IO Interactive, famed for the Hitman series, is venturing into uncharted territory with Project Fantasy, their upcoming online RPG. This article explores Project Fantasy and IO Interactive's ambitious vision for the genre.
Project Fantasy marks a bold departure for IO Interactive, moving beyond the stealth-focused gameplay of Hitman. In an interview, Veronique Lallier, Chief Development Officer at IO Interactive, described Project Fantasy as a "vibrant game" that avoids darker fantasy themes. She emphasized it's a "passion project" for the studio.
While details are scarce, Lallier expressed immense excitement for the project, calling it "very close to my heart." The studio's commitment to expanding its team with developers, artists, and animators specifically for Project Fantasy suggests a significant investment in pushing the boundaries of the online RPG genre. Speculation points towards a live service model, though IO Interactive remains tight-lipped on specifics. Interestingly, the game's official IP, codenamed "Project Dragon," is listed as an RPG shooter.
IO Interactive is drawing inspiration from the Fighting Fantasy book series, aiming to integrate branching narratives and a fresh approach to storytelling. Unlike linear RPG narratives, Project Fantasy will feature a dynamic story system where player choices meaningfully impact quests and events.
Beyond innovative storytelling, IO Interactive prioritizes community engagement. Lallier highlighted the importance of player feedback in Hitman's success, emphasizing the studio's commitment to fostering a positive relationship with its community.
With IO Interactive's proven track record and commitment to innovation, Project Fantasy is poised to redefine the online RPG landscape. Through innovative storytelling, interactive environments, and strong community engagement, the game aims to deliver a truly unique and captivating experience.
