But it is a Game-Key Card. IO Interactive’s 007 First Light was one of the most surprising Switch 2 reveals during the April 2025 Nintendo Direct. The Hitman developers were already giving us its World of Assassination trilogy, but a brand new game — let alone a James Bond game? — yes please. Now, courtesy…
What a difference a few months makes: Variety says Amazon’s live-action Tomb Raider series, which was reportedly “dead” in April, is set to begin production in January 2026, with Game of Thrones actor Sophie Turner set to take the lead as renowned artifact plunderer Lara Croft.

It’s been five long years since IO Interactive first announced that it would be taking on Project 007, now known as 007 First Light. It’s a pairing that goes together seamlessly, as IO has been making Hitman games for almost 25 years now. But even with all that practice, it was still a huge undertaking….
007 First Light finds the sweet spot to start a James Bond videogame. It’s not necessarily an origin story, as Bond has already made his way into the lower levels of MI6, but it takes place early enough that IO Interactive can showcase a 007 that many may not have seen before, making this more…
