Source: Xbox Game Studios (screenshot) Perfect Dark is a first-person, blockbuster spy thriller being developed as the first project by The Initiative, a relatively new part of Xbox Game Studios that was first founded in 2018 with Darrell Gallagher, formerly head of Crystal Dynamics, as studio head. There's a small army of industry veterans from Crystal Dynamics, Naughty Dog, Sony Santa Monica, and many other places who have been hired to work on this new project. The original Perfect Dark was developed by Rare and released in 2000 for the Nintendo 64 as a spiritual successor to GoldenEye 007, which was also developed by Rare. Perfect Dark Zero was also developed by Rare and released in 2005 for the Xbox 360. A Perfect Dark remaster was released in 2010 for the Xbox 360.
