IO Interactive has announced that Hitman 3 has recouped its development costs and is profitable in just a week. Thus, this is the most successful part of the Hitman trilogy from IO Interactive.
As IO Interactive CEO Hakan Abrak told GamingIndustry:
“We have been really happy with the Hitman 3 journey.
It has been a labor of love between our fans and everyone at the studio. As the developer and publisher, we are immensely proud that we can say Hitman 3 is already profitable. We have recouped the total project costs in less than a week. That puts us in a really good place and allows us to confidently move forward with our ambitious plans for future projects.”
Unfortunately, IO Interactive has not revealed any platform-specific sales. As such, we don’t know whether the PC version was as profitable as the console versions.
Hitman 3 performs great on the PC. Moreover, you can download a FOV Mod, as well as an FPS Mod.

Still, the PC platform won him over consoles. That was mainly due to 3DFX and its iconic dedicated 3D accelerator graphics card, Voodoo 2.

Funny how they all of a sudden started making these statements after they were dropped by Square Enix.
Square Enix is a terrible company just like IOInteracive themselves. The Conman didn’t like being conned by another conman.
exactly.
I bet it’s the money from Epic Games not from gamers.
Yes it is…..
I tough it was profitable before even release since they had a deal with Epic?
Excellent!
This is mostly the Tencent / Epic bribe money you fcking piece of trash!
Why I have the same vibe from this game as FIFA!! Its feels like repetitive.
At least they don’t take Epic/Tencent bribe money and then say “hey, our game is already profitable” !!!
Crikey, all from Epic Games to offset the losses so it reports profitable so that more people flood to China.
Hitman 1,2, and 3 in VR on PC remaster or no buy
If I shat on a piece of paper and got funded for it I’m sure I’d be profitable too. Duh!
Epic/Tencent bribe money
Yeah I don’t know why this article is reporting as if they actually ACHIEVED anything.
I pirated hitman 3 in less than an hour.
I did the same and I liked the game.
People who play stores will miss a fun game and will whine all over the internet about it. Sucks to be these people, I guess.
So says the guy who admitted to not actually buying the game and just pirating it, literally in the previous paragraph. You’re like a living parody.
Wanna really show us that you’re “walking the talk”? Post a screenshot of a purchase receipt for Hitman 3 from Epic Store.
Mate, get a life.
Ah, your projection is so painfully obvious, so sad. The person who pretends to financially support stores and games just to own randos is the last person who should be judging others’ lifestyles.
Learn to just take the L humbly, clown.
LMAO
What the fvck are you talking about, mate?
Financially support stores?!
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
I would call you a clown as well, but you’re clearly the entire circus.
In time… Learn to fvcking read, please.
Good goat! Didn’t realise it was out yet.
Epic, make piracy great again.
Deserved, the game is good.
Asset flip made by 20 guys + Epic/Tencent bribe money AND then saying it is profitable under a week… is kind of… FCKING STPID man!!!!
To be honest. Its not a good game
Funny how these devs are saying such statements when they receive bribe money from Epic…
-epic games
-no denuvo
-win10 only
still successful.
Well, this has destroyed all illusions about what sells and what doesnt.
Well is not like there is a lot going on in the stealth genre out there.
This is pretty much the only series still standing.
Are you stpid ? This is complete bullsht since it count the Epic/Tencent bribe money!!! I bet they selled less than 50K copies!!!!
I’m guesing that’s due to it looking like a title from 5+ years ago. It couldn’t have demanded much in the way of development costs.
Epic, make piracy great again.
idiot, its the same game they made the last 2 times, same engine same assets, just added more and new levels
Good news for the stealth genre, it is kinda dead lately.
a rip-off boring 3 hour campaign profitable?
clownworld
Game looks fun to play. But waiting for it to hit under $20
This game is a copy/paste of the 2 first games AND Epic has bribe them with shtload of $$$$
So they can FCK OFF PoT
such liars , like if aNYONE KNEW EPIC SPYFRAUD HAD COVERED IT ALREADY
Exactly, these news are so FCKING BULLSHT JOHN.
FYI this count the Epic/Tencent bribe money…… This is a fcking joke, I bet they selled less than 50K copies….
