If I can't enchant a head-seeking homing briefcase, I'm out.
boiling away somewhere behind the scenes, IO Interactive has revealed yet another project. The Danish studio has announced inI was curious about what the"online" part of online fantasy RPG meant—after all, you could plausibly describe Hitman as an online game even though it's single-player—but IOI makes it sound familiar.

That's… pretty much your lot as far as announced detail goes, although we can tell from the artwork at the top of the page that we're sure as heck gonna see some willowy elf-folk and wide, squat dwarven lads. Even the job postings associated with Project Fantasy on IOI's site don't reveal much.
So don't get too excited just yet: This one seems like it's in the earliest of early stages. So early, in fact, that its announcement post was a call for job applications more than a proper reveal.

It does sound quite nice in Copenhagen, though. Maybe senior combat designer is my calling.
Whatever Project Fantasy ends up being, I'm excited to see it. I have fallen head over heels for Hitman's freelancer mode in the last couple of weeks, dedicating an embarrassing amount of my free time to screwing up assassinations spectacularly in a range of exotic locations around the globe. IOI seems like it's only going from strength to creative strength at the minute, so I'm intrigued to see what they do with a fantasy game.
