PSVR 2 Welcomes Hitman World of Assassination in December
Hey there, gamers! Have you heard the news? The revamped Hitman World of Assassination is making its way to PSVR 2 this December, courtesy of IO Interactive. Get ready to dive into a world of espionage and stealth like never before, with dual wielding and a host of VR-native tweaks specifically designed for console VR.
A Paid Upgrade for Existing Owners
If you’re already a proud owner of Hitman World of Assassination on PS5, you’re in luck! The PSVR 2 version will be available as a paid upgrade for just $9.99 / €9.99 / £8.99. That’s a steal for all the new features and enhancements coming your way.
What to Expect in the PSVR 2 Version
So, what exactly can you expect from the PSVR 2 version of Hitman World of Assassination? Get ready for dual-wielding action, full ambidexterity, and room-scale play that will immerse you in the world of assassination like never before. With improved controls and gameplay mechanics, you’ll experience new interactions such as active reloading, on-body weapon holstering, sniper scope aiming, and manual motions for taking on disguises.
It’s worth noting that the PSVR 2 version seems to be a separate venture from the Meta Quest 3 version, Hitman 3 VR Reloaded, which launched earlier this year. While the Meta Quest 3 version was a collaboration between XR Games and IO Interactive, the PSVR 2 version aims to retain more of the original game art style, offering a different VR experience.
The Evolution of Hitman in VR
For fans of the series, this isn’t the first time Hitman has ventured into the world of VR. Hitman 3 introduced a VR mode for PlayStation VR and later for PC VR, showcasing a reworked cover system and free-form movement for melee combat. The small team at IO Interactive behind the VR mode brought a unique touch to the game, enhancing the overall experience for players.
Hitman 3, released earlier this year, marked the conclusion of the thrilling trilogy that IO Interactive had been crafting for five years. In our review, Jim highlighted the evolution of the series, stating, “It’s a flashier, more fluid evolution of IO’s original template – a rewarding conclusion to one of the most unique video game franchises around.”
