007 Legends, a new game from Eurocom which promises to tie together six Bond movies, will be released this autumn for Xbox 360 and PS3, Activision has announced.

007 Legends features an original, overarching storyline tying together six Bond movies, concluding with this year’s 23rd instalment, Skyfall.

Players will be equipped with state-of-the-art spy gadgets, an arsenal of weapons, including Bond’s signature Walther PPK, and sleek vehicles as they jet off to exotic locations around the world to take down notorious villains and mingle with gorgeous Bond girls.

“To honour 50 years of the world’s top secret agent, 007 Legends offers a collection of his most famed moments in the smartest and most treacherous Bond game yet,” said David Oxford, executive vice president at Activision Publishing, Inc. “Creating a video game storyline that ties together six popular, yet very different, Bond movie narratives can be challenging, but together with EON Productions, our developer Eurocom, has pulled it off to create an homage that we think will be a unique and highly entertaining Bond video game.”

Complimenting the main story is the return of single-player Mi6 Ops Mission, first seen in GoldenEye 007: Reloaded, and challenges players to complete extra missions competing for the highest score on the leaderboard. Players will be able to complete the missions as Bond or some of his most famous foes.

Then comes multiplayer, offering four-player split-screen and online play across a series of new maps derived from Bond’s 50-year legacy.

Besides Skyfall, Activision hasn’t revealed which other five films will be featured in Legends. Which films would you like to see appear in the game?
