Episode Three releases for all platforms on May 31st and adds an entirely new destination to Hitman; Marrakesh, Morocco. From the busy souks and shisha cafes, to the angry mobs calling for justice outside the Swedish consulate, Marrakesh promises Hitman players the lure of voyeurism and the thrill of infiltration.

What it’s like

Hitman: Episode 3 - Marrakesh delivers a masterclass in systemic stealth gameplay set within a vibrant, densely packed sandbox. You assume the role of Agent 47, infiltrating a Moroccan city teeming with life to eliminate high-profile targets amidst political unrest. The experience is defined by player agency; rather than linear paths, you are presented with a complex web of social codes, environmental hazards, and NPC routines that can be manipulated or exploited. The tone balances dark satire with intense tactical tension, requiring patience, observation, and creative problem-solving. Success relies on blending in, stealing identities, and using the environment to your advantage rather than brute force. While the narrative serves as a framework for the assassination contracts, the true depth lies in the emergent gameplay possibilities, allowing for multiple approaches ranging from silent takedowns to chaotic distractions.

Keep in mind The game offers minimal traditional combat satisfaction, as direct confrontation is often inefficient and discouraged. It may frustrate players who prefer linear, guided experiences or lack patience for meticulous observation and trial-and-error experimentation.
