forum there is a thread that allows you to submit a contract and explains what happens.

    • Q: Is there going to be a reward for completing 60 FCs?

    • A: Probably not Season of Gluttony, but there will be a reward.

    • Q: Sales?

    • A: Crazy sales on all platforms for summer, best thing to do is to keep an eye on IOI’s social media.

    • Q: Butcher Suit?

    • A: It was a concept that was in motion. Might have a place down the line, might never come out.

    • Q: Modding Policy?

    • A: Working on what the stance could be, right now the official rule is no modifications to the game.

    • Q: Server replacement?

    • A: More tricky, more of a red flag, never going to support officially or unofficially (keep on the radar).

    • Q: Contracts mode

    • A: No changes on the table in the immediate future, for now wait and see, it’s noted and being discussed. They can say we like the ideas, but we cannot say we can make it happen.

    • Q: Haven island wallhacks

    • A: Always making fixes to wallhacks, have a database of tracked wallhacks to fix. Leaning more heavily to Hitman 3 bugs.

    • Q: Trinity pack purchaseable?

    • A: Talks on if they should do this, currently pre-order only.

    • Q: Raytracing

    • A: News on this to come, stay tuned.

    • Q: Seasonal Events coming back?

    • A: More info about that soon.

    • Q: Solstice Suit

    • A: No one has ever talked about that officially from IOI.
