One of the most iconic FPS games in video game history is coming to Xbox & Nintendo Switch soon: GoldenEye 007. The game will be free to play for both Nintendo Switch Online Expansion Pack subscribers and Game Pass subscribers.
While we wait for the next James Bond game, the ominously-named "Project 007", we've just heard about a new remake to enjoy. This is effectively a port of the 1997 classic GoldenEye, without any enhancements made to the gameplay or graphics. But that's not necessarily a bad thing, we'll be playing it for the nostalgic appeal, after all.
GoldenEye Coming To Xbox Game Pass & Nintendo Switch Online Soon
As recently announced by Nintendo America, GoldenEye will be coming to Xbox Game Pass and Nintendo Switch Online on Friday, January 27. And, even more excitingly, it will be made freely available to Game Pass and Nintendo Switch Online Expansion Pack subscribers:
