You can unlock 17 shortcuts in Hitman 3 by opening up areas where there’s a yellow metal shown. This is present on doors, vents as well as ladders giving you easy access to locations. You may need to interact with them or use a Crowbar to break the lock. When you do that, the area will stay opened for you to get into this place on your next playthrough.

You will find shortcut locations in Dubai, Dartmoor, Berlin, Chongqing, Mendoza and Carpathian Mountains. Some ladders are on the terrace, there are doors in the basement, atrium, maintenance and lots more.

If it’s a locked section that needs a Crowbar to break it open, you can do that or else all you will have to do is open the door to enter or kick a ladder. Here’s where to find a Crowbar in Dartmoor and Dubai that you can use. Even if you don’t intend to use them to unlock shortcuts, you can pick up Crowbars and keep them with you without getting noticed with a weapon.

For players who love to approach the challenges in Hitman 3 in different ways, unlocking shortcuts is the best way to experience it. Even more so if you are into speed runs. But if you are someone who simply wants to finish the game, opening up shortcuts is not that necessary. But it does give you 1000 XP when you unlock one shortcut and you will be on your way to earn the Shortcut Killer trophy/achievement as well.

That’s everything you need to know about shortcuts. While you are here, check out how to smartly use Remote Explosives as Agent 47.
