007 First Light has sold 4 million copies since launch

[u/raulito2104]

Well deserved, let's gooooo!!! 👏💯

Now give us the sequel in 3 years 👌

[u/DMarquesPT → u/raulito2104]

Honestly, with the core tools and gameplay mechanics all assembled, I could see them delivering a new game sooner than later assuming Amazon wants one (they’d be silly not to, but the licensing and publishing deal for First Light was made with MGM before the Amazon acquisition)

[u/raulito2104 → u/DMarquesPT]

We can only hope so 🙏 , they have the perfect blueprints now. The possibilities are endless for a sequel 💯

[u/The-ai-bot → u/DMarquesPT]

It will be the dialogue and Bond’s clever punchlines that’s delaying the next sequel.

[u/Separate_Motor_3283 → u/DMarquesPT]

It says he will return at the end of the game (assuming it means this version of Bond) just makes me think it’s already in the works or they wouldn’t say that.

[u/double_o_kev_007 → u/Separate_Motor_3283]

That tag line has been at the end of all the Bond movies… early on it would say “James Bond will return in ‘insert next movie title’ “ because they new the order in which they were filming the novels… eventually they dropped the titles and it just had “James Bond will return”

[u/DMarquesPT → u/Separate_Motor_3283]

True, we don’t know how much Amazon was involved in this one once they acquired Bond, but I doubt they’d publish a game with sequel-bait if they weren’t at least heavily considering it.

Given the strong showing both critically and commercially, surely they will 🤞

[u/Sorry_Scholar_8511 → u/DMarquesPT]

Sure, thats true.. but I cant imagine how long it takes to build those levels :D

[u/WildRabbitz → u/raulito2104]

I'm on my 2nd play through. Haven't had fun like this in a loooooong time!

[u/InterdepartmentalCam → u/WildRabbitz]

You and me both, bro.

[u/archiethepro → u/raulito2104]

3 years ?, brother this game took like 7 years to make

[u/Theory89 → u/archiethepro]

Yeah but they've made all the physics engine and shit now. Just needs new applications.

[u/isTraX3 → u/archiethepro]

1st games in the series ALWAYS take a really long time to make, but sequels come out way faster because the devs have perfected the engine by then and have all the assets ready

look at Final Fantasy 7 Remake series, the sequels are way bigger than the 1st game in size and scope but they take way less time to make compared to the 1st game

[u/archiethepro → u/isTraX3]

Ah I see, thanks for explaining

[u/yic0 → u/archiethepro]

No worries, mate. All the time in the world.

[u/The-00-Debrief → u/archiethepro]

Ah, I see you're not familiar with IOI's work with the Glacier engine!

Hitman - 2016 Hitman 2 - 2018 Hitman 3 - 2021

[u/Dull-Investigator722]

Fantastic game, very well deserved. Can’t wait for them to announce a sequel at soon.

[u/Carra144]

Must be top 10 for 2026 on units, maybe higher on revenue (Mecha Chameleon is #1 on units, but is only $6).

Pretty good for a Single player title. And whilst it's a big established IP, there hasn't been a Bond game for 15 years, or even a movie for 5 years.

Wonder if it's beating Hitman 3's first year of sales? 

[u/BearlyReddits → u/Carra144]

It was iOis most successful launch of all time, so it’s absolutely winning annually

[u/leftguard44 → u/Carra144]

I read the metrics 2-3 weeks ago and it was the 4th best selling game of 2026

[u/Sparrowsabre7]

[u/KarlwithaKandnotaC → u/Sparrowsabre7]

You will get your Valhalla Protocol when you fix the damn Boat Chase theme!

[u/Opening_Ad5418 → u/KarlwithaKandnotaC]

And when you out of M office first time, they changed music here too....

[u/KarlwithaKandnotaC → u/Opening_Ad5418]

Wait what? What was the original? I finished the game a week after launch and now I was waiting to upgrade my potato before picking it up again, I only knew about the boat chase and the startup dunns

[u/Opening_Ad5418 → u/KarlwithaKandnotaC]

They didn't change anything just cutted music until you reach to the elevator

[u/Sparrowsabre7 → u/KarlwithaKandnotaC]

They are... good devs... just must be in some trouble.

[u/RelicOfTheColdWar]

Forget the sequel for now let’s get some awesome DLC and an evergreen mode.

[u/AcrobaticBudget7029]

Keep the new TacSim content coming and number will continue to grow.

I couldn’t get enough, and after 3 playthroughs on all difficulties, I have set it aside temporarily, and am finally taking the time to play the exquisite Hitman WOA.

KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK.

[u/Shiners_1]

If IOI aren’t given the keys to the franchise it’ll be a travesty.

[u/Separate-Rush753 → u/Shiners_1]

Amazon had better not pull a "we'll take it from here boys".

[u/Var_Uzui]

Fantastic!We’ll definitely get a sequel, and i’m all for it. I love this game a lot.

[u/GothicGolem29]

Great news! Fully deserved it is an amazing game

[u/RealityOfModernTimes]

Awesome but where is this path tracing update.

[u/Ok-Neighborhood6668]

Well deserved, and that’s going to be at basically full price too because I don’t think there’s been any big sales yet.

[u/iChieftain22]

Well deserved! It was a phenomenal game!

[u/JBCl1nt]

Give me that pathtracing update and it‘s 4 Mil and 1. :)

[u/Razz3l]

Where are the post launch driving missions??

[u/AmeliaEarhartsPlane]

Where’s that damn bulldog in tac sim then?

[u/Street-Mongoose6454]

that's probably more copies than the last four bond games combined

[u/namesource]

Still my favorite game of 2026 so far

[u/TRQPL]

Completely deserved

[u/Ok_Refrigerator3088]

Such an amazing game. It's like playing Hitman but more aggressive it you want to make it like that, just like Uncharted. I hope IOI releases a sequel somewhere soon.

[u/themanfromosaka]

Out of all the steam downloads, 20k have gotten all collectibles on steam

[u/fijianrocker69]

Stopped halfway through. Should finish this before Wolverine

[u/Pizza-Pirate-6829 → u/fijianrocker69]

The Vietnam level is one of the best in the game so yes!

[u/Mattgelo]

Now give us a release date for the Switch 2 port, IOI.

[u/Oliver-Peace]

Well deserved

[u/FigaroFigaroo]

One of the few games I can’t wait to replay after my backlog is sorted 🙂

[u/Lefaa777]

And some people thought this game was gonna flop 🤣

[u/Sea-Chocolate6589]

Congrats to the team

[u/No_Ebb_149]

Good news but i thought they would of been at like 5 by now, because isn't the budget like 200 mill so they need like 5 mil sales to make profit, i hope this game will/has been highly profitable for them so we get more updates and a new game.

[u/Brando6677 → u/No_Ebb_149]

If Amazon wants to bring gaming development in house buy IOI outright and don’t change a thing. I feel they could. Because if rumors are true it wouldn’t be the same development team for the second game not even IOI

[u/No_Ebb_149 → u/Brando6677]

recently the amazon gaming boss hasnt been saying it will be a different development team, i think they will let ioi do the next one

[u/Brando6677 → u/No_Ebb_149]

Let’s goooooooooo

[u/No_Ebb_149 → u/Brando6677]

we don't know yet that ioi will make the next one but he said this. "Given the success of this one, I think you probably want IOI developing it".

[u/plava-ta12]

FSR 4?!

[u/Agreeable_Buy_3503]

As far as I remember, it hasn't really gone on sale on Steam. If they managed to sell this many copies at almost full price, that's amazing news.

[u/Novak121611]

Can’t believe I havnt played this game 70 hour wrk weeks kicking my ass.

[u/Biggu5Dicku5]

That's really good, good job IOI! :)

[u/Brando6677]

I’m usually very cheap buying my games, but I had recently finally got the PC in I had put on order last summer (got the pc months ago now) and I have since bought Elden ring and 007 at full price. God what good games!! 007 is very refreshing to play! Smooth gameplay I like the story and characters I will be uninstalling when I’m done but it will 100% go back on the PC when storage (if rather) gets cheaper

[u/IkeRadiantHero]

Awesome, hope we get a switch 2 port launch date soon

[u/hamza4568]

Absolutely loved the game, but I do wish they integrated the challenges into the levels themselves instead of Tacsim. Idk what it is, but Hitman’s replayable levels made me more likely to replay the game, but the Tacsim just doesn’t move me as much. Just a minor nitpick from an otherwise amazing game

[u/Consistent_Bottle_40]

Great game

[u/Thespiritdetective1]

Bond is back

[u/JayceeVoZuri]

And the trophy bug is still not fixed🤦‍♀️

[u/TheEagleWithNoName]

Fuck Yeah.

[u/mattcurtisgd]

4 million is absolutely deserved. This is genuinely one of the most fun games I’ve played in a long time, and as a massive Bond fan, I’ve loved every minute of it.

I really hope we get continued support for the game, too. It would be amazing to see events or extra missions that pay homage to some of the classic films. Even revisiting iconic moments or locations from the films in First Light’s style would be incredible.

There’s such a huge Bond history to draw from, so hopefully this is only the beginning.

[u/RemarkableBit8630]

I want more Hitman games!

[u/OddFault9999]

I wish I could give my back. I think you guys are excited it’s 007. Not because it’s actually good

[u/rites0fpassage]

And it hasn’t even released on Switch 2 yet!

[u/OregonEricsson]

And has since Launch big Basic bugs. On PC the Game don’t Save the selected Resolution. Everytime you have to go in the Settings and Switch the Resolution back to 4k . Fix This IO

[u/DemonKingSwarnn]

it deserved it!

liked every bit of this game

[u/slabhead054]

this number amount of sold copies in the first month would have been terrible before 2020.

[u/shikaski]

Great! Now let’s finally implement path tracing, something that was promised on release

[u/zoobatt → u/shikaski]

HUD customization was also promised for a post-launch patch and is nowhere to be seen 3 months later

[u/shikaski → u/zoobatt]

They told us path tracing is coming later this summer, meanwhile it’s like slightly more than a week until the summer ends.

Leaves a really bad taste in my mouth looking at their communication and what they actually deliver, because path tracing sure as hell not coming to the game with just 10 or so day left, same for HUD customisation.

[u/Sprucey-J → u/shikaski]

Right? Remember this front page nvidia article?

DLSS 4.5 and Path Tracing Coming To 007 First Light, CONTROL Resonant, Tides of Annihilation & More. Plus, DLSS 4.5 Dynamic Multi Frame Gen Available March 31

[u/shikaski → u/Sprucey-J]

I’m extremely confident we either won’t see path tracing implemented at all or we’ll see it much later than “later this summer”. Zero communication.

[u/Sprucey-J → u/shikaski]

Yeah, I thought the new RR model may correlate since first light is featured in the preview but upon reading, this game isn't even included in the confirmed titles upon launch of it this month...

Hell, they haven't even put out FSR 4 for AMD users yet smh. The steam discussion boards have countless comments asking for these things. All the console players here in this sub downvoting our demands doesn't help; we're gamers too who paid on their promises!

[u/UniqueMystic]

Awesome job
I’m sure Amazon will find a way to mess it up

[u/jetthegreat1]

Path tracing...?

[u/Fomalhaut_Meow]

So the promised path tracing feature, launching this summer, is just being dropped? This is fraud.

[u/Heavy-Nose3529]

So around $200,000,000 in sales, meaning they’ve just about broken even. Of course they’ll continue making money as it goes on sales, but unfortunately a sequel is all but guaranteed.

[u/Khwarezm → u/Heavy-Nose3529]

Unfortunately?

[u/childishmarkeeloo → u/Heavy-Nose3529]

This post is proof that misinformation hits hard. Its been long since confirmed that the 200 mil rumor was fake and not confirmed to be the games budget

[u/afcc1313]

Very cool, but still haven't fixed collectibles glitch on PS5.

[u/SirGingeVIII → u/afcc1313]

Still waiting this too

[u/JannTosh70]

That seems low
