Hitman, there’s
Project 007 and a brand new unannounced title as part of a new IP. A series of job listings that appeared yesterday have revealed some interesting details about the latter two of those projects.
Project 007 is a game set in the world of James Bond, but it won’t be based on any movie released so far. It will instead have a completely original story where players “earn their 00 status in the very first James Bond origin story“. The premise gives the studio the chance to design a Secret Agent with a unique appearance that doesn’t have the voice or any similarity to any existing Bond actor. According to a listing for Senior Gameplay Producer, the studio is creating prototypes for “shooting, melee combats and other systems.” They’ve also created a “brand-new animation system” and “a brand-new AI framework.”

IO Interactive is in a pretty decent spot right now. The decision to go solo with its popular Hitman IP has paid off tremendously, as Hitman 3 has been the best-selling release in the rebooted trilogy. What’s more, the company recently announced that it would be tackling the James Bond franchise for its next project, a seemingly great fit for the team that’s churned out some incredible stealth experiences. Now, we may have another major title to look forward to, as IO Interactive is reportedly developing a fantasy RPG for Xbox currently codenamed Project Dragon.
These reports go back to a couple of different sources. Windows Central reports that it has received insider information that IO Interactive was in talks with Microsoft to develop a new fantasy RPG. Eurogamer then corroborated these reports, saying that it has also caught wind of a fantasy project in the early stages of development from the Hitman team.
