IO Interactive’s Project 007 game will have an original story and a hero who will move away from the character from the movies.
IO Interactive has been busy over the last few months. license hit man from the Danish studio has never been so popular. hit man, hit man 2 etc hit man 3 were already excellent and very generous taken individually, but IO Interactive wanted to bring them all together in a single named compilation Hitman: World of Assassination. This compilation contains all content from the last three stealth games. The latter received a brand new game mode in January called Freelancer, which takes on the mechanics of the roguelike (it was daring) in a very nice way. From now on IO Interactive will set hit man is on hiatus to focus on two major projects: a fantasy MMORPG and the resulting game from the license James Bond 007. While we didn’t know much about the latter, the two men at the head of the studio decided to say more.
A James Bond as flashy as Agent 47 of the Hitman license?
In an interview with Eurogamer, Christian Elverdam and Hakan Abrak confided in the game, which is currently codenamed “project 007“. They talk about the importance of offering an original story and a character of James Bond that is different from that of the films.
We create an original story. We get to build a James Bond for a gamer audience, which I think is a profound homage to the current state of our industry and the media in the sense that it was about time we had a James Bond character that was It’s not a movie character, it’s a game character in its own right. Earning that trust was a great lesson in humility and we are honored.
They add that to their experience hit mana different breed of secret agent, will serve you well in creating the best James Bond.
Project 007, the beginning of a great story between IO Interactive and James Bond?
So there is no lack of ambition for IO Interactive “Project 007“. The studio seems to have enough leeway to redefine the contours of the iconic license. The game will likely offer a mix of action and infiltration, but should surprise on many levels. Besides the joy of being able to offer an original story, Christian Elverdam and Hakan Abrak conclude that the title will be “the start of something new”. Bond in the coming years? Perhaps. IO Interactive gives itself the means for its ambitions: A fourth studio has just opened in Istanbul. project 007 approaches the quality of the latest games hit man. And, why not, let it be as memorable as the legendary Goldeye 007…
