Goldfinger 64

What it is

Goldfinger 64 rebuilds GoldenEye 007 around the 1964 Bond film Goldfinger. It was a long team effort by members of the GoldenEye hacking scene, among them SubDrag, Trevor, Sogun, Zoinkity, Wreck, Dragonsbrethren, MRKane and project lead Monkeyface, and came out in September 2017.

What's new

• Twenty new solo levels following the film, from a Miami hotel and an Alpine car chase to the Fort Knox gold vault, plus bonus stages drawn from other Bond films
• New weapons such as a Thompson submachine gun, an AR-7 sniper rifle and a rocket launcher
• Eleven multiplayer maps and a larger character roster
• A completely new soundtrack
• It uses the Expansion Pak for bigger maps and more textures than the original game could load

Playing it

Apply the patch to your own US copy of GoldenEye 007, following the instructions on its N64 Vault page. Some levels take around half a minute to load, and on emulators the save type has to be set by hand; the page lists the settings.
