Build A Rocket Boy delays Hitman crossover for MindsEye as updates slow after layoffs

Build A Rocket Boy issued a statement regarding MindsEye updates after the game received the worst 2025 Metacritic reviews. The studio postponed the planned Hitman crossover mission from July to an unspecified date. IO Interactive published MindsEye and arranged the Agent 47 collaboration as part of their partnership agreement. Future updates will arrive less frequently due to recent staff reductions.

MindsEye encountered numerous difficulties before and after its launch last month. Early previews generated negative feedback while technical problems plagued leaked copies. Company executives departed before release as leadership blamed internal and external saboteurs for the product's failure. PlayStation offered customer refunds because of the game's poor technical condition.

Build A Rocket Boy continues releasing patches to address ongoing issues. The developer faces uncertainty about long-term survival unlike CD Projekt Red's successful Cyberpunk 2077 recovery. Leslie Benzie founded the studio using Rockstar reputation and limited seed funding that cannot sustain prolonged development cycles indefinitely.
