Since it was announced five years ago that IO Interactive would be making a James Bond game, it felt like a natural fit for the studio known for Hitman, a series known for having you visit glamorous locations around the world in a sharp suit, and very much with a licence to kill.
But an assassin and a spy are very different occupations, and on closer reflection, I'm not sure if the slow sandbox nature of Agent 47's most recent iterations necessarily translates to the kind of blockbuster action you might expect for the iconic British agent. But I shouldn't have worried because my first look at 007 First Light at Gamescom completely blew me away.
