  • Dossier #84: 007 First Light first look
    Sep 13 2025

    Kicking off renewed efforts to deliver a more regular Bond & Bond listening experience, Alex and James share their impressions of the recent deep dive into upcoming video game 007 First Light.

    If you haven't already, make sure you watch the whole presentation before listening to this episode.

    We discuss our takeaways after being given a glimpse at two missions, as well as the range of options young Bond has to tackle any given situation. We compare how First Light is shaping up to past Bond games, plus the developer's storied Hitman franchise, and drill down into which elements of this title make it a more Bondian experience than your standard action game.

    Finally, we drool over the special editions we're inevitably going to splash our cash on.

    We'd love to hear your thoughts on 007 First Light, so please email us via bondandbeyondpod@gmail.com. You can find us on Facebook (just search 'Bond & Beyond'), Twitter (@bondbeyondpod) and all our episodes are at bondbeyondpod.tumblr.com.

  • Dossier #82: 007 First Light reveal
    Jun 11 2025

    Alex and James are back to discuss the next 007 outing - not a film, but a video game.

    Hitman developer IO Interactive has finally revealed 007 First Light, an action stealth adventure game that reimagines the story of how James Bond became a Double-O agent. We discuss how the studio's success with Hitman and the agent fantasy it portrays sets them up perfectly for this game, as well as our hopes and initial reactions to the trailer.
