Lana Del Rey Joins The Legacy Of Iconic Bond Theme Artists

With this new title song, Lana Del Rey now joins James Bond’s long-awaited return to gaming, redefining the classic genre and creating her own musical interpretation for the game’s reimagined origin story.

A Reimagined James Bond Origin Story

007 First Light presents a bold new take with a reimagined origin story, following a 26 year-old James Bond at the very beginning of his journey in the world of espionage.

Developed by IO Interactive, the award-winning studio behind the globally acclaimed HITMAN franchise, the game promises a cinematic, character-driven experience that redefines the classic spy genre for a new generation of players.

Rather than adapting existing films or novels, 007 First Light creates an entirely new narrative within the Bond universe.

007 First Light is scheduled to launch on May 27, 2026 on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC, and Summer 2026 on Nintendo Switch 2.
