Hitman developer IO Interactive opens Barcelona studio and eyes third-party publishing

IO Interactive has opened a third studio in Barcelona to support development of Hitman, James Bond and its unannounced new IP.
The news was revealed during GI Live: Online in a keynote talk featuring Hakan Abrak, the CEO of IO Interactive. The Barcelona office is described as an 'elite' studio and joins the company's teams in Copenhagen and Malmö.
"After the [Hitman] trilogy, it's safe to say that Agent 47 needs a bit of a breather. He needs a break," Abrak revealed in a video interview with
GamesIndustry.biz. "But that doesn't mean things aren't happening in the World of Assassination. We have some pretty cool ideas that we're looking into, and some of those will bear fruit. You'll seem some development there that's a bit different.
