The origin story is fundamentally about Bond discovering and becoming who he will be.
How it plays
Stealth is listed as a core genre alongside action, reflecting classic Bond infiltration gameplay. As a shooter, gunplay is a fundamental combat pillar of the espionage action-adventure experience. Stealth gameplay relies on reading enemy awareness states and patrol patterns.
