The first new Bond game in over a decade is Hitman meets action blockbuster

IO Interactive seemingly wrapped up its assassination series Hitman in 2023, launching the anthology on practically every game platform. But it's not done with sneaking, subterfuge, and... sniper rifles. The game developer announced that it was making a new James Bond game, teasing an "unrefined" Bond in training - yes, it's another reimagined origin story. At a closed-door briefing at Gamescom, I watched the team play through some early parts of 007 First Light, with Bond part of a team of more seasoned spies hunting down a rogue double-'o' agent. Ah, that sounds like a Bond plot.
