Hitman: Contracts Mission order: twelve contracts and the Paris finale
Find each original Contracts mission and distinguish flashbacks from the framing story.
Edition covered
Original 2004 Hitman: Contracts with original PC publisher screenshots. This is not the user-created Contracts mode in World of Assassination; its disguises, temporary sedation and ratings follow the older game.
The hotel frames a series of memories

The story opens with a wounded 47 in Paris. Most playable assignments are recollections, so their variety of countries and targets is intentional rather than a continuous single-night itinerary.
| Numbers | Ordered missions | Setting or emphasis |
|---|---|---|
| 1–3 | Asylum Aftermath → The Meat King’s Party → The Bjarkhov Bomb | Escape, party and military facility |
| 4–6 | Beldingford Manor → Rendezvous in Rotterdam → Deadly Cargo | Estate and Rotterdam assignments |
| 7–9 | Traditions of the Trade → Slaying a Dragon → The Wang Fou Incident | Hotel and Hong Kong operations |
| 10–12 | The Seafood Massacre → The Lee Hong Assassination → Hunter and Hunted | Hong Kong conclusion and Paris finale |
The first half mixes escape and contracts
Asylum Aftermath is an escape from the earlier game’s aftermath. Later missions introduce parties, military facilities, estates and Rotterdam locations with different access rules.
| Type | What to inspect | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Target elimination | Target identity and routine | Avoid an unnecessary victim |
| Retrieval | The specific item and access route | Killing targets may not complete the job |
| Rescue | Captive location and release interaction | The person must be freed |
| Escape | Valid exit and remaining tasks | A route can be unavailable before completion |
| Sabotage | Required device and interaction | Gunfire may not replace the marked action |
Several later missions revisit earlier material
The Hong Kong sequence and Traditions of the Trade rework familiar Codename 47 assignments. Follow Contracts’ actual map and objectives because layouts and requirements are not identical to the earlier game.
The final mission returns to the frame
Hunter and Hunted resolves the immediate Paris situation. Check its objective and exit routes rather than expecting the same open approach as a fresh contract.
Hunter and Hunted resolves the immediate Paris situation.
