Phil Spencer himself acknowledged a few years ago that they have tried to bring back the mythical GoldenEye of Rare from Nintendo 64 many times. Also that in all of them they have ended up abandoning the idea because of how difficult it is to deal with the license and all the parties involved in the process.
The closest time you have come to seeing a remake of GoldenEye 007 dates back to 2007, when Rare herself was in charge of revitalizing the game with the intention of reaching Xbox Live Arcade . Much has been said about that project, but never much information about it has been released.
Now that changes with the arrival of the video that you have below. Footage of the canceled remake for Xbox 360 that includes two hours of content that can be seen, in 4K and 60 fps , both the full campaign and the multiplayer.
The creator of the video assures that we will soon know more about this lost build and that it is very likely that it will end up reaching the public during this year, not necessarily by the hands of Rare or Microsoft , but via those who have managed to decrypt the game files .
We’ll see what both the creators and the licensees have to say about all this, but at first it seems that one of the best kept secrets of recent generations will end up seeing the light of the sun. I wish it had been 14 years ago in other conditions.
Then we leave you with the trailer for GoldenEye 007: Reloaded, the reimagining of Brosnan’s film that we did live with Activision in 2010.
