007 First Light | State of Play Reveal Trailer (Releases 2026)

In what way? It doesn't seem live they've taken a very inspired direction for the game. It looks like Hitman, only with a non-automaton protag. You can also see the Switch 2 all over this thing, looks last gen as fuck.
"It looks like Hitman" ALREADY makes it the most promising game by default, given that the recent Hitman games were great, AND it looks like a Hitman where they threw a bunch of extra shit to the formula, like frantic action sequences, chases, etc. Which will probably benefit its variety.

Ahhh the usual throwing enemies to the floor and nearby enemies not hearing or reacting, COD floor slides, dodging bullets 🤣 I'll happily hold my hands up and eat crow if the gameplay shows otherwise but that looked fucking awful.

American Uncharted: The Drake Jones Bond mashup.
 
It's like Roger Moore had sex with Timothy Dalton.
To me, at one or two points Bond made me think of:
I Dont Arrested Development GIF
 
Wish it was more serious and the art style kinda is different?? It visually looks accomplished from a technical point of view.

Disappointing. A bond game should be bad ass and make you want to be bond. I felt nothing, it was cheesy, it wasn't bond, felt seriously off and I don't like "let's make a young gen z bond set now" the opposite of what I hoped, which was set it in the spirit of and setting/time of the original early books.

This show was one let down after another.
 
Gone head and cancel it for me, baby.

Looks like an Uncharted clone with the tone of a 6th gen console third party licensed multiplat.
 
I dont know man... it kind of hit the marks but the indian Q set up the alarms.

That scar gives me the feeling that they will make a bait and switch at the end of the game with Jame Bond becoming Ernst Stavro Blofeld, Doctor no or whatever and then some diverse best friend that was betrayed will take the mantle of 007 in this trilogy.

I want to believe... but we have been in this rodeo for so long.

Well if it uses the same stuff animation systems, its not going to feel good to execute those action sequences.

And James Bond isn't Hitman. It should look and feel very different.
 
Terrible.

Cultural vandalism.

The British government needs to take the Bond IP back from Amazon. By extreme force if necessary.
 
I think I'm going to have to read these books.
There nothing like the movies. The movies only share the titles (for the most part). I believe they were written in the late 40's and 50's. No tech whatsoever. I think Bond was revealed to be Scottish in the movie Skyfall.

The actor that plays young Dexter, eh. He's great in that show, but Bond? I'm not seeing it here. And also, I didn't expect it to look so colorful, cartoony. Had expected it to be way darker, grittier. This footage didn't do much for me.
 
Wtf was that? I had high hopes from the second IOI announced working on the ip. This looks like a generic 6.5/10 cover shooter. What is going on? Even Bond himself looks generic af.

Ultra disappointed. wow. still can't believe what i just watched.

Im on disbelief right now complete fumble.

How does Hitman feel more bond than this.

Is that guy cast in the Amazon reboot too? If so, no fucking way.

From Google
In the Ian Fleming James Bond novel "From Russia, with Love," Bond is described as having a "scar on his right cheek." This scar, along with other physical characteristics like blue-grey eyes and short, black hair, is a consistent part of Bond's portrayal in the novels.
 
Not super excited to play as a 12 year old bond whose balls haven't dropped yet, but some of the gameplay sequences reminded me of the bourne & splinter cell games.
Definitely the best game that was shown from a gameplay perspective personally
 
I hate the IP but that looked really good and it's built on top of everything this studio is already good at.
 
Looks like 4chan was right for once:
