IO Interactive revealed its upcoming game, 007: First Light. As the name implies, the game stars a youthful James Bond, who has just joined MI6 after his work in the Royal Navy. IO Interactive first revealed it was working on a Bond title, codenamed Project 007, some time ago. The game is set to launch in 2026 on PlayStation 5.
IOI describes the game thus: “The trailer gives you a taste of what’s to come: you’ll be able to travel the world and discover exciting locations, from snow-drenched mountains to sun-soaked beaches. You will, of course, get to meet and interact with some of the characters who have become synonymous with the James Bond franchise, such as M, Q, and Moneypenny.”
The trailer shows several scenarios that fall in line with the Bond franchise, including his action chops, his ability to smoothly interact with assets, as well as his propensity to engage in shenanigans in gorgeous international locations. IO Interactive says in the reveal blog: “With varied gameplay mixing intense combat, full throttle driving, stealth, and cutting-edge gadgets. You’ll be able to fully immerse yourself in a world filled with deception and danger, powered by our proprietary engine, Glacier.”
