Why are the HITMAN 2 add ons unavailable?
The HITMAN 2 add ons are unavailable because the game has been delisted from sale, and its content is now absorbed into HITMAN 3, which is rebranded as HITMAN: World of Assassination. This change allows HITMAN 3 owners to access the content of the previous two Hitman games, including HITMAN 2, for free, but it also means that HITMAN 2 and its add ons are no longer available for purchase as a standalone title.
