Hitman developer IO Interactive hopes its elusive James Bond game 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Project 007 becomes a trilogy.
In an interview with , IO Interactive boss Hakan Abrak shared precious few details about Project 007. The game was revealed all the way back in November 202𒉰0 and we still have𝔉n't seen anything beyond the teaser trailer that was shown at the time. Hell, the game still doesn't have an official title.
Despite its long development, Abrak sa🌼id production is going "amazingly well" and that there's "a lot of cool stuff coming up." The project is being fully funded, developed, and published by IO Interactive itself, Abrak added. He also said the studio's considerable experience developing stealth games with the Hitman series, which began way back in 2000 with Hitman: Codename 47, makes him co🎐nfident in its ability to tackle an original James Bond story.
"We absolutely feel like 20-plus years of training for the agent fantasy, creating an agent that travels the world and globetrotting whatnot, has given us some know-how on that," Abrak said. "But obviousꦏly James Bond is a different IP. It's a huge IP. It's not our IP. It's actually the first IP that is not our original IP from ground up".
Project 007 is a completely original story in the 007 franchise, which means, in Abrak's words, it isn't "a gamification of a movie." Instead, it tells the origin story of a young James Bond, giving IO the opportunity to create a new story that the studio hopes will be the s💮tart of a new series.
"It's completely beginning and becoming a story, hopefully for a big trilogy out there in the future," Abrak said. "And equally important and exciting, it's a new Bond. It's a Bond we built from ground up for gamers. It's extremely excitingꦚ with all the tradition and all the history there is there together to work on this together with the family of creating a young Bond for gamers; a Bond that the gamers can ꦫcall their own and grow with."
The most recent Hitman game was developed and published by IO Interactive in 2021, and it's now working on both Project 007 and 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Project Fantasy, the online RPG it revealed last year. In July, we talked to IO Interactive's chief development officer about the state of the Hitman studio⛦ in 2024, including Project Fantasy, 007, and s♎taying afloat in a tumultuous industry.
After earning an English degree 🅰from ASU, I worked as a corporate copy editor while freelancing for places like SFX Magazine, Screen Rant, Game Revolution, and MMORPG on the side. I got my big br𓃲eak here in 2019 with a freelance news gig, and I was hired on as GamesRadar's west coast Staff Writer in 2021. That means I'm responsible for managing the site's western regional executive branch, AKA my home office, and writing about whatever horror game I'm too afraid to finish.
