Activision has officially announced James Bond 007: Blood Stone, an original Bond experience from screenwriter Bruce Feirstein. In development for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC, Blood Stone promises to be an explosive third-person action adventure that will unravel an international conspiracy across exotic locales.
”James Bond 007: Blood Stone captures the cinematic intensity of a Bond film by immersing players in an intriguing conspiracy that will require them to think and act like James Bond,” said David Pokress, Head of Marketing for Licensed Properties, Activision Publishing. ”In addition, the game will feature a diverse array of multi-player modes and debut strategic objective-based gameplay that will allow Xbox 360, PS3 and PC players to battle as teams of spies and mercenaries through authentic Bond locales.”
Joss Stone is set to debut as the newest Bond girl in Blood Stone, and will also be writing music for the game. Daniel Craig and Judy Dench will be offering their voice talent to the game too.
Players will be able to go behind-the-wheel across land and sea, whilst using the latest high tech gadgetry to assist them in cover-based firefights and lethal hand-to-hand combat as they travel through Athens, Istanbul, Monaco and Bangkok.
Multiplayer features 16-players in modes that have spies battling mercenaries. It should be out at the end of this year and is being developed by Bizarre Creations.
