Woah. It was about four years ago that we first saw about 30 minutes of footage of the canceled 2007 remake / remaster of classic shooter. GoldenEye 007, and now the whole thing on YouTube.
The footage is thanks to a YouTuber named Graslu00, who notes that they can not say where they got it from, but ‘patience is the key’, and they are ‘told that it will be released in 2021’ – although it seems to be referring to the files for the game rather than to an actual public release (which now seems very unlikely).
If you did not follow suit, this version of GoldenEye 007 was allegedly made back in 2007 for a special celebration of the 10th anniversary on Xbox Live Arcade, but it seems that rights issue is finally hindering its release.
Following the most recent footage leak in 2016, Xbox boss Phil Spencer commented on a question about the video by saying: “GoldenEye has always been a rights issue, not a code to execute”. ‘
What do you make of the footage? Do you wish it was released? Let us know below.
