How do I ONLY buy HITMAN 3 Content????

[demontrace]

I already own everything from HITMAN 1 and HITMAN 2. I only want to buy what's added from HITMAN 3.
There doesnt seem to be an option for this. How do I do this? Am I FORCED into buying the Part 1 Pack to officially unlock HITMAN WoA access on my account, and then buy the "Upgrade" Pack?

I did the HITMAN 3 Starter Pack, which allows you to load up WoA, and import your previous game, but it's "Upgrade" Pack isn't the "COMPLETE THE SET" upgrade that is in the Pinned comment in this forum.

WTF is with IOI??? Why are they doing this? They've had so many good games, and good will, and they throw it away for this confusing mess?

if you're talking about "location importing" or "Access Pass," that was removed in January 2023 when HITMAN 3 was renamed as HITMAN World of Assassination.

Progression carryover is still available, though: https://ioisupport.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360019061577-Progression-Carryover-Guide

These threads confuse me more than Hitman's store page ever did.

You didn't pay attention to anything anyone said in your other thread, did you?

Okay. Cool story bro. None of that matters.

Previously, if you purchased Hitman 3, then owning Hitman 2 would give you a free copy of the DLC that lets you play Hitman 1 and 2 inside of Hitman 3. Now that Hitman 3 is WOA, that DLC no longer exists.

You don't. World of Assassination is the only game being sold. It contains all the levels from H1, H2, and H3 (except New York and Haven Island) under one roof and is cheaper right now than H3 ever was standalone.

No. In fact, you should not buy Part One if you already own Hitman 1. This is pointless. WOA Part One is just the content from Hitman 1 and a low price point to convince people to buy the whole game. It's a paid demo in a way.

The starter pack is another demo product. It contains only the tutorial levels and a few seasonal offerings. If you are looking to get the content previously found in Hitman 3 you will not find it here.

The "complete the set" functionality is a steam store capability that allows people who own individual parts of a bundle to purchase the rest of the bundle at a discounted price. If you don't own any WOA DLC then this means nothing to you.

Their marketing team is, in fact, trippin balls, but they haven't done anything to you. You aren't reading the store page or the detailed Comparison Grid graphic which is the first thing that appears on it. Let me make it simple for you: The thing you want to buy is HITMAN World of Assassination, the standard edition, not Part One. Currently -60% off and $27.99 USD. This is the game which was previously known as HITMAN 3. You're not paying extra for H1 and H2 again. Those just come for free now if you didn't already have them.

If you want to add Haven Island and New York to your game, buy the HITMAN 3 Access Pass: HITMAN 2 Expansion.

People have the reading comprehension of a 3-year-old with mental disabilities, but somehow it's IOI's fault... Yeah, I can't with these dumbass threads either.
