Attention all GoldenEye enthusiasts, it's time to rally — IO Interactive has officially announced that their upcoming James Bond game, Project 007, is coming to the Nintendo Switch 2. According to IO Interactive's website, this eagerly anticipated title will delve into a completely new narrative within the Bond universe, offering fans a fresh take on the iconic spy.

"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," IO Interactive stated, setting the stage for what promises to be an engaging journey through Bond's early career.

In an interview with IGN back in October, IO Interactive's Head, Hakan Abrak, shared his enthusiasm about crafting a new origin story for the beloved spy.

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."
