By Stephany Nunneley, Friday, 29 January 2021 20:38 GMT Extra Hitman 3 content is on the way, but it may not take the form of new maps.Speaking with TheGamer, IO Interactive said to expect additional content to be made available for Hitman 3, but look at it in terms of Escalation contracts and possibly other limited-time content.“We are definitely going to be doing some DLC, but we haven’t defined what that is.
