James Bond Origin Story Game Project 007 Officially Coming to Nintendo Switch 2

GoldenEye hive, it’s time to rise up — because IO Interactive is officially bringing its upcoming James Bond game to the Nintendo Switch 2.
According to IO Interactive’s website, Project 007 will focus on an entirely new story in the Bond universe.
“Players will step into the shoes of the world’s favorite Secret Agent to earn their 00 status in the very first James Bond origin story,” the developer said about what to expect for the game’s story.
Head of IO Hakan Abrak opened up to IGN about building a brand new origin story for the beloved spy back in October. “What’s exciting about that project is that we actually got to do an original story. So it’s not a gamification of a movie,” he told IGN.
“It’s completely beginning and becoming a story, hopefully for a big trilogy out there in the future. And equally important and exciting, it’s a new Bond. It’s a Bond we built from the ground up for gamers. It’s extremely exciting with all the tradition and all the history there is there together to work on this together with the family of creating a young Bond for gamers; a Bond that the gamers can call their own and grow with.”
As for a release date, though, the jury is still out on that one. You can catch up on everything announced at the Nintendo Direct today right here.
