PC Gamer took their team of secret agents on a daring mission to pay a visit to IOI’s Copenhagen office, gathering all information possible about 007 First Light.
Featuring interviews from Hakan Abrak, CEO; Dominic Vega, Audio & Missions Director; Rasmus Poulsen, Art Director; and Martin Emborg, Narrative & Cinematic Director, they dove into IOI’s passion for the espionage genre and how it shaped the approach to building an original James Bond game from the ground up. Instead of borrowing from past movies, 007 First Light is a fully original origin story, starring a younger, more inexperienced Bond, and narrating his early days in MI6.
The team explains the respect they have for Ian Fleming’s novels and the rich cinematic history of James Bond, ensuring they stay committed to capturing the tone and spirit while putting IOI’s creative stamp on the character.
Visually and on a technical level, 007 First Light is built on IOI’s cutting-edge Glacier Engine, pushing the in-house tools further than ever before. The video highlights how the team aims to create a world that feels cinematic and immersive while still letting players live out the fantasy of being a spy.
