Year 2 content is set to launch January 20 and players can expect to see the reveal of “Elusive Target Arcade, PC VR and a brand new game mode – plus other announcements, surprises and new footage,” tomorrow.

Late last year, IO Interactive said that there were “more people working on Hitman 3” than at the game’s launch in January. Communications Manager for IOI, Travis Barbour also promised that “there’s a lot more to come next year, too” for Hitman 3.

In NME’s review of the game, Jordan Oloman gave it four stars, saying Hitman 3 was “a confident package of killer content” and “a buffet of brilliant gameplay opportunities for you to gorge on over many months.”

“With immaculate visuals and environments bustling with details to coax out your most chaotic murder sprees, it’s going to be hard to argue against picking this up if you’re a Hit-fan. It’s also a great place to start for those new to the series, with substantial replay value and a VR outing that amounts to far more than simple gimmicks.”
