Young and Vulnerable Bond’s Origin Story in 007: First Light (Mar. 27, 2026)

In 007: First Light, players will encounter a young, less confident, and more vulnerable James Bond. Creative Director Hakan Abrak envisioned a portrayal that moves beyond an immediate superhero, instead chronicling Bond’s formative years, mistakes, challenges, and development before he became the iconic agent. Irish actor Patrick Gibson, known for his role in Dexter, embodies this younger Bond. The game’s combat system reflects recent Daniel Craig-era films, emphasizing a more physical, agile, and intense approach. This new 007 title is set to launch on March 27, 2026, for PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Switch 2, promising diverse missions and a story exploring Bond’s origins.
