We’ve waited and waited and then we waited again. We were told “next week” then “next month” then “end of January.” And at last, the rumour was right: GoldenEye 007 is heading to Nintendo Switch Online on Friday, January 27th, 2023 – in two days time!
Announced earlier today, the new trailer is accompanied with the words:
GoldenEye 007 is back! Originally released for the Nintendo 64 system, the legendary game is coming to the Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack members on 1/27.
Meanwhile the Nintendo of America Twitter account went with:
However, there is not yet news of a release of GoldenEye 007 on Xbox, despite the release news back in September. It is news that a lot of people have been interested in. Our feature on what has happened to GoldenEye 007 game since that announcement has proved to be one of our most popular articles.
But now is the time to relax, take off your rolex, and enjoy that vodka martini as you cradle the keys of your Aston Martin DB7. GoldenEye 007 will be ready to play on your Nintendo Switch on Friday. And if you haven’t upgraded to the Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack, now is a good time.
Nintendo just made your weekend.
