Hitman developer IO Interactive is opening a new studio in Malmö, Sweden
Copenhagen-based Hitman developer IO Interactive has announced that it's opening a second development studio, situated in Malmö, Sweden.
The new studio will operate in tandem with IO's existing Copenhagen team, and has been established, according to company CEO Hakan Abrak, in order to "strengthen IO Interactive's commitment to deliver exceptional content to the Hitman franchise, community and all our fans". Increasing its development staff will also enable IO to "expand our muscles for creating brand-new and exciting endeavours, new universes, new franchises."
It has, after all, been quite some time since IO released anything other than the Hitman series. The developer's most recent non-Hitman game was 2010's Kane & Lynch 2: Dog Days, while its last new IP, action-adventure Mini Ninjas, appeared in 2009.
