IO Interactive’s critically acclaimed Hitman: World of Assassination trilogy is making its complete debut on Nintendo’s latest next-generation console.
Announced during the recent Switch 2 Direct, the Hitman: World of Assassination Signature Edition will launch alongside the Nintendo Switch 2 on June 5th, 2025.
This comprehensive edition marks a milestone for both the franchise and the platform, delivering all three mainline games, expansive post-launch content, and custom features optimized for Nintendo’s powerful new hardware. Previously, Nintendo Switch owners could access Hitman 3 only through a cloud streaming version, which required a persistent online connection.
With the hardware advancements of Nintendo Switch 2—which now supports 4K output and enhanced processing power—players will, for the first time, experience Agent 47’s globe-trotting missions natively on a Nintendo system, bringing improved performance and the option to play entirely offline. The Hitman: World of Assassination Signature Edition is a robust package, including the complete campaign content from Hitman 1, Hitman 2, and Hitman 3, alongside all associated downloadable content (DLC) packs.
IO Interactive also confirmed that core game modes such as Contracts, Escalation, Elusive Targets Arcade, and the Freelancer mode will be available.
Additionally, featured live content will keep players engaged with ongoing in-game updates. In a rewritten statement reflecting IO Interactive’s announcement: The development team highlighted their goal of ensuring the Switch 2 version would be the series’ best console experience yet.
Key platform-exclusive features include mouse support for aiming, designed to provide precise controls tailored for Nintendo Switch 2.
This marks a significant quality-of-life upgrade for console players accustomed to controller inputs. Ahead of launch, players who pre-order Hitman: World of Assassination Signature Edition through IO Interactive’s official website will receive special in-game bonuses.
The "Signature Pack" introduces new cosmetic options, such as a red suit with a white tie and a white suit with a red tie—clear references to Nintendo’s beloved Mario franchise—as well as a gold wrench and a whimsical mushroom item.
Those who secure the "Quack Pack" can don a green suit and tie, reminiscent of Luigi, and deploy a distinctive green rubber ducky gadget.
While these bonuses are cosmetic, they add unique flair for Nintendo Switch 2 players seeking to personalize their experience. Hitman: World of Assassination Signature Edition's arrival underscores Nintendo Switch 2’s growing appeal for third-party publishers, as its enhanced capabilities make it a welcoming home for major AAA titles.
The package is set for release on June 5th, 2025, via Nintendo eShop and supported retailers at the Switch 2’s official launch, offering both series veterans and newcomers the definitive Agent 47 experience on a Nintendo console.
