The Hitman 3 Switch release date has been confirmed, and you won't need to wait any longer to play on Switch than you will on any other console - as long as you have a good internet connection.

Developer IO Interactive previously confirmed that Hitman 3 will be released on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and Stadia on January 20, but it left Switch off the announcement at the time. Now the company has confirmed that the Hitman 3 Switch release date is also set for January 20.

The Nintendo Switch version of Hitman 3 doesn't run on the console's hardware. Instead, it pipes in gameplay via cloud streaming technology, much like the Stadia version. This allows it to have visuals and performance that are comparable to the other platforms on a system with weaker innards, but it also requires that Hitman 3 on Switch has "a stable and permanent internet connection" to be played.
