Here’s how the PC version of Hitman 3 scales beyond the console version via top-end settings, how it compares to PS5 and Series X and our recommended settings for the best balance of performance and features. And of course, Alex Battaglia lets you know what’s what.

Why would someone dislike this video? Lol
Digital Foundry just proved the newest consoles are only modified versions of the 5700 XT.
“Xbox Series X as powerful as a 2080 Ti” my ass.
*optimized
Alex PLEASE learn to spell properly! You're pronunciation is einwandfrei and on point, so why to hell be so inconsistent?! Makes NULL sense.
PC is still the king, no matter what generations of consoles you're living in.
If the Xbox version runs at a higher resolution why wouldn’t you use the Xbox version to start the comparison
This video has a lot less views than other DF videos. I think many console fanboys were nervous to watch this, and see their console actually shown to be weaker than they thought. lol
Where you getting Textures Ultra from? There is only a High option for Texture Quality. Level Detail, SSAO and Shadow Quality has Ultra.
worst game ewer
Love this game from hitman 1 to hitman 3 . Thanks "in the here and now " foundry .
Most Hitman has always been a solid Game that has just gotten better with age.
There's definitely going to be an update for the PS5 version.
PS4 pro version runs at 1800p, X1X runs at 2160p. The PS5 version uses the same base 1800p version from PS4, while XSX uses the base X1X 2160p version. The only difference is the fps count being unlocked from 30fps to a capped 60fps.
Wow, i'm testing this game on an RX 580 at 4K with the PS5 settings and surprisingly it's above 30 FPS. Pretty great optimization!
I want to se pro and ond x versions
Tech geek channel: let me tell you how to leave a like and where the bell is and what it does.
When will YouTubers see that people will do that if they feel like it. WE DO NOT SUFFER FROM ALZHEIMERS!
Should run great next year when it releases on Steam.
Can someone tell me the title of the intro music?
Xbox One X version better than Series S
Hitman 3 runs better on xboxsx then on ps5, and i think from now on thtere will be no more punch above its wheight for ps5, xboxsx will smash ps5 in control ultimate with ray tracing
Delamain, is that you?
Is Xbox Series X really better than a 2070 super? Theoretically yes but in practice not really
Impressive video.Thank you DF.
Series x dropping the power elbow on the pos5 in this one pretty damn hard. 44% more pixels being pushed alone. Wow.
You guys say, use this setting instead of the standard console setting… its not the standard console setting. It is for the ps5. Its not for the series x. Kind of disenguous by implying the series x uses the same lower settings as the ps5. Thats not the case.
Wait… so Series X runs it at native 4K but the PS5 runs it down at 1800p? Now there’s your cocking 12 teraflops of compute
What explains why hitman 3 runs better on series x than ps5 is BECAUSE ITS MORE POWERFUL. Stop tip toeing around it because you're afraid to anger the blue idiot mob.

It's a shame, that H3 don't support DLSS
Xbox series x has the best console version yet the Ps5 is used as a benchmark for console vs PC, this is y Xbox will never get the mindshare. They started the generation poor and they can't recover from that.
Yep and as usual you can see Consoles will never be able to touch the framerates of PC. ;o)
Series X 32FPS at the lowest point, or 38FPS? Comparison percentages seem to correlate to the 38FPS number.
The franchise's been around for ages.
What's the point in calling this one Hitman 3??
This is an interesting comparison and I would say the console version is not properly optimized (especially for the ps5) or the pc version is just very well optimized. In every other comparison black ops Cold War, Valhalla, the ps5 performs better than a 2070super in rasterization but here it’s performing 20 percent worse. Doesn’t really make sense. And even comparing the ps5 / series x, they are only 15 percent apart compared to every graphics card. So I’m not sure why the ps5 got such a lower resolution and settings. Still happy to play the game as is but something is a miss here for the ps5.
"4-core CPUs are more of a rarity these days"
my ryzen 3200g is still rocking, even tho i already have a 3060, my cpu might be able to last up to next gen
You fail to ever mention that the Series X version uses higher quality shadows than the PS5 version? Also, why did you choose not to use the Series X version as your primary benchmark for consoles since it is the better performing at native 4k….
Tanks bro!!! Pc ❤️
Comparison is made from the cut scene, wouldn't be bette some part of the level! Were you have actual game play!
Awesome Game.
So why didn't you show the missing reflections on the series x version and why did you compare the series s version to the series x and not ps5 when it came to textures poor video
X showing its power and we still early days of last gen ports. Best yet to come.
God, the neckbeards are still arguing over which of their precious consoles is better lmao
Both are good at different things. Stop worshipping products and companies.
I just got a series X! I can't wait to check this out.
And now you're talking about "Glacier Engine shines" on eurogamer, just look at the glare this engine is totally broken you morons.
I'm playing this on an RTX 3090 at 4k and everything maxed out, and it still stays over 60fps. Looks quite nice.
This is where the PS5 starts losing the sprint races. It was inevitable.
PS5 vs XSX => PS5 slight better fps, XSX slight better reso..
.. and PC better than both, but slight more crashes / less stable (?)
@5:05 PS5 has no grass!
I can't believe how stupid this microscopic pixels difference searching is! If the game is great to play you'll see no difference on any platform when playing (PS5/Xbox Series X & S/PS4/Xbox One/Windows) you're just enjoying it. BUT if the gameplay is boring or disappointing not even 10 times better graphics than this can save the game.
I was going to say my 3080 rtx desktop blows away the ps5 but hell my 2070 super laptop can take care of that light weight LMAO
