Hitman World of Assassination VR motion sickness: what to expect
Steam publishes no per-title comfort rating for Hitman World of Assassination. Its stealth pacing is naturally gentler than run and gun shooters, and the notable VR impressions thread on its forum spends more words on the sparse VR settings menu than on nausea.

Where the comfort work matters in Hitman World of Assassination VR
Creeping through crowds at walking pace produces far less optical flow than sprinting, which is why slow stealth tends to sit at the gentle end of smooth movement games. The linked impressions thread from the PC VR update is level headed about the mode: workable, improved by its one VR graphics setting, and thin on options. A huge flat fanbase is testing VR through this game, and that is the realistic picture to hand them.
