Developer IO interactive has issued its long-awaited solution for Hitman 3 on PC, finally enabling players to import their Hitman 1 and 2 locations into the game at no additional cost.
All this started last August, when IO announced PC players would be able to carry their Hitman 2 progression and unlocks over from Steam into Hitman 3 on the Epic Games Store, and that existing Hitman 1 & 2 owners would be able to import locations from those games into the third instalment at no extra cost via an Access Pass system.
However, in January, a little over a week before release, IO made a sudden U-turn, announcing that “due to various circumstances out of our control, we want to acknowledge that the process is different to our initial plans for PC players”. Essentially, those who’d already purchased Hitman 1 and 2 on Steam would now need to repurchase those levels again as DLC in the Epic Games Store-exclusive Hitman 3.
