Perfect Dark New Gameplay Trailer

During the Xbox Games Showcase, the first gameplay trailer was shown for Perfect Dark. Xbox first part studio The Initiative is co-developing Perfect Dark with Crystal Dynamics, where it was first shown at The Game Awards in 2020.

Like the older titles, the game is a first-person shooter, where players will play as protagonist Joanna Dark. The last Perfect Dark game released in 2010 as an Xbox 360 exclusive, which was a remaster of the original N64 game.

From an Xbox Wire post:

“Perfect Dark’s near-future world has been impacted by what’s known as “The Cascade,” in which the planet has suffered from a series of environmental disasters, rendering entire regions inhospitable to human life. In the wake of the disaster, a hypercorporation known as Core Mantis steps in to create a solution known as The GEN Network, and deploys it in Cairo – restoring ecological balance and creating a freshly walled city, insulated from the hostile environment outside to become a center for technological innovation.”

There’s no release date yet, but it’s good to finally see some gameplay, and it does look promising. The game will be available day one on Xbox Game Pass when it does release.
