IO Interactive’s Project 007 may still be several years away from releasing, if the company’s recent earnings report is anything to go by. IO Interactive quickly became one of the most beloved developers out there over the last decade due to its reimagining of the Hitman series. The developer released three new games in the series with plentiful post-launch support, making each one a bang for the player’s buck. Not only that, but the games were a masterclass in level design and could be replayed numerous times before players would see all of the possible outcomes. Naturally, the developer’s ability to create a big stealth game with gadgets, disguises, and exotic locations made them an obvious choice to lead a new James Bond game. At the end of 2020, IO Interactive announced Project 007 was its next game and sadly, it may be a while before we play it.
