The game was officially announced by Nintendo at their E3 2010 conference presentation. It is a reimagining of 1997 video game GoldenEye 007, itself based on the 1995 film GoldenEye. This leaves the fandom and fantastic individuals like Krollywood to create their own fan-made remakes of their favorite games, much to the content of the rest of the gaming community, which already expressed an appetite for the GoldenEye remake in the past. GoldenEye 007 is a first-person shooter video game published by Activision. The trademark filing specified the gaming rights to the GoldenEye but offered very little specific detail about a possible, official remake.

The original game did receive a modern-day retelling under Activision’s banner, which was well-received, but still remained in the shadows of the original game.įrom then on, and through the series of underperforming James Bond video game titles, the franchise’s owner withdrew the IP’s gaming rights altogether, only to rerelease them earlier this year. However, Microsoft was never able to publish the game since the rights to the GoldenEye game were owned by Nintendo, who didn’t want to relinquish one of its best-selling titles. In 2002, Microsoft acquired the original game’s developer, Rare, and its library of titles which were later ported to than popular Xbox Live, including the remastered version of GoldenEye. It’s worth noting that Krollywood’s effort isn’t the first attempt at the GoldenEye remake. Do with what you have, right? Well, Far Cry’s Arcade mode is officially canceled in the upcoming sequel, Far Cry 6. Krollywood, a fan of both Far Cry 5 and GoldenEye video games, explained that he chose Ubisoft’s editor due to its ease-of-use and the sheer number of objects it offers, allowing for a wide variety of levels and styles, which was perfect for recreating GoldenEye. It’s a significant boost in the visual and physical quality of the game, compared to the original Nintendo64 release. The fan-made remake of the game features overall better graphics enabled by Ubisoft’s level editor and the power of modern hardware.
