IO Interactive Unveils Project 007: A Young Bond Trilogy
IO Interactive, renowned for the Hitman series, is developing a new James Bond game, Project 007. This isn't just a single title; the studio aims to create a trilogy chronicling a younger Bond's journey to becoming 007.
A Fresh Take on 007
CEO Hakan Abrak revealed that Project 007 will feature an original storyline, independent of any previous Bond film portrayals. Players will experience Bond's early years as a secret agent, before achieving his iconic double-O status. Abrak described the game as "a young Bond for gamers," allowing players to connect with and grow alongside this version of the character.
The project leverages IO Interactive's expertise in immersive, stealth-focused gameplay, but also presents unique challenges. This is the studio's first foray into an external IP, and Abrak expressed his ambition to create a defining Bond gaming experience. The goal is to build a lasting Bond universe within the gaming world, complementing the film franchise.
What We Know So Far
-
Story: A completely original Bond origin story, unconnected to any film actors. While details are scarce, the tone is reportedly closer to Daniel Craig's Bond than Roger Moore's.
-
Gameplay: While specifics remain under wraps, early hints suggest a more scripted experience than Hitman's open-ended style, focusing on "spycraft fantasy" and potentially incorporating gadgets. Job listings indicate a possible "sandbox storytelling" approach with advanced AI. It's expected to be a third-person action game.
-
Release Date: No official release date has been announced, but IO Interactive is optimistic about the game's progress.
The anticipation for Project 007 is high. IO Interactive's vision of a young Bond trilogy promises a fresh and engaging experience for both long-time Bond fans and newcomers alike. More details are expected soon.
