– The base PS5 will offer two graphics modes at launch on May 27, 2026: a 60 FPS Performance Mode and a 30 FPS Quality Mode.
– Visual resolutions for the PS5’s two graphics modes were not shared by the developer.
– Top-range PC towers will run the game better than the PS5 Pro.
– The PS5 Pro will be the best console platform for playing 007 First Light.
IO Interactive has offered the first real look at 007 First Light running on a PS5 Pro, showcasing the same chaotic airport sequence that debuted during last year’s State of Play deep dive. The developer confirmed the upgraded console will deliver a smooth 60 frames-per-second experience, and a short clip of the action has been posted to social media.
In follow-up comments, the studio clarified that the base PS5 will launch on May 27th, 2026 with two distinct graphics modes, though specific resolution targets were not disclosed. The options are a Performance Mode locked at 60 frames-per-second and a Quality Mode capped at 30 frames-per-second.
High-end PC rigs will naturally outperform the PS5 Pro, but for console players seeking the definitive version of this James Bond simulator, Sony’s enhanced hardware appears to be the clear winner. That logic extends to most other titles on the platform as well.
We are planning to have a full 007 First Light PS5 review ready for the embargo window. In the meantime, you can catch up on our hands-on impressions from a recent preview event.
