There’s one James Bond game coming out this year that’s got 007 fans cocking their golden guns in anticipation. The game is currently in active development at IO Interactive’s offices in Copenhagen, Denmark, and Malmö, Sweden, on “modern systems and platforms” - presumably meaning current-generation consoles PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X, as well as Windows PC. It sounds like it'll be local co-op only, though the statement on the Xbox Wire notes: 'The classic campaign mode, transformative difficulty levels and havoc-inducing cheats will all make their return – as will the iconic split-screen local multiplayer mode, allowing up to four players to take to the couch in a battle of wits and skill.' We've added the bold for emphasis.The teaser trailer is only a few seconds long, but IO gave a few more details on the website for Project 007, which the studio noted is a working title. Also, if you own a digital copy of Rare Replay, you will be able to download and enjoy the game free of charge. GoldenEye 007 will be made available on Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S as part of Xbox Game Pass. Per Craig Duncan of Rare: 'The original experience has been updated with improved control options (including dual analogue stick support), native 16:9 resolution up to 4K Ultra HD (where supported), a consistent refresh rate and a full complement of achievements to unlock.' This version – on Xbox, of course – includes achievements, 4K resolution and a smoother framerate and, per the developer, will even let you play in split-screen local multiplayer. It seems from the wording of the Rare tweets that Xbox users will get a version of the game that has been 'faithfully recreated for Xbox consoles'. There's no release date listed just yet, but a tweet from developer Rare confirms that the game will be 'coming soon'.

The title is a remaster of the cult classic Nintendo 64 title first hit consoles way back in 1997.

During today's Nintendo Direct, the Japanese company announced today that Rare is releasing GoldenEye 007 HD on Nintendo Switch and Xbox.
