It’s been four years since we first found out that a new Perfect Dark game was on the way, and now Microsoft has revealed the first gameplay during the Xbox Games Showcase today.
The new Perfect Dark is a reboot of the original game, being developed by The Initiative and Crystal Dynamics. In the gameplay trailer we got a first look at Joanna Dark in a near-future Cairo setting. “Team Perfect Dark has pulled inspiration from elements of the first two games, but crafted an entirely new story and universe around them for this reboot,” says Xbox wire editor in chief Joe Skrebels.
Perfect Dark is the usual first-person secret agent shooter, and it will be a single-player experience with a set amount of missions. There will be choices in how you complete the missions, and there are gadgets available in the game as you’d expect. In the trailer there’s a tease of a gadget that analyzes NPC voices and creates deepfake ones to let you create distractions or bypass security systems.
Microsoft hasn’t provided a release date or window for Perfect Dark yet.
