Access Pass

To celebrate the Trilogy of the Hitman Franchise, IOI seems very serious about the Integration of all three Games. That's why they've brought an Access Pass which lets you play on the locations and mission of Hitman 1, and 2 within Hitman 3.

Access Pass is basically a DLC that is required to Access Hitman 1, and 2 Content within Hitman 3. However, if you already own Hitman 1 or 2 within the Same Console where you own Hitman 3, only then you don't have to Buy any Access Pass, you can get it for free.

[Note: if you only own Hitman 1 then you first have to transfer its Data into the Hitman 2 Game. Follow this Guide]

Hitman Access Pass

Let's assume you own Hitman 2 on PS4, then you would be able to download Access Pass DLC in Hitman 3 for both PS4, and PS5. And the same applies to Xbox.

However, IOI is currently working out on allowing PC Players to import Hitman 1, and 2 locations to the Hitman 3 Game at no additional cost, or requirement of repurchasing the Game.

Until Hitman 1 Goty Access Pass will be free for all PC Players who Pre-Order or Buy the Game within 10 Days of Launch.

For those players who own Hitman 1 or 2 on the same platform as the Hitman 3, you'll get the Access Pass for free without repurchasing the previous Games.

On PC, IOI is currently working to allow players to import Hitman 2 Content to Hitman 3. Until the Hitman Goty Pass is here so that players can import Hitman 1 Locations to the Hitman 3 Game. Goty Access Pass will be free for those who pre-order or Buy the Game within 10 Days of launch.
