The Hitman 3 system requirements may seem a little confusing at first, with three separate specs for standard rasterisation, ray tracing, and VR. Thankfully, we’re here to help you understand what exactly your gaming PC is capable of when it comes to running Agent 47’s latest and final adventure.
Regarldess of which Hitman 3 system requirements you’re aiming to meet, we recommend that everyone make use of Nvidia DLSS or AMD FSR. These upscaling technologies are one of the easiest ways to boost fps with minimal impact to image quality, benefitting both budget pixel pushers and the best graphics cards.
All three games in the Hitman trilogy can now be played in VR, but there are a host of other visual improvements that have been madeto the game’s Glacier engine as well. Ray traced reflections and shadows are finally here, meaning you’ll be able to enjoy a richer atmosphere and see your target’s final moments reflecting perfectly on 47’s shiny head.
