The HITMAN 2 November Roadmap is a celebration of HITMAN 2’s One Year anniversary and we’re bringing more live content in a single month than we ever have before - we’re talking a total of 10 Featured Contracts, 8 Escalation Contracts, 6 Challenge Packs, 5 item unlocks, 2 suit unlocks and a Legacy Elusive Target!

We’re very proud of what we’ve achieved so far with HITMAN 2 over the last 12 months and we’re already looking at what’s to come next for the Hitman franchise – but we’ve still got a lot we want to do with HITMAN 2 before then, starting with a bumper roadmap of content!



November Update - Release Notes

The full release notes are posted on our website. Below are the PC-Specific changes.

AMD FidelityFX
We have added support for AMD’s FidelityFX Contrast-Adaptive Sharpening. This algorithm recovers high frequency features lost during temporal anti-aliasing to provide a rich, detailed image. All players can take advantage of this support, regardless of their choice of graphics card. This can be toggled between Off, Weak, Moderate or Strong in the ‘Graphics’ Menu.

DX12 CPU Usage
We have reduced CPU usage, which can improve framerates in certain CPU bound situations. In addition, GPU memory usage has been significantly reduced on NVIDIA cards.

DX12 Shader Cache
We have made some changes that will reduce the time it takes to launch the game on DX12, especially the first time after upgrading a graphics driver, downloading a game update or a completely fresh launch.

Additional note: Since the release of the November Update on November 19th, our PC community has reported that DX12 performance has actually been reduced in some circumstances. We've been able to reproduce this at the studio and a hotfix is currently being tested. We don't have an ETA for when it will be released yet, but will share an update when we do.
