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 installment 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.

Hitman 3 is an AMD-friendly title though, and at 1080p the RX 6700 XT is effectively matching the RTX 3070, with only a single frame difference between the two. It's also 11% faster than the RTX 3060 Ti, which managed 166FPS.

As for 1440p, it's again very close, though the 6700 XT is 4% slower than the RTX 3070. I'd still call that close enough to be irrelevant though, while we can also see a 9% lead over the RTX 3060 Ti.
