In December 2020, Microsoft announced a new Perfect Dark game. And today, The Initiative announced that it will be working with Crystal Dynamics in order to develop it.
Perfect Dark will be a first-person spy thriller. The game will release on Xbox Series X|S and PC (from what we know so far). However, there is no ETA on when it will come out.
Unfortunately, Microsoft has not revealed any additional details about this game. Thus, I’ve decided to re-share its announcement trailer. After all, there is nothing more to report on this game. And yes, you should not be expecting to be playing it anytime soon.
Stay tuned for more!

So does this mean The Initiative could not cope with the project so they needed to hand it over to a third party?
The Initiative studio was created by former boss of Crystal Dynamics. He left studio in 2016 after Rise of Tomb Raider. Now he can work with old team once more
Crystal dynamic? the legendary developers behind that awesome game called marvel’s avenges? wow, what could go wrong?
The Initiative boss was responsible for six Tomb Raiders games from 2006 Legends up to 2015 Rise of Tomb Raider. He quit Crystal Dynamics in 2016 when Square Enix make deal with Marvel and give Tomb Raider to different studio. He never work on Avengers or Shadow of Tomb Raider
I’m not holding my breath for it. Xbox is turbo woke so the likelihood of them blackfacing the sexy red head/brunette Joanna Dark into a mannish angry black woman is high.
If that Xbox 360 remaster of the original N64 game could be ported to PC then I’d be happy as hell. That’s all that I’d want from this franchise.

At least we already have the freedom to play the Xbox 360 version on PC via Xenia.
I’ll have a look into it some time. My main desire for a proper PC port though would be for keyboard + mouse controls. When I played the remake on 360 back in the day the aiming accuracy and movement speed on dual analogue control stick was still quite bad, I found.
Look online for the “1964” Project64 build with included “mouse injector”. It provides really well done keyboard/mouse controls for Goldeneye and Perfect Dark.
Except those of the N64 originals. I would like a solution to play the Xbox 360 remake with mouse + keyboard.
We need females who look like that in games today
DOA
This sh*t will be some woke linear cinematic sh*tpiece trying to ape Sony.
Everything woke turns to sh*te.
another female protagonist? why are all games coming out like that??? literally!
Except this series existed since the 90’s and the female is supposed to be hot
the only character you’ll have in the new game is more like this…https://youtu.be/go3-D8Q87RM?t=4083
welcome to the new reality…
Zero guarantees that the reboot’s protagonist will remain hot.
Yeah sadly I’m aware of that
did you ever played the rebooted terrible *Prey*? there are characters scarier than in game monsters…
Prey (2017) is one of the best games I’ve ever played
good god… you sure? because i had nothing but headaches .
This will be full force woke game…
Expect her to not be sexy at all
And yet people will still be like MICROSOFT IS BACK, DAY BOUGHT STUDIOS
Wokeness incoming!!!
The Initiative is collabing with Crystal Dynamics maybe to ensure a great character story, because of how they remade Tomb Raider and created a grounded and empowering Lara Croft. I think Microsoft wanted to add a new game icon for their platform alongside Master Chief.
