@Atariboy The remaster we are talking about is the Xbox 360 version that is 90% complete, these versions are not considered a remaster even though some people are saying they are.
Switch is the N64 ROM with the software doing online via NSO still split screen.
Xbox is the N64 version with widescreen, dual stick controls and 4K with achievements and split screen multiplayer only.
The Xbox 360 version is not being used at all here...
@Knightrider1 I'm hoping the Xbox 360 Remaster releases later as they are not calling these versions a remaster at all, and just GoldenEye 007 on both releases even though the Xbox version has some minor improvements.
I assume they could release the remaster as a full priced boxed game as this is technically only entering subscription services and digital via the purchase of Rare Replay on Xbox.
Possibly as a deal we see Rare Replay on Switch and GoldenEye Remaster on both Switch and Xbox with online and the extra multiplayer levels.

@Serpenterror If you purchase Rare Replay on Xbox you get 007
Re: Nightdive Studios Was Apparently "Close" To Reviving GoldenEye 007
@Atariboy I'm so upset it's not this version as I've been playing it on my RGH 360 with the community updates and it's incredible!
I know Nintendo originally didn't want Xbox to have a superior version...
But both consoles and PC could have the 360 version.
Hopefully it comes later as a full priced release!

@nocdaes No idea why Japan is a later date... they did show a different game for Japan as well.
But it seems West is 2022 and Japan is 2023

@AG_Awesome Each to their own I guess, but the switch sticks are way too small and sensitive
Re: Nightdive Studios Was Apparently "Close" To Reviving GoldenEye 007
@AG_Awesome it will be horrible sorry to say, FPS games don't work well on switch unless you use a pro controller.
I use my Xbox Elite and they are still not great.

@Znake Can buy Rare Replay to get the Xbox version.

@KevinP No remaster is announced Xbox is getting a updated 1997 version, 4K, Controls, widescreen and achievements.
But its still the N64 visuals.
