007 First Light is a new project from IO Interactive, the creators of Hitman. The game combines spy elements with a dynamic action-adventure presentation in the style of Uncharted.
Development has been delayed: the release has been postponed to May 27, 2026, but new materials show that the game promises to be a full-fledged adventure, and not just "another licensed game."
007 First Light is part of the IGN Fan Fest program, which featured a new trailer with a new scene and a mysterious antagonist. The game tells about the beginning of young James Bond's career in MI6 and is not directly related to the films, giving IO Interactive the freedom to create a new story, locations and characters, while remaining true to the spirit of the franchise.
