007 First Light

007: First Light is not only the best Bond game ever made, it’s also the best Bond story since “Casino Royale” in 2006.

007 First Light has everything it takes to become a brilliant franchise: presence, gameplay, its own distinct style, and above all, a well-crafted narrative that elevates the James Bond iconography.

IO Interactive have delivered their vodka Martini shaken, though it causes plenty of stirs along the way. It's a rip-roaring, globe-trotting adventure that delivers thrills galore, with a shockingly good emotional core to deliver on the premise of 007's origin story. One of 2026's best games has arrived, and what a privilege it is to have James Bond back in full, unapologetic confidence.

007 First Light has that distinct feel of a seventh-generation console action game thanks to features it borrows from other games of that era—and even some more recent ones—to create an immersive, fun, and thrilling experience that had been somewhat missing from video games.

007 First Light is a perfect blend of the espionage aplomb of the Hitman series and the cinematic action of Uncharted. It pleasantly alternates between the two, catapulting the player into a myriad of situations that are always stimulating and, above all, excellently written, so well-crafted they seem to have been plucked from a good 007 movie. The new James Bond has lost none of his charm: his irresistible knowing smile, his seductive gaze, his approach that can be at times frivolous, trendy, and style-icon-like, at times profound and intelligent, almost like a philosopher in the field. With him, the cast of characters lays a solid foundation for what could be another successful franchise for IO Interactive. There are some elements that are out of place—most notably the enemy AI that's just not convincing—but when Bond enters the fray and the adrenaline rush rises, 007 First Light manages to make up for it with spectacular storytelling and an irresistible pace. A fun, incisive, and very contemporary video game. To quote a maxim from Agent 007, this series "has all the time in the world" to become perfect.

007 First Light features a sophisticated and comprehensive infiltration system, as well as solid hand-to-hand combat mechanics. The lackluster cover system does not detract from what could mark a new era for 007 in the world of video games.

First Light largely waters down all of the complexity that IOI Interactive has come to be known for through Hitman, and with cinematic action redolent of Uncharted.

The game is "pretty good." My score is entirely for gameplay, but the visuals, voice acting, story, and so on, are all good to great. Bond's VA especially. But the gameplay... 1. Definitely nails the spy/espionage feel with the gadget mechanic. Gadgets involve resource management, which is great for combat but can be an unnecessary hinder to the spy puzzle solving when you've got to run around looking for charge/chemicals. A minor nuisance, but when the game gives you recharging resources it makes me think, "This would feel so much better as the norm..." 2. Combat is lacking though. In melee, parries are not satisfying or worth it because you only get the counter on the last hit, unless the enemy finishes with a grab in which case you cannot parry at all. Therefore.. just dodge all attacks/grabs and punish with your combos. The game gives you lots of options, but when dash attack, punch, gut punch, grab+slam either finishes or grants a takedown opportunity, it becomes repetitive. 3. Personally don't care much for the range of guns but the game not only gives you bullet time but also aim assist (even on "hard"). Not only that, you can just run around and enemies have very poor accuracy. I get that Bond films are full of action but some moments feel like a generic shooter game on easy. Ultimately I had a good experience (despite it being quite buggy, experiencing a soft lock, crashes, and minor bugs but I'm forgiving a new release from a smaller developer) and would be open to the next Bond game hoping they make improvements. It was rather short though, about 15 hours.

Gameplay not very different from Hitman, i have expected more driving. Story not special usual Bond stories. This is no NextGen Video game

J'ai eu énormément de mal à finir ce jeu, dans le sens où je n'avais tout simplement plus envie d'y jouer. Les graphismes sont bons, le lore est très moyen, mal exploité selon moi, c'est très répétitif, tout est très dirigiste, le manque de munitions qui se veut réaliste est en fin de compte assez pénible. Je ne suis finalement pas la cible pour ce jeu.

Admittedly, I am a little biased because I had high hopes for this game—so I’ll adjust the rating accordingly. I finished the game feeling just meh. Combat was clunky at times. Storyline was predictable. Stealth was barebones, which was the biggest disappointment. Repeatedly burning trash as distraction throughout the playthrough? Come on. My favorite part of the game was sniping enemies’ heads. That’s it.
