A leaked set of achievements seem to indicate that classic console FPSĀ Goldeneye 007Ā could be coming to the Xbox ecosystem. As logged on TrueAchievements, a full set of rewards for a version ofĀ Goldeneye 007Ā has appeared online.

The nabbed list of achievements has 55 tasks to complete for 1,000 gamerscore. These include obvious ones, like completing maps like Dam and Facility on any difficulty. But there are others with more specific requirements, like some for unlocking Paintball Mode and the Golden Gun, or scoring 100 kills in multiplayer matches. My favorite is definitely the achievement for playing Slappers Only on Complex.

Back in 1997 when it first launched, Goldeneye 007Ā was the hallmark of dorm room splitscreen parties on the Nintendo 64. Its legacy has remained over the years too, even as more re-releases and updated versions have arrived. That includes a Wii version ofĀ Goldeneye 007Ā andĀ Goldeneye 007: Reloaded.

Still, a lot of fans want the original back in its original form.Ā The classicĀ Goldeneye 007Ā was noticeably absent from theĀ Rare ReplayĀ collection, though. And attempts have been made in the past by Rare and Microsoft, though they reportedly ran into complications.

The achievements leaking certainly seem like a surefire smoking Golden Gun for a modernĀ GoldeneyeĀ port. And honestly, the time does seem right; my nostalgia for an older era of console shooters has been in overdrive with the launch ofĀ Halo Infinite. I was also prone to the occasional splitscreen Slappers Only match myself, and I’m interested to see whatĀ GoldeneyeĀ is like, decades of console FPS development later.

We’ll see in the coming weeks and months of the new year, I imagine, how this all pans out. But with the blue-checkmark James Bond Twitter account hinting at special things to come in celebration of Bond’s 60th,Ā Goldeneye 007Ā sure seems primed to re-emerge.
