Turned him into Drake smh

[-Foxtrot]

I thought he looked similar to Ethan Hunt

Having jet black hair would have probably went a long way

[repsahj]

I thought he looks like Max Payne. XD

[Iceball2000]

I thought the same thing “ ohh a young Tom Cruse” (Ethan Hunt).

[Cacabunga]

I remember the 007 games on ps2 were all decent. Nightfire i believe it was called.
This one looks interesting and could be on my radar

[The_Hooligan]

I thought he looked like the actor Max Beesley.

[Cellblock11]

Doesn't look anything like Drake. Kinda looks like a younger Tom Cruise.

[slate91]

I meant this looks like uncharted. Which kudos to Uncharted for inspiring so much in today's games.

007: Unbonded

[CrimsonWing69]

Problem I have with this is the art direction looks weird to me. Some of the animations look cartoonishly exaggerated, like that weird wind up and speed up look… and I’m not digging the Bond look. That all being said, knowing IOI, it’ll be a fun time, I just hope the art direction isn’t super distracting.

[RaidenBlack]

To me it looks unique.
Given Hitman III, and how good it looks and still was a cross gen game, they could've went for the more photo realistic look easily since this 007 game is current gen only. But it could've looked generic among the recent swarm of UE5 based games with pre built photo scanned assets.
This just have a deliberate unique touch that only dedicated veteran team can offer with experienced artists/designers. And couple that with hallmark IOI gameplay, it'll be even more unique. Just give it a chance. Don't write it off yet (reserve that for the countless UE5 based games being churned out). Also glacier engine will offer better perf than UE5.

[CrimsonWing69]

Oh I ain’t denying it’s not “unique,” it’s a matter of preference and it’s off-putting to me visually.

I have no doubt it’ll be great to play. But for me, personally, I don’t like the look and slightly exaggerated animations. It’s just more cartoony looking than what I want from a Bond game.

[Ninjamonkey82]

Should have waited for the new movie and used the new actor whoever that turns out to be. Not a fan off the charector model on show

[Si-Fly]

Should’ve used Flemming’s Bond and set the game in the 60’s.

[-Foxtrot]

Least they have the scar but yeah I agree

They could have done an accurate Bond from Flemings description / sketch of him.

[RaidenBlack]

There's a big chance the new Bond under the new leadership be Cavill and with the new MI series being so Bond-esque yet at the same time so futuristic, the new Bond story/theme might target classics era like 60s/70s to appear unique.

[Si-Fly]

I’d love to see that but I’d say that’s highly unlikely.

[TheGamersDojo]

Looks like a healthy mix of Hitman and Uncharted.

It has my interest.

[Extermin8or3_]

Both of which I'd argue are in many ways inspired by the bond films/games of the past. Especially some aspects of uncharted which basically draws from any action film/game it can.

[TheGamersDojo]

Definitely, and it looks all the better for it.

[gold_drake]

looked good but the look of the game overall had abit of an odd look to it.

[Software_Lover]

So “Splinter Drake”?

[Jingsing]

Finally getting a good James Bond Jr. game after than SNES abomination. :D The haircut makes him look like a 90's American boy band member.

[dveio]

I'm excited!

I have nothing against probably starting a new 007 series with a younger Bond. The same they did with 47.

What I like the most is that IOI now have two stealth action espionage franchises at their studio, that most certainly will benefit from eachother in terms of gameplay improvments and new ideas.

Really looking forward to 007, and besides I am a big fan of their Glacier Engine.

[Extermin8or3_]

I'd say bond looks to be more action stealth espionage where as hitman is stealth action

[joab777]

But is there PvP?

[Flewid638]

Third person, AAA and cinematic is my favorite combo so this game looks promising.
