Hitman Freelancer mode, which adds a new roguelite structure to the many huge levels this trilogy has produced since 2016, has been an unquestionable delight. But it doesn’t always explain itself well, often saving tutorial prompts for after you’ve already tried something.
For most of the new features that’s fine, but it’s left lots of folks in the dark on how to deal with these new safes that regularly appear on each map. There’s an icon on your mini-map telling you where the safe is, and it lights up when you use Agent 47’s hitman vision–but when you actually approach the thing it just tells you that you need three codes to open it, with no guidance for where one would get these codes.
There are two ways to open these safes: by finding those codes and opening it the normal way, or by using explosives to blow them open. We’ll walk you through the more clandestine way first.
