Agent 47’s earliest contracts are getting a fresh coat of paint. Hitman Classic Trilogy Remastered packages the first three games in the series with rebuilt visuals, and it’s heading to PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC in 2027. The catch worth flagging up front is the platform list, because there’s no Nintendo Switch or Switch 2 version in the picture.
Quick answer: Hitman Classic Trilogy Remastered launches in 2027 on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC (Steam). No Nintendo Switch or Switch 2 release has been confirmed.
Hitman Classic Trilogy Remastered platforms (no Nintendo Switch)
IO Interactive and Saber Interactive are handling the remaster, and the confirmed platforms are PS5, Xbox Series X and Series S, and PC. The game already has a Steam listing if you want to follow it on PC.
What stands out is the absence of Nintendo’s hardware. With so much of IO Interactive’s recent catalog finding a home on handhelds, leaving this trilogy off the Switch 2 at announcement is a notable gap. A port could still be revealed later, but nothing is confirmed for it right now.
Games included in Hitman Classic Trilogy Remastered
The collection covers the run that established the series before the later reboot trilogy folded everything into World of Assassination. All three are bundled together in a single package.
| Included title | Role in the series |
|---|---|
| Hitman: Codename 47 | The original game that introduced Agent 47 |
| Hitman 2: Silent Assassin | The follow-up with more refined stealth systems |
| Hitman: Contracts | A darker, more psychological entry that revisits earlier material |
Graphics changes and Photo Mode
The remaster keeps the original art direction but rebuilds the look with upgraded character models, high-resolution textures, and reworked environments. Waterfront buildings that used to be smeared, blurry textures are now fully rendered, and even the water gets a clear visual lift.
There’s also an instant graphics toggle, so you can flip between the modern presentation and the original visuals whenever you want. A new Photo Mode rounds things out, letting you step outside the usual mission boundaries to frame Agent 47 or look around the levels in detail.
Gameplay in the remastered trilogy
This is the classic Hitman loop, untouched at its core. You rely on stealth, disguises, careful timing, and the environment itself to slip into a target’s space, complete the contract, and get out clean. Every mission keeps multiple routes and puzzle-like solutions, so two playthroughs rarely look the same.
The remaster preserves the systems, tone, and player-driven freedom of the originals rather than reworking them. Firearms are still on hand if a plan falls apart and you need to fight your way out, but the emphasis stays on observation and quiet execution.
Hitman Classic Trilogy Remastered release window
The trilogy is set to launch in 2027 across PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC. No exact release date or time has been confirmed yet, so the only firm detail for now is the year and the platform lineup. Until IO Interactive and Saber Interactive narrow that window, treat 2027 as the target and watch the Steam page for any update.
If you grew up dodging guards in Beldingford Manor or fumbling through the checkpoint-free missions of Codename 47, this is the version built to bring those contracts up to modern standards. The only real disappointment is that, for the moment, Switch owners are left out of the hit.
