Last year it was announced with great anticipation and surprise that IO Interactive was developing the next James Bond title, currently called Project 007, without further information. Many players viewed this combination with great hope for the project, damong which were also the owners of the IP.
Through an interview with GamesIndustry, the former director of interactive business development at MGM Robert Marick, spoke among many things, about the push that the chain was making to bring its projects and IP to video games. Like most users, he said that James Bond and IO Interactive were the perfect couple, for the quality and style that the studio has when it comes to offering stealth and strategy games.
James Bond and IO Interactive are a “match made in heaven”
IO Interactive will work on new IPs in addition to Hitman and 007, according to its CEO
Among the many statements that Marick made, he detailed the following (translated): “It all comes down to identifying the right development partner. IO is the authority on stealth and agent-oriented games, so they really were a dream come true in terms of studios to partner with in James Bond. They have a deep passion for intellectual property and are extraordinarily talented. It’s a match made in heaven, IO Interactive and James Bond, and we’re working on something that we think will be very special for the fans. “
Undoubtedly, something good comes from the hand of IO Interactive, especially having one of the most iconic movie sagas of all time, now made a video game. At the moment the study has not released any information about the next James Bond title, but there is no doubt that it will be a good thing considering what they have done over the years with the Hitman saga.
