"For Bond, it's not exactly that. It's not a reskin of that."
I said it not long ago; this so-called 007 game looks like HITMAN without hair; and I wasn't joking. The similarities are too pronounced to ignore. From the NPC behaviors, stealth mechanics, the architectural design and level layout; the DNA of HITMAN is unmistakable.
While ioi has added new elements like drivable vehicles, those additions don't mask the fact that much of the core; including visual assets and systemic design; feels directly carried over from their previous work of HITMAN. For a title marketed as a fresh take on the iconic 007 franchise, it's hard not to see this as a re-skin rather than a truly original IP.
The statement, made during an interview by a senior licensing producer at IO Interactive, comes on the heels of growing fanbase concern that the James Bond-centric title may be closer to the studio's Hitman series than a fresh start.
