007 First Light - Before You Buy
James Bond hasn't had a proper video game in over a decade. That changes May 27, 2026 - and IO Interactive, the studio behind Hitman, is the team doing it. Before you spend your money, here's an honest breakdown of everything you need to know about 007 First Light.
As someone who loves stealth and playing incognito - whether that's Assassin's Creed or Hitman - this game is ticking every box for me. Spycraft, gadgets, social engineering, infiltration, eavesdropping, and a Bond who hasn't fully become Bond yet. But the systems are new territory for IO, the delay raises small questions, and how deeply the game actually rewards a full stealth approach is still unknown.
Watch the full breakdown, then stay for the raw gameplay footage and judge it yourself.
