IO Interactive’s 007 First Light revealed with a gameplay trailer

IO Interactive has just revealed its James Bond game, which will now be officially called 007 First Light. 007 First Light will be using the Glacier Engine, it will come out in 2026, and below you can find its debut trailer.

In 007 First Light, follow James Bond as a young, resourceful, and sometimes reckless recruit in MI6’s training program, and discover an origin story of the world’s most famous spy.

To be honest, 007 First Light gave me both Kingmans and James Bond vibes. I don’t know if this is what the team wanted to achieve. But, the main character is mostly something you’d see in a Kingsman game. As for the gameplay, 007 First Light is heavily inspired by the Hitman series.

Contrary to Hitman, though, 007 First Light will have more action. So, I guess we’re looking at a game that will allow you to approach the missions with both stealth and action styles. Or at least that’s what the trailer implied.

Enjoy and stay tuned for more!
