007 First Light: Stealth-Action Adventure Blending Hitman and Uncharted, Arrives March 2025 Across Multiple Platforms

A recent State of Play presentation focused on 007 First Light, revealing key details about the upcoming game. It is a third-person adventure that blends the stealth elements of Hitman with the cinematic action of Uncharted. The demo began with a young Bond infiltrating a luxurious Swiss mountain hotel party without proper documents. To achieve this, he employs Agent 47-style tactics reminiscent of Hitman, such as distracting guards and identifying alternative entry points. Once inside, Bond's mission involves locating his target by eavesdropping on conversations and manipulating NPCs to gather clues. The demo then transitions into an action segment, featuring a thrilling car chase that concludes with a confrontation against enemies on an airport runway. However, the demo exhibited performance issues, suggesting that IOI may need to optimize the game before its release. Regarding the release, while details from the State of Play presentation indicated a launch on March 27, 2026, additional information specifies a release on March 27, 2025, for PC, PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and Switch.

007 First Light: Legacy & Deluxe Editions - Release March 2025

Several editions of the game will be available. The Legacy Edition, which includes a golden gun, physical collectibles, unique outfits, character skins, and additional digital items, will sell for approximately $299 (or roughly R1600) in select markets. The Standard Edition is priced at about R299.90 ($70). As a special offer, pre-ordering the Standard Edition during the Legacy Edition's digital item pre-order period grants access to the Deluxe Edition and 24-hour early access.
