Play order

[felixpoop]

Hello. Does it matter whether I play in order (1,2, then 3)? Are there story elements that continue throughout?

Thank you.

yes, each game in the trilogy is a direct sequel to the previous

Thanks. Now, is it the case that we're only getting maps from the first 2, without much story, but that the 3rd game is a full campaign? What's the difference?

Hitman "world of assassination" has Hitman 1, 2 and 3 in it (the new series which started in 2016).

Imagine an story told in 3 parts. You can start at any part of the story.
You have a full campaign from the start to the finish.

No clues what makes you believe that the first two games didn't have a story or where you read about it.

What are you talking about? There's campaigns for each.

For the first play through is recommended to start with the campaign. It begins with H1 then continues with H2 and finally the campaign story concludes with H3.

theres the campaign tab, includes all main missions and cutscenes as you go through each mission, the side missions can be played whenever

You can play in any order, and as Kuno notes, there are campaigns for each.

But I'd suggest starting with the ICA facility and going through it in order. Play each mission five or ten times and then move on. The narrative is then in order, but it's all rather convoluted anyway. But that's what I would do, and actually did because I played each as they were released. With the WoA bundle you can do whatever you wish. Play Dubai, then Paris and then Mendoza if you want.
