Hitman 3 (stylized as HITMAN III) is a stealth game developed and published by IO Interactive for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, Stadia (under the title Hitman: World of Assassination), and Nintendo Switch on 20 January 2021. It is the eighth main instalment in the Hitman series and the final entry in the World of Assassination trilogy, following Hitman (2016) and Hitman 2 (2018). (Wikipedia).

Engine: Glacier. We test using Ultra settings (or High where Ultra is not available), VRS off, DX12 API.

Up next we have Hitman 3, another strong title for AMD GPUs. Here the RX 6600 XT is averaging just shy of 150FPS, which isn't half-bad, and it's 14% faster than the RTX 3060. It is however, actually slower than the RX 5700 XT – admittedly not by a lot, but it's not the direction of travel that you want to be seeing from this new GPU.

Still, an average of 100FPS at 1440p is another solid result, putting the 6600 XT 13% behind the RTX 3060 Ti – and that's actually one of the closer results between these GPUs. We can also see the 1% lows are identical between the 6600 XT and the 5700 XT.
