Get ready to step into the shoes of James Bond.
Amazon MGM Studios and independent video game developer IO Interactive have officially launched “007 First Flight,” a new game that reimagines James Bond’s origin story as the 26-year-old fights his way through MI6’s elite training program. This is the first James Bond game in 15 years.
An official description of the game reads: “For the first time in video games, fans will be able to experience Bond’s ascent at MI6 from a recruit into a fully-fledged spy, as his sharp instincts, resourcefulness, and heroism propel him through the ranks and into the world of high-stakes covert operations.”
The game also features an original theme by Lana Del Rey and David Arnold, who scored five of the James Bond films. The voice cast is rounded out by Gemma Chan, Lenny Kravitz, Patrick Gibson, Priyanga Burford and Alastair McKenzie.
“With 007 First Light, we set out to honor the incredible legacy of 007 while creating a Bond gaming experience like no other,” IO Interactive CEO Hakan Abrak said in a statement. “This is a Bond still finding his footing, one players can grow with on his journey shaped by instincts, intelligence, and the resolve that ultimately built the character’s lasting impact.”
