Key points
- Various players report crashing during gameplay[3][4] and poor performance in general.[3]
- The game requires a constant internet connection for some features to work properly (Elusive targets, Contracts mode and Challenge progression).[5]
- Story mode is available offline, as well as any item unlocked via challenges/ story progression acquired online can be used offline. A late November 2016 patch made unlockables sync to the offline profile and online profile simultaneously.
- All players receive the Hitman 2016 soundtrack and the "Making of" documentary, regardless of purchase history.
