It’s been a while since we’ve heard anything about IO’s 007 project, but in the meantime, it looks as if a LEGO version of everyone’s favourite British spy was in production at some point.
The video, which @LEGOGameMuseum has posted to X (formerly known as Twitter), shows scenes from a wide variety of James Bond films rendered in the classic LEGO style.
While the game is no longer in production, people close to the project have confirmed that the video is real and began materialising towards the end of LEGO Dimension’s development period.

Some have theorised this could’ve eventually been turned into a Level Pack for LEGO Dimensions, while others think this could be a pitch of sorts to get the game entered into production by the license holders for James Bond.
Most sources seem to think this is the latter, however.
Despite the excitement around the project, it seems that the powers that be have decided not to move ahead with the project. Perhaps owing to the less family-friendly nature of the series, though I personally would have loved to see this happen.
While we’ve yet to see what the next LEGO game will be, the latest one, LEGO Horizon Adventures, has been a hit with younger audiences.
