IO-Interactive, the developer behind Hitman has revealed that it has regrettably had to layoff talented staff.
This comes after the news earlier this month that IO-Interactive had been dropped by Square Enix after sub-par results for the latest Hitman game.
Unfortunately, it doesn’t look good for the future of Hitman or IO-Interactive. We hope that the studio can recover and that all the talented developers are able to go on to find employment.
The full statement from IO-Interactive is available below.
