As with previous games in the series, each location (with the exception of the Romania mission), is a large, complex sandbox environment that the player can freely explore for infiltration and assassination opportunities. [6] Players will gradually discover "persistent shortcuts", creating new pathways that can be used in future playthroughs. [7] With the exception of the Berlin level, [8] players are assigned several assassination targets, which can be highlighted using 47's instinct vision. Instinct vision will also highlight all relevant items of interest. [9] Using stealth tactics are key to 47's success. 47 can gain access to restricted areas of the game by obtaining a disguise either by incapacitating non-player characters (NPCs) or by finding it somewhere in the map. [10] [11] Eavesdropping on conversations between NPC can also open up new ways for assassinations. Players may also encounter several "mission stories" in each level, which serve as a set of guided instructions that reveal opportunities for unconventional assassinations. [9] To avoid detection, players should avoid performing actions that would be deemed as suspicious, such as crouching or running in the open. [12] The player's disguise may also affect what actions a player may perform. For instance, dressing as a guard allows 47 to wander around the map with guns and weapons without drawing attention from other characters. [12] Some NPCs, called enforcers, can see through the player's disguise. [10] Guards have several states of alert level. Some may be suspicious of 47, who must attempt to blend in and mingle with the crowd to avoid drawing further attention. If the player is spotted performing an illegal action, 47 may be compromised and guards will begin searching for him. To avoid this, he must incapacitate the witnesses or change his current outfit.

Wake up, my friend. It's the dawn of a new day, and you have things to do", echoing the opening of Hitman: Codename 47. Higton, Ian (23 January 2022).

The base game features six locations: Dubai, Dartmoor, Berlin, Chongqing, Mendoza, and the Carpathian Mountains in Romania. A post-launch update introduced a new island location set in the Andaman Sea. Unlike its predecessors, IO Interactive wanted the game to be more story-driven. As a result, the game had a more mature and serious tone. After years of working on Hitman games, the team was more willing to experiment with its mission design, shaking up the existing gameplay loop and realizing ideas that they had been unable or afraid to implement in the past, such as framing assassination opportunities within a murder-mystery in the Dartmoor level. While gameplay is largely similar to its predecessor, developers were inspired by immersive sim games when adding many of the new game's features. Higham, Michael (29 January 2021).
