GoldenEye 25 - Frequently asked questions
- There is already an existing GoldenEye game called GoldenEye: Source. So why GoldenEye 25?
Our project is by no means a competition to GoldenEye: Source. We both are former or still active developers on the latter project and we're highly fond of it.
GoldenEye: Source has one major difference though: It is a multiplayer game only whilst GoldenEye 25 is meant to recreate the single player missions.
It goes without saying that we're also developing "25" on the Unreal Engine and not Source Engine. - What will it cost?
Once finished GoldenEye 25 will be entirely free to play. - On what platforms will it be released?
Our main goal is to release on PC. Linux and Mac releases are possible. Any console release is highly unlikely. - Do you appreciate our feedback?
Absolutely! We're are thankful that you take time to monitor our outlets and give your feedback on what we do.
Though do keep in mind that most of what you see is unfinished and subject to change. - Why is the release date so far away?
As of now we are two people working on this game. Every asset is made from scratch. This takes time. We want to deliver a solid, well-balanced game. Last but not least 2022 will mark the original
GoldenEye's 25th birthday. - Aren't you afraid of a C&D?
To be very clear: We are very well aware of a potential C&D as many of you pointed out. But GoldenEye: Source has existed for many years without being shut down. So we do hope we won't be shut down either. We're just going to keep working on the game and not be deterred by the legal confusion surrounding the GoldenEye IP. - Why do you release pictures, movies and other forms of documentation already?
We always try to think of our community first. Since it was not common practice back in the 90's, we never got major insights into the development of the original GoldenEye 64. The situation is different now. We can take advantage of social media and YouTube. We want to let you be part of the development and we'll build up a well documented archive in the process.
To sum it up: We want to give you what we, ourselves, would like to see, if we were following this game's development. - Can we support this game financially or is there any sort of crowdfunding?
We follow the same philosophy as GoldenEye: Source. To minimize the risk of any legal interference we do not accept any sort of financial support.
Although we highly appreciate the gesture and the love.

This is a bit of a stretch, but do you think that it's possible to add a cheat that causes all the enemies to freak out like in the original when you tilt the cartridge? This is what I'm talking about Youtube.com
This is something i really want to be finished
We're doing our best and we won't give up!
Sorry for the lapse in attendance for the page, but I saw some of the videos recently posted on social media and loved the sound design. I enjoy the fact that you guys are taking meticulous care of the soundtrack for the game, and REALLY like the Eric Serra-inspired score (I absolutely loved his work in Nikita as well as the film GE). I was always disappointed with sound design in recent games where the machine guns and pistols sounded very weak and without a strong cinematic presence, but you guys are absolutely crushing them with Goldeneye 25! Keep up the great work!
Btw Yannick, I absolutely love that you have a Juno synth in the background- I’m super nerdy about that kind of stuff!
Oh thank you so much! How kind of you to say that. I'm glad the things we pay extra attention to get noticed :D
Cool you've noticed the Juno. In that case it may be cool for you to know, that it was used on a couple of tracks in GoldenEye 25.
Best,
Yannick
Thank you! Yannick is doing an outstanding job and he will appreciate this comment a lot!
Will the original music be here? The new ones seem to be a drawback so far in my opinion. A option to change it to the original would be neat. :)
Fascinating thing to say when you haven't even heard 1/10 of the score and not seen it in action properly. But have your way...
Sorry, we legally cannot include the original music in the game.
I've heard the music. I did not mean to bring a bad vibe to my comment.
Not the original as in ripping the sounds straight from the game, but a remixed set.
Something like this remake would work great, assuming the creator is onboard with supporting the project. Just listen to that rendition of the missile silo!
But many actions that brings the experience closer to an ideal remake incurs legal risk, even if nothing in that soundtrack remake samples from the original. I think it's potentially worth it (at least as a mod), given that significant risk has already been taken with the project's name, and given that the soundtrack is a remake.
If not, then mod support at the very least could help with that, if there's time in the project to integrate a mod plugin such as mod.io.
