007 First Light Reveal This Week

It looks like the rumors are true as the reveal has been confirmed for this week.

-Foxtrot353d ago

Looking forward to it but that title is pretty generic for a Bond title.

It just reminds me of Infamous First Light.

toxic-inferno353d ago

There's a suggestion they want it to be part of a trilogy, so maybe the name will make more sense if/when the two follow-ups are announced.

For example:
First Light / Daylight / Final Light
First Light / Second Sight / Final Rite

Both VERY poor examples (I'm no writer, after all... These would be terrible names!) but it illustrates the idea.

Also, 'Agent Under Fire', 'Nightfire' and 'Bloodstone' are all pretty rubbish titles compared to Bond films.

Even 'Skyfall' seems like a fairly mediocre title when taken out of context.

Garethvk353d ago

True. The proof will be in the play.

Profchaos353d ago

Recent Bond films have all struggled with generic titles honestly. Skyfall spectre Quantum of solace

I mean none of those have a title like Octopussy

Zeldafan64353d ago

Quantum of Solace is a good title imo.

toxic-inferno353d ago

Quantum of Solace is a title of one of the original short stories by Ian Fleming.

The story of the movie is not based on that short story, however.

Chard352d ago

Yeah the name is a non-issue, I’m more interested in how they handle Bond’s appearance since there’s currently no movie Bond - will it be some fictional new guy? Daniel Craig? Some kind of selector where we can pick from Connery, Brosnan, etc? (unlikely unless they can somehow tune the voice acting per face option with AI)
I’m guessing 3rd person given their Hitman background but would be happy with either 1st or 3rd. Perfect Dark is gonna be a 1st person game, getting made by the Tomb Raider devs

Profchaos352d ago (Edited 352d ago )

@chard in the past they have hated to include faces of ex bonds because they would need to pay them

The great circle is a pretty fucking dumb name too, but that game exceeded my expectations 😂 fingers crossed this is the same

RaidenBlack353d ago

ngl, that teaser poster looks kinda cool

Garethvk353d ago

Someone asked me who Bond would look like. I said it would be great to have the new Bond reveal as part of it but likely an amalgamation of Bond characteristics.

toxic-inferno353d ago

I think they'll go for a version that more closely fits his description from the original novels. What you can see here fits that fairly well. I hope they'll set this in the era of the original books, rather than it be modern day, but who knows.

I really like the look of his coat from this! A minor detail, but it looks promising.

Garethvk353d ago

That would be interesting. Low tech by our standards.

@Toxic-inferno
I think it will start in like 60's / 70's to end up in present time, they aim for a trilogy after all:

"It's completely beginning and becoming a story, hopefully for a big trilogy out there in the future. And equally important and exciting, it's a new Bond," IOI boss Hakan Abrak said in October.

"Featuring a wholly original Bond story, players will step into the shoes of the world's favorite Secret Agent to earn their 00 status in the very first James Bond origin story."

Sonic1881353d ago

Is this supposed to be a stealth action game or just a full action game?

toxic-inferno353d ago

We'll presumably find out when it is revealed.

I hope they take what makes Hitman so good (dynamic missions, multiple paths, etc.) and apply it to the James Bond license. That way we'd get the choice of action or stealth. Adding in dialogue options could make for a good shift in that gameplay style too.

RaidenBlack353d ago

Stealth-biased, given its from IOI themselves.

Garethvk353d ago

Not likely. At least at launch.

Profchaos353d ago

They have ported Hitman games to be so it's possible but I wouldn't expect it immediately

The 007 First Light PS5 DualSense looks cool, but where are the Nintendo Switch accessories?

James Bond fans can pre-order the 007 First Light DualSense, but the lack of Nintendo Switch accessories is sad, considering Bond's gaming heritage.

Oooooooo....... gotta get me one of these

Neonridr43d ago

guess I'm adding to the growing collection.

DazaMc42d ago

Is this meant to be inside the barrel of his gun? Shouldn’t the lines be spiraling?

Loktai42d ago

I think its a sunburst pattern "first light" But , I dont know.. it seems middle of the road. I know the image etc youre describing from past bond stuff, not sure if this is maybe a missed opportunity.. the style of this bond is much different.

fr0sty42d ago

It... looks like a butthole the way they drew it. Yes, there should be rifling to stay true to the bond aesthetic.

Dexterio42d ago (Edited 42d ago )

Well, of course I have to get this… to go with all the other special editions I have. Controllers are like pokemon to me… gotta catch em all.
