Eidos bigwig Ian Livingstone has crushed rumour that Batman: Arkham Asylum developer Rocksteady will be taking the reins for the next Hitman game.
Hitman ”always has” and ”always will” be IO Interactive’s, and that ”still continues to be so.” An actor’s online CV pegged Rocksteady as the guys for the job, after doing some mo-cap.
”This is the first I’ve heard about it. Hitman always has been and always will be IO Interactive’s baby, which it still continues to be so,” said Livingstone, reports PWGM.
”Rocksteady are not involved with the development of Hitman 5.” After having played the Batman: Arkham Asylum demo I wouldn’t have begrudged the team over at Rocksteady getting their hands dirty with number 47. What about you, videogamer? Played the demo yet? It’s awesome.
