'Hitman GO' (ALL) Launches VR Edition

Hitman GO is a turn-based strategy game where you will strategically navigate fixed spaces on a grid to avoid enemies, infiltrate well-guarded locations and take out your target on beautifully rendered diorama-style set pieces.

You really have to think about each move and all the Hitman tools of the trade you would expect are included; disguises distractions, sniper rifles and even 47’s iconic Silverballers.

The definitive edition has been updated with improved graphics, new control schemes optimized for consoles and PC, integrated achievements including a platinum trophy, and cross-save functionality allowing users to seamlessly transfer save files between PlayStation systems to take Hitman GO: Definitive Edition on the go. The game includes all of its original content as well as all subsequent content updates (Opera, Airport and St. Petersburg boxes), and all in-app purchases have been removed.

Fans of the GO series and VR early adopters can finally experience this completely reimagined, minimalistic take on the Hitman universe.  

“Following Hitman GO’s successful release on mobile, PS 4, Vita and PC (Steam), the VR release feels like a natural progression for the title.” said Patrick Naud, Head of Studio at Square Enix Montr é al. “By embracing this new platform, we can provide gamers with a richer level of interaction with Hitman GO’s beautiful board game aesthetics and physicality at a level of immersion we’ve never been able to achieve before.”

The VR Edition has been reimagined with space, comfort and accessibility in mind. Head-tracking movement, simple, intuitive controls and an abstract yet immersive VR environment allow for a completely new experience. The game features all 91 levels, including all content updates (Opera, Airport and St. Petersburg boxes). There are no in-app purchases.

Hitman GO: VR Edition is now available for digital download on both the Samsung Gear VR ($7.99) and Oculus Rift ($9.99).
