IO Interactive reveals free Hitman 3 location Ambrose Island

Hitman 3 is getting a new location: Ambrose Island. The DLC will be released on July 26 and will be free to all players who own the game. The location is pirate-themed and brings new gameplay possibilities to the stealth game.

IO Interactive says that Ambrose Island is a “hidden cove” and the “home of a dangerous band of pirates operating in the Andaman Sea.” The sandbox location is “fully explorable” and features “new objectives, gameplay opportunities, challenges, and unlockable rewards.” One of those rewards is the Guerrilla Wetsuit, which can be seen in the trailer below.

It is the first time that the game will get a completely new map since its release in January last year. The Seven Deadly Sins DLC reuses existing maps from the franchise. In the July roadmap, IOI also announces that the Himmapan Hotel in Bangkok is in rotation of free locations until July 17. The Elusive Target Vicente Murillo was added on Friday, which is available for ten days. This Friday, food critic Wen Ts’ai will also be added.

Previously, the game’s Freelancer single player mode was delayed to the second half of 2022. That roguelike mode would bring new assassination missions and a customizable safehouse where Agent 47 will store his gear.
