About this episode
In this week's episode of The Game Business Show, Chris speaks to IO Interactive CEO Hakan Abrak to talk James Bond, Hitman, Nintendo Switch 2 and working with Build A Rocket Boy on MindsEye. We dive into the studio's prudent approach to making AAA single-player games, and we get some hints on how the team will develop 007 First Light in a similar way to Hitman.
