In an official blog post on Xbox Wire, here's what the developers urged patience for those eager to hear about the game. The Initiative's Perfect Dark reboot does not yet have an official release date, which means we're likely a year or two away from stepping back into the shoes of Joanna Dark. Here's everything we learned about Perfect Dark at The Game Awards. The original Perfect Dark was developed by Rare for Nintendo 64 back in 2000, intended to follow-up on the massive success of GoldenEye 007. In new reveal video, the developers showed off the reboot of the futuristic secret-agent adventure game Perfect Dark. At The Game Awards on December 10, Microsoft finally revealed what the hush-hush project The Initiative has been working on since the mysterious Santa Monica studio was founded two years ago. Back at E3 2018, Phil Spencer (Head of Xbox) dropped a really interesting quote hinting that Gallagher might have interest in revisiting one of Xbox’s classic IP (Perfect Dark) due to his experience working on The Tomb Raider Reboot Trilogy.The secret's out. If any man, and any team are particularly equipped to resurrect Perfect Dark for the modern era, then it’s Darrell and the Initiative. Speaking of Tomb Raider, guess who is the studio head of Xbox’s The Initiative studio It’s Darrell Gallagher, a veteran on the team behind the Trilogy Reboot at Crystal Dynamics. Perfect Dark could be made into something truly special, with this level of work and care.

That trilogy brought Lara into the twenty-first century culturally, reimagining her look, attitudes, sensibilities, and mannerisms, while also changing the genre type into something way bigger than the previous. As a revered gaming icon and fierce heroine, Joanna Dark would absolutely benefit from the same “glow up” that Lara Croft received in the Tomb Raider Reboot Trilogy. Perfect Dark and its protagonist, the lethal spy, Joanna Dark, would be an excellent fit alongside other reimagined franchises. Where once it may have been difficult to imagine a fit for the IP in the gaming market, now it is the perfect time for it to return. The gaming industry has changed astronomically in those fifteen years. It’s been fifteen years since the last Perfect Dark game (Perfect Dark: Zero) was released (2005). ![]()
