Hitman: World of Assassination fans, here’s a little update that you might want to note. The release of the game on PlayStation VR2, originally scheduled for this December, has been pushed back to March 27, 2025. This announcement was first made in September during the State of Play presentation by IO Interactive. The delay, according to the studio, allows them to refine the game’s quality further and add exciting new features like active manual reloading.
IO Interactive shared more details on the PlayStation Blog about why they made this tough decision. Initially, the release was planned for December 2024, but unforeseen factors made them rethink the timeline. Understanding that anticipation was high, especially after the positive feedback they received in the announcement, they felt it important to only release the game when it meets the high standards that players expect.
Their focus remains on delivering a VR experience that’s not only immersive but also polished to perfection. The extra development time will also let them include certain features in the PS VR2 version that they were eager to implement, such as active reloading—making the game more engaging.
This marks IO Interactive’s third venture bringing their popular Hitman series into the realm of VR, following earlier efforts for Quest, and PC VR/PSVR. This new release will incorporate every level from the rebooted trilogy and come with exciting features like dual wielding and room-scale gameplay, introducing fresh controls and mechanics that aim to redefine the gameplay.
On the PlayStation VR2, you’ll also experience “positional interactions,” requiring players to physically mimic actions rather than just tapping a button. Picture yourself swiping a keycard or turning a lock instead of merely pushing a button. Quest items take on a tangible quality, allowing detailed inspections right in your hand.
Mark your calendars for March 27, 2025, when Hitman: World of Assassination becomes available on PlayStation VR2. It will be accessible as a paid upgrade for those who already own the PS5 flatscreen version, costing just $10. Get ready to dive into this thrilling VR experience that promises to revolutionize how we see Hitman.
