I'm guessing if it's an entirely original vision and story, we aren't going to see locations from past films, but that'd be a nice treat too.
Have Io even confirmed what kind of game it is? I would suspect its a third person shooter based on Hitman, but who knows.
I would assume if they have an M briefing scene it would be seen in the traditional Whitehall office, as that is consistent through nearly all of the Bonds (save Brosnan).
Same. I'd rather a game with various 007 achievements you can go back and try to unlock again and again, with improved runs. I want a game with replay ability, which could come from a nice multiplayer, but their strength is in single and that's what I hope they're focused on. Multiple angles to each mission.
I hope so. IO have the talent and ability to deliver something special, and they’re making the right noise about it. If they can nail it, it can be a core series for them alongside Hitman.
I have spent the evening playing 007 Legends. Hell, after that mess, I will settle for something competent 😅
Sorry vr did nothing for me in the 90’s and it still does nothing for me…
Looking forward to the game and also as controversial as it is don’t need multiplayer
Even the PSVR2? That said, I do know that VR is not for everybody and there are people who it does not resonate with. Just is what it is. For me, the experience of actually being inside the world of the game is just mind blowing and I've been playing in VR for the last four years and I can never get enough. Flat gaming separates me way too much from the visceral experience that VR provides. I look forward to walking around in Blofeld's volcano lair some day.
I think the game will be Bond in his own world separate from everything before, with IO's own trademark style and elements. There won't be a connection to the movies, short of similar iconography and maybe some cheeky references, but we won't see levels that recreate the films or anything like that. And I personally have no issue with it. I trust IO to make a new Bond for a new era and in a new form, in the first non movie tie-in game we've had in eons of time. So exciting, given how fresh and interesting that will feel.
I still wish a Company had the balls to take the post Fleming novels and turn them into games because come on Colonel sun has whole chapters that feel like they could be cool levels… just me really
Sigh
But yeah looking forward to this game hope it comes before the end of the world lol

Fingers crossed they're already in the early stages of working on more Hitman too.
The big and impatient fan in me hopes they're at least compiling some ideas for the future, as they announced a couple years back there would be more to come, but you're right, I'm sure nearly all of their resources are being sunk into Project 007, which is equally exciting.
I imagine they will have a James Bond for the single player story, but if there is a multiplayer component, it would be cool to design your own 00 agent.
I wonder what he means by “The First Bond”
The Literary Bond.
