Important locations

On this page of the Hitman 3 guide, you will find a map of Dubai and the most important information about the first story mission called On Top of the World, which takes place here. You will learn the main areas on the map of Dubai, what are the objectives and unique features of this mission, and what are the rewards for reaching the next Dubai mastery levels.

Key information about the On Top of the World mission

1 - Hitman 3: On Top of the World, Dubai - map, mission information - On Top of the World - Dubai - Hitman 3 Guide
  1. The action of this mission takes place in the Burj Al-Ghazali skyscraper in Dubai, which is the tallest building in the world. By default, Agent 47 uses a skydiving suit to infiltrate the inaccessible upper floors of this skyscraper. After landing, the hero must climb the outer balconies and facades of the building to get to the main area of the mission.
  2. There is a party at the top of the skyscraper – thrown to commemorate The Sceptre's inauguration. This opens up a lot of opportunities to blend into the crowd of guests or get a disguise of one of the service or security employees.
  3. The mission targets are Carl Ingram and Marcus Stuyvesant. They are Partners, high-ranking leaders in Providence, a secret and highly influential group that rules the world from the shadows.
  4. By default, Carl Ingram stays in his luxury, heavily guarded apartment.
  5. Marcus Stuyvesant spends his time in the art exhibition room.
  6. Dubai is one of the largest maps in Hitman 3 (the location consists of 7 floors of a skyscraper) and its maximum mastery level is 20. You gain XP needed to advance to the next mastery levels by doing challenges associated with the Dubai map.
Agent 47 can move around the lowest level of the Burj Al-Ghazali, as well as the level above it where the party is taking place - Hitman 3: On Top of the World, Dubai - map, mission information - On Top of the World - Dubai - Hitman 3 Guide

Agent 47 can move around the lowest level of the Burj Al-Ghazali, as well as the level above it where the party is taking place. To get to the staff rooms and guarded areas of the map, you'll have to work a little harder though.

  1. Sneaking: there are many nooks, crannies, pillars, alcoves, and other objects that will help you hide from the guards;
  2. Disguises: you can assume the identity of, e.g. a party security guard, a penthouse security guard, a security staff member, and Zana Kazem - one of the agents working for Crystal Dawn, a Pan-African terrorist organization.
  3. Alternative passages: there are several electronic windows in Burj Al-Ghazali that you can open with the handheld camera. Use them to go outside the building and climb ledges or gutters to reach previously inaccessible floors. It's also worth to remember opening up some useful shortcuts, which we describe a bit below.
The On Top of the World mission has three mission stories that will earn you the trust of both targets, and give you a chance of eliminating them in different ways: Bird Of Prey, (In)Security, and How The Mighty Fall - Hitman 3: On Top of the World, Dubai - map, mission information - On Top of the World - Dubai - Hitman 3 Guide
