Perfect Dark

Perfect Dark

Another of Rare’s N64 classics, Perfect Dark put players in control of Joanna Dark, a super spy under the employ of the Carrington Institute. The game featured many of the most beloved aspects of Rare’s previous hit, Goldeneye 007, but without the pesky license preventing it from becoming a running series.

But despite all of that, the series has stagnated like the rest of Rare’s catalogue. A hit-or-miss prequel and a substandard remaster are all there’s been since the original.

Recently, there has been a stir among Perfect Dark fans, though. An official Twitter profile for Perfect Dark was recently discovered, alongside a similarly set up Fable account. With a new Fable having been recently announced, things are starting to look good for Joanna Dark’s return.
