The first episode released of a new developer diary series for 007 First Light titled “Beyond the Light,” that showcased behind the scenes video talks through the level design and gameplay ethos of the re-imagined James Bond origin story, and showcases the gameplay flexibility of the game’s spycraft, instinct, gadgets, and combat.
At the heart of 007 First Light lies the Creative Approach, a design philosophy that empowers players to complete missions in their own style, whether through stealth, direct action, or a mix of both.

Gadgets from Q Branch provide tactical flexibility, offering new ways to improvise and outsmart enemies. Meanwhile, Combat blends precision gunplay, close-quarters takedowns, and environmental interactions, ensuring every encounter feels personal and cinematic.
Alongside this freedom of approach, 007 First Light delivers the bold, handcrafted set-pieces that define the Bond franchise, from high-speed chases and tense action sequences to daring escapes at impossible altitudes. Each moment is designed to reflect Bond’s evolution into an elite agent, balancing danger, elegance, and spectacle in true 007 fashion.
