Hitman 3 is a 2021 stealth game developed and published by IO Interactive. Hitman 3 was released worldwide for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Windows, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, Stadia, and Nintendo Switch (via cloud gaming) on 20 January 2021. (Wikipedia).

Engine: Glacier engine. We test using Ultra settings, RT Reflections, RT Shadows, DXR API. DLSS/FSR are disabled.

Hitman 3's ray tracing implementation is perhaps surprisingly punishing, with the 4070 only able to hit 57FPS at 1080p, where it sits level with the RTX 3080, while also coming in 18% faster than the RTX 3070 Ti.

Up at 1440p it's still pretty much neck and neck with the RTX 3080, but both GPUs see the 1% lows drop below 30FPS, so it's another title where some form of upscaling will be required.
