Spoiler

Hitman 3 not out yet, but already something new is coming:

 

[DalekFlay]

All the rumors are that it's an online focused game, so I am not excite, but we'll see.

 

[Ghulgothas]

Fingers crossed for Mini Ninjas 2.

Ugh. Games as a service guaranteed in that case.

PowerTorment I wish to offer my apologies to the IOI team for my recent outbursts on the discord and on twitter. I deleted the tweet and got banned from the discord.

I do not know what kind of anguish I have caused, but I am deeply sorry for it.

My announcement of God's punishment was uncalled for and was too disturbing. Of course I still hate exclusivity deals, but I want to apologize in the form of offering myself as a character for the next HITMAN game.

Fingers crossed for Mini Ninjas 2.

i actually enjoyed it a lot with my little brother

It's a sad way for a studio to die - an exclusivity deal followed by an online multiplayer game.

What's there to apologize for? I've been a loyal hitman fan since the first game. IOI shat an enormous turd on every fan's head by going for an exclusive Chinese plant deal.

[Falksi]

Wow.

 

[Wirdschowerdn]

Pretty please be first-person. Also pretty please don't be a modernfag Bond game. 60s - 80s is okay.

 

[Sranchammer]

Um...the new Bond is a woman. This just seems wrong.

#NotMyBond
#GirlsGetItDone

 

[conan_edw]

This is really a good match, curios to see how will they approach it.

 

[Wunderbar]

A match made in heaven.

Frist origin Bond story sounds like this might actually be a SP game. Being a Bond game I expect there will a a lot more action than in their Hitman games.

Anyway, I hope the devs actually make a Bond game and not just a hitman reskin.

I like Goldeneye as much as anyone who had an N64, but it's honestly a waste of the Bond IP to just make an action/shooter game. The character does a lot more than just shoot people (at least prior to the Craig era), and ideally a Bond video game would play something like Deus Ex.

 

[deuxhero]

Huh, was wondering what happened to the Bond game license after Activision fucked it up so badly there hasn't been a game in the franchise since 2012. Studio isn't a terrible match, but I'll wait and see.

 

[Caim]

So it's going to be Alpha Protocol but this time it's going to actually be James Bond.

 

[<3sRichardSimmons]

Seems like a huge coup for IO to land this license. It was just a few years ago that it seemed overwhelmingly unlikely they were going to survive the decade.

Happy for them, they're one of the only AAA developers who actually seem to care about intelligent systems design in their games. Here's hoping they stick to their chops with this instead of just making another generic corridor shooter.

 

[forumvisitor#451]

Makes sense, nuHitman is basically espionage infiltration simulator, so not very far technically and gameplay-wise.

If this uses their Glacier engine with its AI, and they will make great levels as for nuHitman, it's going to be FUCKING GREAT.

Reminds me that it could be sort of cold-war infiltration game from Looking Glass we never got...

 

[luj1]

Its not gonna be an arena shooter like GoldenEye so my guess is a Tomb Raider clone with a powerful (possibly black) wombyn

 

[Catacombs]

Its not gonna be an arena shooter like GoldenEye

Making a modern GoldenEye is an easy cash grab.

 

[LESS T_T]

It's interesting how they get to make something grander without Square Enix's grasp.

Looking forward to it.

It's pretty helpful they categorized job posting by project. Job posting hints this is also 3rd person game. https://career.ioi.dk/ad/ai-programmer/0e2rre

Experience working with 3rd person action games.

Also

All the rumors are that it's an online focused game, so I am not excite, but we'll see.

Looking at job postings, 007 game might have online features similar to the new Hitman trilogy but the multiplayer focused game is yet another unannounced project.

Kinda crazy they've got three projects rolling as an indie, but I guess their track record let them get plenty of funding.
