007 First Light

007 First Light is IO Interactive's James Bond origin story, and at The Game Collection you can buy it for PS5, Xbox Series X and PC, with the Switch 2 version available to pre-order. IO Interactive is the studio behind the Hitman series, and that background shows in a game built around stealth, action and gadgets rather than a straight run-and-gun.

You play a young, reckless 26-year-old Bond, a Royal Navy recruit brought into MI6 and tasked with earning his 00 status. The missions take you around the globe, so expect espionage that shifts between quiet infiltration and louder set pieces. If you like the planning side of Hitman, or just want a Bond story that starts before the tuxedo, this is the one to pick up. It sits well alongside other action adventure games if you are building up a shelf.

Choosing your edition and platform

On PlayStation, we stock the 007 First Light Legacy Edition for PS5, which is the one to pick if you want more than the base game. Xbox owners can choose between the standard edition for Xbox Series X and the Legacy Edition for Xbox Series X, so you can decide whether the extra content is worth it to you. More titles for that console are in our Xbox Series X games range.

On PC, both the standard Code in a Box edition and the Legacy Edition Code in a Box are available. Check the product page for what each edition includes before you order, and browse our wider PC games if you want something to play alongside it.

The Nintendo Switch 2 version is a pre-order and is due on 18 March 2027. You can reserve the 007 First Light Switch 2 game now, and it will be sent to you when it releases.

A controller to match on PS5

If you are playing on PlayStation, the 007 First Light Limited Edition DualSense Wireless Controller is a good pairing, and it also works as a gift for a Bond fan who already owns the game. Our full range of PS5 controllers is there if you want a spare for co-op sessions on other games. Free UK delivery and Reward Points on every order.
