Retailer HMV has overtaken in revealing the name of the next 007 game, James Bond: Bloodstone.

CVG spotted the HMV entry that lists Bloodstone as a driving game, which coincides with previous assertions from developer that it was working on a 007 game.

Activision has been contacted for comment, but there hasn't been any substantive discussion of the up until this point. With the fate of the next Bond up in the air, Activision has likely wanted to stay quiet.

Even though the film won't be out for some time, expect Bloodstone details soon in anticipation of an autumn release.
