IO Interactive is shifting its focus from the Hitman series to develop the new James Bond game, 007 First Light. The company plans to integrate a live-service model reminiscent of Hitman: World of Assassination, which implies the potential for ongoing missions and content post-launch. According to CEO Hakan Abrak, players can look forward to enhanced stealth and combat mechanics in this title. Additionally, the game explores Bond's origin story, unconnected to previous adaptations, and features classic villains, suggesting nostalgic elements for fans.
"We obviously have tons of experience now from World of Assassination, and tons of experience on how to extend a single-player experience by giving desirable free content to players".
"In Hitman, you have these live challenges. And besides the things that we are able to do in Hitman, we can do more actiony things and more kinetic challenges in Bond."
