Game developer moves to Wihlborgs property in central Malmö

Game developer IO Interactive, currently working on a new James Band game, has signed an agreement with Wihlborgs for 1,800 square metres in the Erik Menved 37 property on Östergatan 20 in Malmö.

IO Interactive currently has offices in Copenhagen, Barcelona and Malmö. Since early 2019, IOI Malmö has developed games like Hitman 2 and 3, and is now working on the new James Bond game Project 007. The company was nominated for the “Greater Copenhagen Award” at the 2022 Malmö Näringslivsgala.

Malmö’s large, innovative video games industry is famous around the world. The city is expected to have 5,000 industry professionals within the next ten years.

“The video games industry in Malmö has grown tremendously. IOI Malmö has been a part of this exciting development since we opened our first office in Game Habitat DevHub at the end of 2018. We are excited to work with Wihlborgs to establish a new home for IOI Malmö with enough space and great facilities for our growing team of talented developers,” says Martin Buhl Svanum, Chief Operating Officer at IO Interactive.

“Malmö is incredibly attractive for game developers, and it’s exciting to see the city’s potential for becoming a capital for the European video games industry. Wihlborgs is following this trend closely and we’re pleased to offer an established company like IO Interactive premises for current and future needs,” says Ulrika Hallengren, CEO of Wihlborgs.
