This is the first I've seen of this game, but... this is definitely not what I expected from a game titled 'Perfect Dark'. Maybe I just don't remember the N64 game well enough, but this seems pretty far-removed, from a plot perspective.
It looks like theyre not only using elements from the N64 original, but elements from Perfect Dark Zero as well, which wasn't the worst game ever but it wasn't a masterpiece.
Perfect Dark was always like the woman-led version of James Bond with a high science fiction flavoring. It doesn't seem to stray too far IMO.
I got more of a Mirrors Edge vibe than Perfect Dark watching that trailer.
Only from the parkour though. Literally nothing else felt like ME.
