Whoa, so IO Interactive’s throwing a big bash this week—first time ever! They’re mixing it up with a livestream and an actual event. I mean, what a world, right? Set your clocks for Friday, June 6 at 6pm PDT (or do some math if you’re elsewhere—like 2am BST the next day, yikes). They’re going live on Twitch, YouTube, and even TikTok. Man, that’s like, three screens too many for my brain but okay.
You’ll get all the good stuff: trailers, game demos, maybe even a live Q&A. IO Interactive’s dragging along Build A Rocket Boy folks for the ride too. And, oh, they’re showing off Glacier—nope, not the ice kinda glacier but their game engine. Got that?
CEO Hakan Abrak is kinda buzzing about this. Picture him hyped, celebrating 25 years of HITMAN—yep, 25. Makes me feel old. But he promises surprises, so fingers crossed it’s not just a new hat for Agent 47.
Here’s what we know so far:
-
Hitman World of Assassination: Obviously, they’re milking that anniversary vibe. Expect some fresh content and maybe a few collabs. Could be cool, could be a total curveball.
-
MindsEye: This one’s from Build A Rocket Boy, backed by IOI Partners. It’s like action meets adventure in a thriller suit. And get this—it keeps expanding with new content every month. Launches June 10, 2025. Mark the calendar so you don’t forget.
- 007 First Light: Aaah, Bond. IO Interactive’s got this original game coming up. Nothing beats a new Bond title, right? Too soon to tell; maybe there’s martinis or, I dunno, rocket cars involved?
So, yeah. Set alarms, grab popcorn, whatever floats your boat. IOI’s got something up their sleeve, and I don’t mean a hidden blade. Or do I? Anyways, tune in or zone out. Up to you!
