I remember playing the opening of Hitman 3 and watching Agent 47 drop from a plane onto the tallest skyscraper in Dubai, navigate its exterior, climb through a window, effortlessly swap his gear for something more formal, and seamlessly blend into the crowd as he hunted his targets. The only feeling I had during that sequence was assurance.
Assurance that IO Interactive could not only nail an involved James Bond experience, but also apply everything it has learned from its rich catalog of stealth and action games to create something truly special. 007 First Light is exactly that: a fantastic game that leverages the studio’s many strengths to deliver one of the best titles of the year.
This sounds like an exciting take on the James Bond franchise! It’s always great to see games that capture the essence of such iconic characters. Looking forward to hearing more about your thoughts on the gameplay!
