If you are over thirty, you probably knew the classic video rental stores and the great four-player battles in the Nintendo 64's GoldenEye 007. The game was a major classic of the late 1990s, responsible for important innovations within the FPS genre and contradicting those who believed these games would succeed only on computers at the time.

Ben Colclough, a great fan of the original game, began producing an ambitious remake in Unreal Engine 4 at the beginning of this year. Everything in the project started from scratch, focusing on developing all stages and missions with updated graphics, online multiplayer, and gameplay updates in certain situations.

Ben was very enthusiastic when he started using Unreal Engine 4, because he soon realized that the enemies' artificial intelligence could also be updated, along with better lighting and sound quality.

Apparently, other fans are also collaborating on the project and offering suggestions, such as the option to voluntarily use the classic gameplay, pleasing the most nostalgic players.

The remake will be called GoldenEye 25, since the developers believe the game will be ready in 2022, the 25th anniversary of the original title's release for Nintendo 64.
