According to a developer interview, Perfect Dark will employ “eco sci-fi” where a global ecological disaster led to corporations developing a new technology to deal with it. It seems like a hopeful world on the surface, but dig deeper, and there are some dark secrets beneath.

The game will be for Xbox Series X | S as the studio noted that it is “humbled and honored to take Perfect Dark into the next generation.” It can also be presumed to release on PC as well. It will likely be available day and date on Xbox Game Pass as usual since it is a first-party Microsoft title.
