IO Interactive’s James Bond game revealed as ‘007 First Light’

In the years since splitting from Square Enix and becoming an independent studio, IO Interactive has been quietly working away on a brand new James Bond game. Now, we finally have a title – 007 First Light. 

IO Interactive has revealed a teaser image for its new James Bond game, titled 007 First Light. The studio plans to reveal the game later this week, so expect a trailer in the coming days.

Whether or not this trailer will include a release date, or any real gameplay footage, still remains to be seen. Still, it is an exciting development, as IO Interactive is the perfect studio to deliver a new take on James Bond, thanks to its decades of experience working on the Hitman games.

007 First Light will feature a new version of James Bond, not tied to any previous film or book, and will tell an original story. IO Interactive has ambition to continue this series beyond the first game too, but whether or not we get a sequel likely depends on how well the first game sells.

KitGuru Games: DLSS 5 misses the point

It would be hard to argue that NVIDIA’s DLSS technologies haven’t been a net positive to the PC space, with the machine-learning based upscaler successfully translating lower resolution inputs into a final image which is perceivably sharper while hogging fewer resources. Though somewhat more contentious, the next evolution of DLSS came in the form of Frame Generation, using ML in order to generate additional frames for high-refresh rate gaming. Both techniques can have their issues, but generally speaking they’ve allowed for more people to experience higher-end titles at increased frame rates. DLSS 5, however, takes a sharp pivot, with a very different end goal in mind than the performance-boosting versions that came before.
