Back in June, developer IO Interactive revealed it was resurrecting and reworking Hitman 3’s VR mode, first released for PSVR in 2021, exclusively for Meta Quest 3 – and the studio has now shared first gameplay, showcasing this Reloaded edition’s various enhancements.
On a basic level, Hitman 3 VR: Reloaded is the same game that earned itself a Eurogamer Recommended badge back in the day, meaning players can don goggles and immersively sneak through likes of Dubai, Dartmoor, Berlin, Chongqing, and Mendoza.
However, Reloaded – which is being developed with XR Games – is more than just a straight port of Hitman 3 VR’s scrappy but enjoyable previous release. It also introduces a new flat-shaded artstyle, more “fluid and natural” movement options, an overhauled UI, and – perhaps most notably – dual-wielding, so players can use a different weapon or item in each hand.
Some of that can be seen in Hitman 3 VR: Reloaded’s first gameplay trailer above, which also showcases some its visually refreshed locations, weapons, and characters.
Hitman 3 VR: Reloaded doesn’t have a release date yet, but it’ll cost £24.99/$29.99 USD when it eventually shows up for Meta Quest 3 later this year. And for those that can’t resist the allure of a pre-order bonus, there’s 10 percent off that price if you’re willing to pay up right now.
