Activision Announce 007: Bloodstone

Activision have announced that a new game based on the James Bond license is in the works at Bizarre Creations…starring Joss Stone.

That’s right, the Devon-born songstress will be lending her voice to a new Bond-girl and providing an exclusive song for the game’s soundtrack. Alongside her will be Daniel Craig, Judy Dench and other faces fans of the movies will be familiar with.

There’s been rumblings that the Blur developer was working on a new Bond game and now we know that was the case. The fact it’s not a racing title is certainly a surprise. Bloodstone will be a third-person action adventure game, something that’s pretty much a world away from what the developer is used to doing.

Players can expect “an explosive third-person action adventure where they will unravel an international conspiracy across exotic locales” as well as “full-throttle, behind-the-wheel action on land and sea while using the most high tech gadgetry”. Activision hope to capture the feel of the Bond movies, which is no easy task, especially with no movie to base it on.
