Joss Stone looking a bit Bond girl
By Mark Johnson
Activision has confirmed at a press event this morning that Blood Stone, details of which were leaked (or gushed) yesterday, is a reality.
The game is in development at Bizarre Creations for PS3, 360 and PC and will include both action and driving sections. A DS version is being developed by n-Space.
A press release on a Dave Stewart fan site (since pulled down be cached here - thanks NeoGAF) tells us, "Players can engage in cover-based firefights, lethal hand-to-hand combat and speed their way through explosive adrenaline-fueled driving sequences as they embark on a global chase leading to action on land and sea through Athens, Istanbul, Monaco and Bangkok.
"Gamers can also feel what it is like to be a 00 agent, as they take the battle online in several robust 16-person multi-player modes that require skill, teamwork and strategy as players compete in matches that will have spies battling mercenaries."
The game will include the voices of Daniel Craig and Judi Dench as Bond and M, along with a turn from Joss Stone. Stone has also crafted an original track for the game, alongside the Eurythmic's Dave Stewart, as was leaked yesterday. We hope Stone's involvement isn't because her name matches the title or, even worse, it's been named after her.
Games composer Richard Jacques is also working on the soundtrack.
