Soon, we'll be able to play the full thing.

The short version

  • After several delays - it was meant to launch in 2022 at one point - and a worrying amount of silence from solo developer Replicant D6 at times, it's been confirmed the game will release 11th August on PC via Steam.
  • Regardless, the description on Steam is promising local co-op and player-versus-player action on the same machine on top of the usual online options.
  • Even more impressive is the inclusion of cheats and custom modes built into the experience at launch, with no need for paid DLC to enjoy Agent 64 in different ways.

What happened

"Relive the glory days of gaming and create custom lobbies with 70+ nostalgic cheats and gritty modifiers like Big Heads, Melee Disarms, slow bullet speeds, and random weapon changes in Paradox Mode," the press release states. Looking for a more modern spy adventure that's classy all the same?
