To piggy back off of another wishlist post I made – Better UI Navigation for Loadouts & Featured Contracts, it would be great if IO could decide on the nomenclature they want to stick with for items. Personally I like the Mk I, Mk II, Mk III approach but we also have some like V3 or what have you. This is just my ocd bugging me but still.
Extension thought here. I would love it if we got proper Mk I, Mk II, Mk III models and variants of every applicable item in the game. Instead of the “2” sticker for Mk II models and many items never getting a proper Mk II and Mk III in the first place.
P.S. I want a Silverballer Mk III if you couldn’t tell.
Update 10/18/2022 -- Suggestion List
Sorry for the long wait. This took a minute to gather…
Shame that mods aren’t for all platforms, but at least our friends on PC can enjoy the improvement. Nonetheless, I’ll be using my own career unlock progress and the Hitman 3 fandom wiki to be as comprehensive and exhaustive as possible. Everything I can find will be listed as follows:
Current Names in-game as of v.3.130 < Suggested Name Change
Some of the suggested changes will simply be grammatical adjustments, while others will be formatting changes intended to make distinctions more clear. Changes that aren’t self explanatory will have accompanying notes.
P.S. I will include a link to another thread I create containing entries for non-existent item variants that I wish were added to Hitman 3.

Sieger 300 Viper < Sieger 300 – “Viper”
The White Ruby Rude 300 Sniper Rifle < Sieger 300 – “Ruby Rude Edition”
What bugs me is how a lot of the recent new items use “The ___” in their name, so they show up near the end of the menu instead of near the other items that they’re similar to. The Floral Baller should be the “ICA19 Floralballer”, The Ducky Gun should be the “Custom 5mm ‘Ducky’ Edition”, and The White Ruby Rude 300 Sniper Rifle should be the “Sieger 300 White Ruby Rude Edition”. Also, the Striker V3 should be the “Striker Mk. III”
Exactly how I feel about it. Things just feel so messy for it to just be all spread out like that instead of atleast having the mk I mk II and mk III versions of an item next to eachother in ascending order. if not a single “live tile” we can flip through like tabs.
Agree completely on the items mentioned. Just wish they picked a naming theme and stuck with it for better organization. Guess this hasn’t flared up anyone’s OCD over at IO.
Also fixing the “Remote Explosive Rubber Duck Mk II” so that when you’re holding the detonator it’s not identified on the prompt as “Remote Explosive Rubber Duck S2”, which is what has been displayed since H2 released.
Agreed. Just consistency with the naming across every item and piece of equipment would be great. Otherwise things just feel messy and unfinished or worse like it’s all being done by different people who don’t even communicate with eachother.
