A large variety of global locations
Satisfying stealth with a ton of dynamism
Seamless weaving between close-quarters combat and cover-based gunplay is masterfully designed
Intriguing story with great, memorable characters and worryingly contemporary plot points
Functional mirrors!

A tad glitchy, with checkpointing often creating inconsistent scenarios on load, as well as oddities with Xbox Quick Resume

The atmosphere and the James Bond spirit are perfectly captured. Graphically, it's stunning! (especially on PC) There's a nice balance between stealth, investigation, gadgets, combat, and gunfights. The hand-to-hand fights are exhilarating. The staging is top-notch. The story is captivating from start to finish. Well-written, well-crafted dialogues. The pacing is also well-controlled. A game that takes you on a journey, that immerses you. The finale is
AI of enemies too permissive. We would have liked more car sequences (they come through updates). Gemma Chan's character underexploited. No French dubbing.

007 First Light respects the essence of James Bond, even while presenting an original origin story.
Subtitled in Brazilian Portuguese
Close combat is fun and fits the protagonist's personality.
The story blends espionage, action, conspiracy, and cinematic atmosphere very well.
The variety of gameplay can be enjoyable for different types of players.

It's really super beautiful
The staging, worthy of a great 007 movie
The story, full of twists and turns and meta with the use of artificial intelligence.
The QTE phases, really dynamic.
The dialogues and the acting of the characters, more lifelike
Respect for the world of 007, from the character's writing, to the gadgets and all of its environment
The gameplay, which offers a great deal of freedom of action to the player nonetheless
The backstage of MI6
A really mean, stylish villain, even if he sometimes goes a little overboard.
A reimagining of the character and his rise to power, between spy, man of principle, and seducer.
The incredible opening credits of Lana del Rey and the presence of the Gun Barrel
We vote for Patrick Gibson for the next film.

The AI NPCs are lazy to the point that it?s laughable in parts
Only being able to take two gadgets on missions seems restrictive
Some may find the stealth portions a bit repetitive

Close combat surprises with attention to detail in physics and animation that elevates the entire Glacier engine to a new level.
The story and scenario set new standards for AAA games - funnier, warmer, and more coherent than anything IO Interactive has written so far.
Patrick Gibson brings depth to the character of James Bond through a genuine vulnerability, which had been missing from Bond's portrayals for years.
Lennie James as the reluctant mentor Greenway is one of the best supporting characters the medium has seen in recent years.
The arsenal of gadgets is carefully limited and gives each use of the Q watch, dart phone, or laser bracelet a tactical weight.
The extended Glacier engine offers clean technical performance - stable 60 FPS on PS5 Pro, scalable PC options thanks to DLSS, FSR and XeSS.
Randomly mixing sneaking, fighting, and deceiving in one section creates truly unique and unrepeatable gameplay moments.

Randomly mixing sneaking, fighting, and deceiving in one section creates truly unique and unrepeatable gameplay moments.
Tactical simulation is an additional mode that is fine, but it never replaces the true sandbox replayability of the Hitman trilogy.
The mechanics of firearms remain the weak link in the chain - functional, but lacking that tactile bite.
The main antagonists have too little screen time with Bond to create a truly threatening adversary dynamic.
Ray tracing is not available at launch and will only be added in the summer of 2026 - frustrating for PC enthusiasts equipped with the proper hardware.
The espionage work sections seem too linear compared to the opportunities in Hitman and guide the player too much.
In the middle of the second half, there is an extended passage in an almost empty office complex that clearly slows down the heart rate.
The second version of the Nintendo Switch is eagerly awaited and will not be released until the summer of 2026 - it's a real blow for Switch fans.

GamesWeltVery powerful systemic missions
Several ways to solve and playful freedom
Translation in English: Successful transfer of Hitman's stealth DNA.
Dense and visually high-quality atmospheric staging
Interesting approach of an untrained young James Bond
Good balance between observation, planning, and improvised climbing.
In the best moments, a true spy sandbox with high immersion.
Solid and functional story with enough space for character development.

The fractures between cinematic staging and visible gameplay mechanisms.
Sometimes arbitrary or artificial gameplay limits.
The action sections are less profound than the fleeting and systemic passages.
Occasionally, there is a stylistic inconsistency between the ambition and the execution.
Small technical inaccuracies and breaks in immersion
Structured moments are in opposition to the usual systemic freedom.

Slightly imprecise targeting system
The opponent's artificial intelligence does not always react in a credible manner.
The hiking and climbing system remains quite simple.
