IO Interactive is excited to release the official story trailer for 007 First Light, which debuted recently on the State of Play. In 007 First Light, players step into the role of a young Bond at the very beginning of his journey, before the tuxedo, before the martinis, and before the number.
Story Summary
Entering the world of espionage largely on his own, Bond finds an unexpected advocate in M, who recognizes his potential as an agent capable of taking control when situations turn desperate, and of completing his objectives by whatever means necessary. Standing in contrast is John Greenway, a former 00 agent and the training instructor for the new programme. A disciplined, by-the-book operative, Greenway’s strict philosophy clashes early with Bond’s instinctive and improvisational approach to the field.
Despite their differences, the two are forced to work together as the resurgence of 009, a former British operative now turned rogue and on the loose, emerges as the 00 programme’s first real test in the field. The pursuit takes Bond across the globe, from the quiet Carpathian Mountains to the dangerous black market of Aleph, ruled by the unpredictable Bawma, portrayed by Lenny Kravitz.
007 First Light will be released on May 27, 2026, for the PS5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch 2, and PC via Steam.
