IO Interactive is focusing on James Bond for now.
IO Interactive’s Hitman games didn’t get off to the best of starts. With Hitman: Absolution being seen as a bit of a flop, the studio then decided to pretty much reboot the series with the trilogy now known as Hitman World of Assassination.
According to an interview with Eurogamer, IO Interactive labelled its trilogy as such in order to effectively put Hitman on a shelf for the time being.
