For the sake of game preservation, Chicago should definitely be made availabile. ---

I agree. And for the same reason, I would remake also sniper mobile missions. They’re dead games now ---

Why haven’t we gotten NEW & INNOVATIVE weapons? It’s just reskins really. I think, and correct me if I’m wrong, the last thing we got new with properties was from the deadly sins like the serpent crossbow or was it the Molotov from Ambrose? And those would be 2 years ago. I think what could really change things for this game would be NEW weapons. I’d love to see: •sieker and/or tranq sniper •sticky bombs like explosive/flash (when you throw it, it doesn’t bounce. It sticks exactly where it lands so you can potentially stick bombs to ceilings or even an npc’s back so they are a walking bomb, and such). •Etc etc etc ---

While we’re on that, a sticky EMP, so that we can throw it at the security terminals and not worry about whether they’ll stay close enough to work when activated. ---

I want a sniper that uses the explosive ammo from the Sniper Assassin mode. Was fun when we had it for a month when H3 first launched until it was patched out. ---

I’m probably the minority, but as they do finally decide to take the game offline… I would really love some game breaking unlocks. (At this point, I really, really don’t care about leaderboards). Electric Phone, explosive ammo, maybe a machine gun (ala Contracts), or nail gun (Silent Assassin), etc. Hopefully we are able to play WOA forever, and I think it’d be great to have just some cheese to be as ridiculous as we care to be. Oh, and I play on console, so I never get to have the fun modders get. ---

Right then my year 5 wishlist (relatively small) - Challenge packs (as they used to be) - 3 tier escalation contracts - New items rather than suits or reskins (I don’t have any examples or requests 😂) Overall the fact that we’re getting more content next year and they’re supporting the game in its 5th year is phenomenal, long may it continue. ---

> [@47saso47](#): > > Why haven’t we gotten NEW & INNOVATIVE weapons? I read somewhere on this forum about a EMP being disguised as a cassette tape. It would get picked up by a guard and brought to the nearest Video recorder. I would love that!! Would make my life a little easier on maps such as Himmapan Hotel. But yeah we need something new and never seen before! ---

there are some pretty nice new (uniquely functioning!) things (leaked to be) coming soon! ---

> [@Morty7](#): > > Electric Phone, explosive ammo, maybe a machine gun (ala Contracts), or nail gun (Silent Assassin), etc. Honestly out of those I’d mostly consider elec phone to be game breaking. New guns are just guns, and while explosive ammo could almost certainly open up some funny strats, I don’t see it trivalising ETs or anything like that. So I wouldn’t mind having these added. ---

I can’t help but to think of a soundtrack we fans must have! I’m not sure what songs have been put on other OSTs… I believe the one we got with H1 have all of the main missions (from that game). This soundtrack would have (in no particular order) Champions of the Wild Side by Mindy Jones(?) (Seven Deadly Sins trailer tunes, maybe extended since they’re pretty short) Greed Pride Sloth Lust Gluttony Envy Wrath . . . Then maybe the various songs from the levels, like the lounge music from Miami, the music from the house in Santa Fortuna with the 2nd half sped up like we hear in Haven Island (or some mix of this song), and perhaps some other songs that we haven’t had on any OST (yet). The Club Hölle music. I was considering making a #Wishlist topic and others could probably suggest other songs that should go with such a soundtrack. So anyway… Yeah. That’s something I’d like to see come along in Y5/2025. ---

I know, I’m really cuffed we’re getting a Year 5 as I was preparing myself for Year 4 to be the final year. It seems like Year 5 is leaning more to be final year as all good things must come to an end eventually, but like you’ve already said, to get to Year 5 is absolutely phenomenal and it just shows how successful the game has become 🙂 ---

I’m intrigued as to how much actual dev resource the current Hitman content uses, surely it can’t be that much? It would be good to see the support continued until the next Hitman instalment. ---

> [@Bardachenko](#): > > And 2026 will be 10th anniversary from Hitman 1. Maybe there will be great other surprises Yeah that’s a point! 😉 who knows, Year 6 may very well become a reality, especially with an important milestone like that!! 😁 > [@JaM\_47](#): > > I’m intrigued as to how much actual dev resource the current Hitman content uses, surely it can’t be that much? > > It would be good to see the support continued until the next Hitman instalment. I believe IOI have the smallest team in the studio now working on Hitman WOA. Regardless, they are still throwing out some cool content at this stage in the games life cycle 😉 ---

> [@JaM\_47](#): > > It would be good to see the support continued until the next Hitman instalment. Its probably unlikely that its going to run that far. My expectation is that it will continue up until they get close to releasing either Project 007 or Fantasy and then WoA will wrap up so they can focus on their next golden egg. ---

I’d like to see a new single target mission in some of the maps that didn’t get the chance to shine, like the last Hitman 2 maps (story order wise, like Ambrose Island or Haven Island) or the H3 maps like Mendoza (I know it has ETs but I’d like a map variaton) or Carpathian Mountains. ---

Make the Fixer in elusive target arcade. It’s not restricted because of contractual details like the Wildcard, nor is it in a situation like the Disruptor. The elusive target has never been reactivated since Hitman 3, and I currently will never have a chance to take it on. Also, since we have Marv and Harry in Paris Holiday Hoarders. How about a Kevin McCallister in Whittleton Creek? It’d be funny if he set up like traps all over the map (electrocution, cameras, accident kills) targeting NPCs, but also a potential death for Agent 47. (And it could be a winter map) [Previous page](https://www.hitmanforum.com/t/year-5-2025-speculation/22645.md?page=6) [Next page](https://www.hitmanforum.com/t/year-5-2025-speculation/22645.md?page=8)
