IO Interactive has released a new trailer for Hitman III that showcases the virtual reality mode of the game that will be available using the PlayStation VR.

Here is an overview of the game:
Powered by IO Interactive’s proprietary Glacier engine, Hitman III puts you in full control of Agent 47’s deadly abilities, his razor-sharp instincts and his entire arsenal of weapons and tools that you can use to master the art of assassination. Get to grips with the new camera that can open locks and analyze your performance with the return of post-mission Playstyles that are awarded based on how you complete missions.
On next-gen consoles, Hitman III will support 4K visuals, 60 frames per second, HDR, and faster loading times. The game will also bring refinements to interaction animation and AI, as well as Glacier’s crowd technology that will allow up to 300 NPCs in a location at once.
Hitman III players can import locations from the previous games in the trilogy and have more than 20 locations under one roof. All of the improvements to rendering, animation and AI introduced with Hitman III can be enjoyed across all three games, making Hitman III the ultimate place to play the entire World of Assassination trilogy.
Hitman III will also support PlayStation VR at launch in January 2021—but it’s not only Hitman III locations that are supported. Every location from the World of Assassination trilogy can be enjoyed in VR when you play them through Hitman III.
Hitman III will launch for the Xbox Series X and S, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, PC via the Epic Games Store, and Google Stadia on January 20. Hitman III – Cloud Version is also in development for the Nintendo Switch.

Why is the PS4 version the only one with VR support? I mean it's rest that the PS5 version gets the digital PS4 version as well... But seems weird to me.
Of course they do not only an exclusivity deal with Epic, but also a VR exclusivity deal (by the sounds of it). This is when you know a dev studio isn't doing so great, that they need to make two deals.
