While it has yet to be confirmed if a GoldenEye title is in development for Wii, information and images obtained from a survey yesterday about a 007 remake indicated that Activision will be making an announcement in the near future. Last October, initial rumors surfaced after an ex-Eurocom staffer listed the game on his CV. A few additional details were released today, but it still isn’t clear if it is a remake or a completely original project.

According to Eurogamer, Activision will be making an announcement about the game at E3 and will release the remake this November. A DS version is allegedly in the works as well, though is said to be developed by n-Space.

If the recent survey is to be believed, players will take on the role of the new James Bond, Daniel Craig, in the remake that is being “developed from the ground up for the Wii.” An enhanced 4-player split-screen will be included, although gamers will be able to participate in 8-player online matches as well.
