While Hitman 3's Nightcrawler challenge is certainly not the most difficult optional task in the game, it can be one of the most tedious. Indeed, players will need to exercise quite a lot of patience if they want to take a photo of the sheikh sleeping, as he is simply in no rush to have a rest. That said, with some persistence and just the bit of instruction contained within this guide, fans should find it fairly easy to finish this Hitman 3 challenge.
The first step to tackling the Nightcrawler challenge is to obtain a Penthouse Guard disguise. This disguise is comprised of a black uniform and a red beret, and it can be obtained from a myriad of NPCs found in Hitman 3's Dubai location. For those players that may be having some trouble finding a Penthouse Guard, the one standing in front of the security room on Level 3 makes a perfect target.

After donning this disguise in Hitman 3, players must now locate the sheikh, and he can ultimately be found traveling through the Atrium. More specifically, the sheikh will make his way across the Atrium, into the bar area, and up some stairs to have a brief rendezvous with Marcus Stuyvesant. Fans can catch up with the NPC at any point during this journey, identifying him by his dark robe and trailing Penthouse Guards, and they should stay near to him once he has been located.
This is where things can become a bit monotonous with the Nightcrawler challenge, as the sheikh will often take a fairly leisurely stroll through the level. This stroll will eventually end in his Penthouse, though, and fans simply need to pursue him until that occurs. Then, once a player is in the room with this Hitman 3 NPC, they should wait until he lies down in his bed, pull out their cameras, and snap some photos of the sleeping sheikh to complete the challenge.
To note, some players indicate that the Nightcrawler challenge is not being marked as complete regardless of how many photos they take of the sheikh. Unfortunately, this appears to be a bug that is impacting a number of photo-based challenges in Hitman 3, and there is no known workaround at the time of writing. As such, players may want to hold off on tackling this task until there is definitive word from developer IO Interactive that the issue has been fixed.
Hitman 3 will be available for PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Stadia, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X.
