All Game Items

Overview

_Hitman 3_ (part of the World of Assassination trilogy) offers a massive arsenal of weapons, tools, poisons, and collectibles. Items are unlocked through Mastery Levels, Challenge Packs, Elusive Target Suits, or DLC (Seven Deadly Sins, Premium Add-ons).

#### Important Notes

• All weapons are illegal if seen by witnesses (unless disguised as a guard with a holster).


• Many items can be illegal to pick up (e.g., sniper rifles in plain sight) – use distraction or smokescreen.


• Mastery Unlocks are per-mission (e.g., Dubai Mastery Level 10 unlocks the Sieger 300 Ghost sniper).


• DLC items (e.g., from the Seven Deadly Sins escalation) are included but noted.

Firearms

Firearms are the core of Agent 47’s lethal options. Every weapon has a concealment rating (small/medium/large) which affects how easily it can be hidden under certain disguises. All weapons are illegal if spotted.

Pistols

Pistols are the most versatile firearm: silent variants exist, and they can be thrown as a distraction or melee attack.

Synergies: Pistols can be thrown to stun enemies (use with Kalmer for a non-lethal takedown). Combining a silenced pistol with a distraction (coin throw) allows picking off isolated targets.

---

Assault Rifles

High noise, high lethality. Best for loud playthroughs or emergency combat. Usually illegal to carry.

Synergies: Assault rifles can be used to destroy cameras quickly. Pair with a briefcase to smuggle into restricted zones.

---

Shotguns

Powerful but loud; one-hit kill at close range. Some are sawed-off for concealability.

Synergies: Shotguns can breach doors (some locked ones). Combine with a noise distraction to lure guards into a kill zone.

---

Sniper Rifles

Extremely long-range. Usually large and illegal to carry openly. Must be stowed in briefcase to pass inspection.

Synergies: Sniper rifles require a briefcase to smuggle into most areas. Use with disguised guard to place on parapets. Combine with remote explosive to cover escape.

---

SMGs & Submachine Guns

Compact, full-auto with good rate of fire. Medium concealability.

Note: Some SMGs like the ICA Covert SMG are excellent for silent speedruns when combined with a suppressor.

---

Melee Weapons

Melee weapons are silent when used from stealth. Each has a unique animation and illegal status if spotted. They can also be thrown.

Synergies: Melee + poison? No, but melee can be used to stun before a syringe. Some melee weapons can open locked containers (crowbar, hammer?). Actually crowbar opens lockers, hammer breaks crates.

Upgrades: The ICA Lockpick Mk III functions like a melee tool but not a weapon.

---

Thrown Items (Distractions & Projectiles)

Thrown items serve to distract guards, make noise, or knock out targets non‑lethally.

Synergies: Coins can be used to lead guards into a pre‑placed trap (like an explosion or a knee‑jerk reaction). Throwing a knife is silent; pair with a sniper for a three‑kill combo.

---

Gadgets & Tools

Non‑weapon tools that aid infiltration, hacking, or interaction.

Synergies: Lockpick + flashlight (the game doesn't have flashlight) – but Lockpick Mk III can open most doors. Combine with disguise to avoid suspicion while picking.

---

Poisons & Sedatives

Poisons can be delivered via syringes, food, or drink, or as a gas (fumigator). They are lethal or non‑lethal.

Synergies: Poison + distraction can cause target to eat/drink. Use emetic poison in food bowl to empty a room. Combine with sedative for SA runs.

---

Explosives

Explosives cause loud noise and kill within blast radius. They are illegal unless in a briefcase.

Synergies: Explosive + distraction (coin) to lure target into blast zone. Remote C4 can be placed on leaky pipes for an accident kill.

---

Key Items

Mission‑specific items that are required for main objectives, mission stories, or alternate exits.

Synergies: Key items often require specific disguises to access. e.g., Keycard requires guard disguise to avoid suspicion.

---

Collectibles

Not all are items in inventory, but they are important for completion.

---

Currencies & Progression

Note: There is no in‑game shop outside of DLC. Most items are unlocked via Mastery Levels or Challenges.

---

Upgrades & Synergies

Upgrades via Mastery

Each mission has a Mastery Level (up to 20). Unlocks include new loadout slots (e.g., start with a sniper rifle), better versions of items (e.g., Kaiken Mk II), and exclusive items.

Synergies Examples

• Lethal Poison + Muffin: Poison a muffin and place it in a security room – guard will eat it and die (accident).


• Emetic Poison + Soup: Poison a soup bowl; all NPCs who eat it will vomit, clearing the area for a minute.


• Sedative + Distriction: Sedate a guard, hide body, then lure another guard with coin.


• Sniper + Briefcase: Use briefcase to bring large sniper rifle into restricted area (e.g., Dubai’s top floor).


• Camera + Laptop: Use camera to scan QR codes, then hack with laptop.




Best Loadouts



• Silent Assassin: ICA Silverballer (Mk II), Lockpick, Sedative Syringe, Coins.


• Speedrun: Shortballer (for quick engagement), Remote Explosive (to blow up camera box), Crowbar.


• Ghost Run: Krugermeier 2-2 (silent pistol), Emetic Poison Vial, Throwing Knife (for long‑range silent kill).

Conclusion

This guide covers every major item category in _Hitman 3_. Mastery progression is key – focusing on one mission at a time unlocks powerful tools across the entire trilogy. Always consider the illegal status of an item before bringing it to a public area. Use the briefcase to smuggle large weapons, and never underestimate the humble coin for manipulating guards. Synergize poisons with food/drink, and combine distractions with explosives for accident kills. Happy hunting, Agent.
