Here’s our first look at a fresh-faced, whipper snapper of a James Bond in 007: First Light


You know the name, you know the number. Yes, it is James Bond 007, but like we have never seen him before.

During PlayStation’s State of Play this evening, developer IO Interactive of Hitman fame gave us our first look at 007: First Light. “Earn the Number,” reads the official blurb accompanying today’s new trailer, which features plenty of those Bond-themes we know and love. The cars, the weapons, the girls, the music. Ahh, I am excited!!

“In 007 First Light, play as James Bond, a young, resourceful, and sometimes reckless new recruit, and discover an origin story for the first time,” the developer continues, promising an “all-new game experience from IO Interactive”, set for release in 2026.

Here’s the trailer:

Towards the end of last year, IOI said it hopes its upcoming James Bond origin story will be the start of a trilogy, adding the release will not be a “gamification of a movie”.

007: First Light will also feature again later this week during IO’s own showcase, which is scheduled for Friday, 6th June, at 6pm PDT. That’s 2am on 7th June for those of us in the UK, but who am I kidding, I will be watching.
