We simply cannot say at this point, but these unknowns don't dampen our enthusiasm at all. Perhaps Project 007 will be a cross-platform title with a focus on FPS action.

We make this assumption because, as an entirely new IP, IO will almost certainly want to take advantage of all the tech and features next-gen devices possess, without being tethered by the limitations of the aging PS4 and Xbox One. However, if we were to speculate, we'd guess that it will be a stealth-focused title – that's IO's specialty, after all – and it will likely be a next-gen exclusive game, since it's probably still at least a couple years away from a proper announcement. That means we have no idea what genre the game will fall into, what features it will have, or even what platforms it will launch for. For now, the game is in very, very early development – indeed, it's still in the talent recruitment stage. Project 007 is only a working title for the time being, so it will almost certainly change somewhere down the line.

IO Interactive, the studio behind the critically-acclaimed Hitman series, has just announced 'Project 007,' an entirely original Bond story (in other words, not based on any movies) that will allow players to 'earn their 00 status' in the 'very first James Bond origin story.' Something to look forward to: It's been a long time since the world got a proper James Bond game, but it seems we won't have to wait much longer.
