New Perfect Dark gameplay trailer looks neither perfect nor dark

I’m as shocked as you are. As part of the Xbox Games Showcase, we’ve finally at the Initiative and Crystal Dynamics’ Perfect Dark. It’s been a while. This one ওis the first tra♒iler to include actual gameplay.

The trailer shows off what I’d expect from a sequel to tಌhe N64 classic. There’s actual stealth and gadgets, and the levels look somewhat non-linear, 🌳maybe. I did not, however, see a large-headed alien or a presidential clone, but there’s still time. We do see the series’ protagonist, Joanna Dark, and mention of Daniel Carrington, though he seems to be the target of the mission.

Actually, a lot of the trailer reminds me of marketing material from around the Xbox 360 release. Parkour, gunfights behind fruit, and first-person tricks. Not that I expected it to look like an N64 game. This just looks a little generic. If it borrows the objective-based gameplay of Goldeneye and the original Perfect Dark, that would be a pretty good hook.

A 🌳release date💛 hasn’t been stated, and neither have its target platforms. Xbox Series X|S and PC would be a good bet.
