James Bond 007: Blood Stone Leaks

UK, July 16, 2010

 Bond may be faltering on a return to the big screen but he's set to make an appearance in one blockbuster next year as leaks have revealed James Bond 007: Blood Stone, a new action game, is coming to Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC courtesy of Bizarre Creations.

A mix of third-person gunplay, hand-to-hand combat and the driving action we usually associate with Project Gotham and Blur developers Bizarre, Blood Stone will employ key members behind the long-running series.

Daniel Craig takes the lead – bringing with him the gruff physicality introduced in Casino Royale – and he's joined by Judi Dench and Devon's own Joss Stone. Stone will also be providing the soundtrack, with an original song penned by her and the Eurythmics Dave Stewart called 'I'll Take it All'.

Multiplayer will also feature, with various modes supporting up to 16 players and pitching spies against mercenaries.

The leaks come courtesy of a post on a Dave Stewart fan site, which has since been pulled but was spotted by the ever vigilant Neo Gaf.

Meanwhile, work on the latest Bond film – which was to be directed by Sam Mendes – has been indefinitely suspended as a by-product of studio MGM's financial woes. But Bond's alive and well in the game world, with a reimagining of GoldenEye also coming to the Wii later this year.

Activision has declined to comment on the leak.
