007 First Light brings a young Bond to the forefront

Early James Bond might be the coolest James Bond

We knew that IO Interactive was in the process of developing a game based on teh James Bond franchise, and that they would have more details later this week in a special showcase, but news on the title came earlier than expected. During Sony’s State of Play the developer/publisher dropped a big ole reveal trailer showing just what the game will be about.

First Light is set as a younger James Bond is beginning his career, bringing in his military training and learning the ropes of espionage. There are doubts to his abilities, but M thinks he’s up for the task.

The trailer is cinematic and sets the mood, with a full gameplay reveal coming later this week.

007: First Light arrives on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, Switch 2 and PC in 2026.
