Hoewel het eerste seizoen van Hitman er inmiddels op zit, betekent dit niet dat IO Interactive stopt met het ondersteunen van de game. Integendeel zelfs, want er is een nieuwe update uitgerold en de plannen voor maart zijn bekendgemaakt via de website. Hoewel de update geen grootse dingen met zich meebrengt, is het wel een behoorlijke waslijst.

  • Simplified Chinese Language Support – We’ve added full menu and subtitle support for Simplified Chinese on PC.
  • Performance – We’ve fixed some rare issues that could cause the game to crash or be unstable.
  • Missing Exits – We’ve fixed an issue that could prevent exit points from appearing after killing the target(s).
  • Paris Suspend – We’ve fixed an issue that could cause guards and targets in Paris to suspend their routines, after specific player actions.
  • Subdue Prompt – We’ve fixed an issue that could cause the ‘subdue’ prompt to disappear when an NPC is picking up an item or when they are close to a wall.
  • Scoring Adjustment – We’ve fixed an issue where the ‘Never Spotted’ bonus was not awarded in certain cases.
  • Sapienza Lab – We’ve fixed an issue that could cause 47 to be ‘spotted’ in the Sapienza Lab, even whilst ‘blending in’.
  • Hokkaido Landscape – We’ve fixed a rare issue that could cause 47 to fall ‘out of world’ in Hokkaido.
  • Contracts Search Favourites – The Contract Tile now displays an icon to show whether that contract has been added to ‘My Favorites’
  • Sticky Pistol (Escalation) – We’ve fixed an issue where the ‘Sticky Pistol’ countdown would expire, despite 47 having the pistol equipped on a ledge.
  • The Incarnation Non-Accident – We’ve fixed an issue in the ‘Meiko Incarnation’ Escalation where dumping an NPC in a specific area would not result in an accident kill.
  • Disappearing Act – We’ve fixed an issue that could cause a holstered large weapon to be lost when activating the diorama in Paris.
  • Fire Safety – We’ve fixed an issue that could cause NPC’s to teleport away when they are burning.
  • HDR Launcher – We’ve fixed an issue where the ‘HDR’ option could not be enabled in the game’s launcher on AMD cards.
  • Sun Spots (HDR) – We’ve fixed an issue that could cause black pixels to appear around bright light sources when HDR is enabled.
  • Additional – We’ve also fixed other minor issues involving AI dialogue, audio and VO consistency, escalation completion marks and we’ve slightly reworded some menu text to make it more consistent.

Verder kunnen we deze maand nog een aantal andere dingen verwachten. Te beginnen met tien nieuwe Featured Contracts, deze zijn vanaf volgende week te spelen. Vervolgens kunnen we de week erop een nieuw Escalation Contract verwachten in Bangkok en nog een aantal andere dingen. Hieronder een handig overzichtje.
