New information regarding the forthcoming videogame adaptation of Quantum of Solace has surfaced in UK publication, GamesMaster.

According to the magazine, the game will feature locations based on both Casino Royale and Quantum of Solace, although so far, only stages from the former have been shown.

Although the title is predominantly a First Person Shooter (FPS), the publication notes that there will be several Third Person elements spliced in with the regular action, apparently to remind the player they are "being" Bond.


The game utilizes a cover system similar to that of Grand Theft Auto IV, whereby the camera pulls back to an external viewpoint, allowing you to see Bond and his enemies clearly as you are backed against a wall or object. The camera will also switch perspectives when climbing a ladder or walking along a ledge.

Furthermore, a number of “God of War-style” Quick Time Events (QTE’s) will also be included, one of which is based on the infamous chase scene from the opening sequence of Casino Royale.

Bond will also be able to use QTE’s to dispatch foes quietly and efficiently from a third person perspective. Enemies themselves will employ flank tactics in an attempt to get to you, and are able to communicate with each other.

Stay tuned.
