Hitman 3 VR: Reloaded gets its first gameplay trailer

The first gameplay trailer has been released for Hitman 3 VR: Reloaded, and can be viewed above.

Set to release exclusively on Meta Quest 3, the new VR version of Hitman 3 will feature dual-wielding and a new cel-shaded art style.

The game has still yet to receive a release date, with the trailer only saying it’s “coming soon”.

When it does release, it will cost $29.99 / €27.99 / £22.99, and there’s currently a pre-order discount of 10%.

The game is being developed and published by Leeds, UK-based VR studio XR Games, which previously worked on such VR titles as Zombieland: Headshot Fever, Jurassic World Aftermath and ForeVR Pool.

According to XR Games’s description, the game will include:

• “Dual-Wielding: A series first, Hitman 3 VR: Reloaded introduces dual-wielding, allowing players to use two weapons or items simultaneously, adding a new dimension to strategic gameplay.”
• “A brand new cel-shaded art-style: See Agent 47 in a whole new light with a stunning new cel-shaded visual style.”
• “Enhanced Interactivity: Experience a new level of realism with interactive environments that respond to every action.”
• “Overhauled user interface: Hitman 3’s UI has been completely redesigned for VR, ensuring intuitive control and navigation.”
• “Improved movement options: Hitman 3 VR: Reloaded now offers fluid and natural locomotion options, making it easier than ever to navigate complex environments with speed and stealth.”
• “Many more improvements throughout: From visual enhancements to refined gameplay mechanics, this is the most immersive untethered Hitman VR experience to date.”

Hitman developer IO Interactive announced in 2020 that it was developing an officially licensed James Bond game. With the working title Project 007, it will feature an original James Bond origin story.
