There was a lot of buzz back on January 1st when a set of achievements for GoldenEye 007 on Xbox were discovered along with a bunch of images, and now it looks like we'll finally get official news on the remaster very soon.

As reported by VGC, it was stated by VentureBeat's Jeff Grubb on the latest episode of the Giant Bomb "Grubbsnax" show that he believes the game's reveal "is probably coming pretty soon, I’m thinking next couple of weeks," with Grubb also suggesting that Microsoft will reveal it rather than Nintendo.

In regards to the latter, VGC also says it's heard Microsoft will be the one to announce the remaster.

We're still not quite sure what to expect from the release, although the leaked screenshots appear to suggest it will simply be an HD touch-up of the original N64 version, rather than based on the cancelled Xbox 360 remaster / remake.

As soon as we get more details on this one, we'll be sure to let you know. Let's hope it's soon!
