007 First Light is set to release for PS5, Nintendo Switch 2, Xbox Series X|S, and PC on March 27, 2026. It’s a new origin story for James Bond, so it stars a young version of the MI6 agent, before he becomes the slick professional who’s been a cinema mainstay for decades now. The game is developed by IO Interactive, the same team that made the Hitman: World of Assassination games. It’s available for preorder now in several editions. Read on to see what comes in each one.

Developer IO Interactive is billing 007: First Light as a “narrative action-adventure game.” You play as a young James Bond who’s a new recruit to the MI6 training program. He’s resourceful and talented, but also cocky and reckless — a more unseasoned Bond than we’ve seen in the movies.
As for the main mission, you’re “in pursuit of a rogue agent who’s always one step ahead.” That’s 009, who’s presumably the main villain. That pursuit sends you to lots of interesting and gorgeous locations around the world. In the trailers, we’ve seen mountainous, watery areas, as well as nightclubs, rooftops, and open-air plazas. It looks like you can drive cars and pilot boats.
You can play the levels stealthily, using gadgets to help get you where you need to be, or you can go in guns blazing — Bond famously has a license to kill, after all. This is no surprise, as the Hitman games famously allow players lots of freedom in how they complete the tasks. You can check out our 007 First Light hands-on preview for lots more info on it.
