IO Interactive’s 007 First Light has finally arrived, and it delivers the kind of cinematic, high-octane experience that makes you feel like you’re inside a classic James Bond film. The game’s introductory tutorial is so polished and immersive that it’s easy to forget you’re holding a controller. For fans of the Hitman series who have been counting down the days for the studio’s latest project , and for newcomers alike , there are already solid discounts available on both PlayStation 5 and Steam.
Costco members can snag an online-only deal for the disc-based PS5 version, bringing the price down to $62.99 from the standard $69.99. While the savings aren’t enormous, it’s currently the best offer across major retailers. If you’re gaming on a desktop PC or a handheld device like the Steam Deck, Fanatical is offering the standard digital edition for $60.89. For those wanting extra in-game cosmetics, the deluxe digital edition is priced at $69.59, roughly $10 off its original cost.
At its core, 007 First Light shares DNA with recent Hitman titles, functioning as a third-person stealth sandbox. However, it also borrows heavily from Naughty Dog’s Uncharted series. The hand-to-hand combat feels sharp and responsive, the protagonist delivers snappy one-liners, and the mission variety keeps things fresh. You’ll find yourself sneaking through environments with clever gadgets one moment and tearing through streets in a muscle car the next.
