007 First Light has been delayed by two months, developer IO Interactive has confirmed.

The James Bond game was first planned to release on March 27, 2026. It will now launch on May 27, 2026.

In a statement shared on the game’s official X and Bluesky accounts, IO Interactive CEO and game director Hakan Abrak said the extra time is needed for final polish and quality.

“Today, we are sharing an update regarding 007 First Light, as we have decided to move the game’s release by two months, to the 27th of May 2026,” Habrak said.

“007 First Light is our most ambitious project to date, and the team has been fully focused on delivering an unforgettable James Bond experience, bringing together breathtaking action, globe-trotting, spycraft, gadgets, car chases, and more.”

“As an independent developer and publisher, this decision allows us to ensure the experience meets the level of quality you players deserve on day one.”

“The game is progressing well and is fully playable from beginning to end, so these additional two months will allow us to further polish and refine the experience, ensuring we deliver the strongest possible version at launch.”

“We’re confident this sets 007 First Light up for long-term success, and we sincerely appreciate the patience and continued support we’ve received ever since we revealed the game.”

“We look forward to sharing more updates regarding 007 First Light in early 2026. Thank you again for your support.”

Despite the delay, the game is still planned to release on the same day for PS5, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch 2, and PC.
