According to a blog on Gamereactor, the Danish Eurogamer site is supposed to have information on IO-Interactive’s (and Square Enix) Hitman franchise. The blogger also provides an image of what looks like a genuine poster of Agent 47.
IO Interactive has had some big things to celebrate this fall, including the 25th anniversary of its "Hitman" franchise.
IO Interactive art director Rasmus Poulsen tells Pocket Tactics how Patrick Gibson's James Bond is influenced by unexpected places in 007 First Light.
I mean as someone who grew up playing all the 007 ganes, this fits right in. The games have always been like that. Start slow and sneaky, sh#t hits the fan and it turns onto an action set piece.
I really hope in the future any other Bond games made by different developers will use their own Bond and Universe rather than just using whoever is playing Bond in the films. It's a video game, they should have the freedom to do their own take rather than being restricted by what the films are doing.
Hopefully outfits and Easter eggs found in this game won't just all be of Craigs era, really want to see some original Sean Connery stuff.
Tune in for over 30 minutes of 00 Agent action with IO Interactive at 11am PT / 7pm BST.
With no more E3 it's just what we have been left with. Hate minium efforts by these companies. I was so disappointed to find out there was no Xbox conference at gamescom. Those were the days when we had 1-2 hour showcases
Sony is falling really low to promote an uncharted clone.. this is unimaginable 4 years ago
State of Play is an game advertisement platform. Nintendo and Microsoft do the same things with their platforms as well.
Those others promote more first party than third. Sony is overwhelmingly mostly third party the last 3 years.
@Chris
But you were ok with Borderlands 4 SoP?
And FFVIIR? (Not 1st party and It only had launch exclusivity)
@zubbs= obscured: “ At least Xbox still does a summer showcase. Sony does nothing”
Hey obscured at least Sony is promoting a game that not many in the community know about 🤷🏿
At least try to contain your excitement till we know more about this game 🤣
Thanks for sharing Alt account comment. It has been marked as spam as usual. Another ridiculous comment from him... When will he learn that all his comments get removed because they are mostly stupid.
I didn't know IO Interactive were a sony first party studio 🤔😂 they could have showed this at Gamescom instead of a *sony state of play*
They are not a first party studio. This game is also releasign on pc, xbox and I think switch
That’s the point. Why even have a state of play for it.
I think you misunderstood op’s meaning.
Its not unprecedented. Sony has done State of Plays for 3rd party games before. Just this year they had one for Borderlands 4.
well, it is a new original story so that makes perfect sense. they are shooting for a trilogy, we'll get "experienced" James Bond eventually.
Yeah they could have done a bit more to him, maybe make him more like Flemings original sketch of Bond.
He looks like Ethan Hunt or some redesign of Nathan Drake
Supposed to be like an early Origin story. Makes sense!
Fun fact: The actor also played Dexter Morgan in Dexter Original Sin!
I think we're starting to feel the effects of the new leadership and regime under Sony now. They've been through changes many times in last console gens but they've always remained to their mantra of great games and gamers coming first.
Jim was terrible but at least he knew the games we liked even though he was the pioneer of LS push early this gen for PS. Current Sony is seemingly clueless. I know Santa Monica is ready to announce their game at some point this gen it's been way too long. Stand Alone Venom game for 2026 could be on the cards. Maybe some Saros gameplay.
Maybe they have one more State Of Play in them and the game Awards. So maybe I'm speaking too soon(probably am). It's just getting annoying and tiring trying to figure out what Sony is doing anymore.
Wow Square Enix (or IO Interactive), if this is true I have no idea how to react right now.
I hope this isn't truee
let me guess he's gonna have hair.
where's the "don't care"option on the rumor bar?
i want only to play as Agent 47 not a female assassin ... Based on hitman movie ohh noo.:{ Hope is not true. Beared 47 :D
