Xbox One / Series Goldeneye 007 IS integrated with Rare Replay, though, in that if you own Rare Replay the game is free. I was really surprised by that, lots of people own Rare Replay and giving all of them a free copy of Goldeneye is pretty generous, that probably lost a lot of sales...
Otherwise, the Xbox 360 version and X1 online play probably were casualties of Nintendo not wanting Microsoft to have a clearly better version of the game than they were getting. That back and forth is a major part of why the X360/Wii versions never released in the first place, after all. They came to an agreement this time, but unfortunately for only the original version of the game with some control tweaks.
