007 First Light will feature a James Bond at 26, it will take us on adventures around the globe in a new third-person action-adventure that blends action and stealth. First Light will feature an original origin story about how Bond earns the number 007.
Grammy Award Winner Lenny Kravitz will portray The Pirate King Bawma, a leader of a black-market arms dealer network. This will be Kravitz's debut performance in a video game. Bawma will feature Kravitz's likeness and voice. It'll be up to 007 to figure out whether he's friend or foe.
The New trailer features Bawma saying, "I am sometimes asked, 'Bawma, how is it that you hear every whisper in every corner of Aleph?' And I answer, I built Aleph with my will, my blood, my whole self. This city is an extension of my being. My body. Today it became infected." (IOI)
"The Bond franchise has such an incredible legacy in video games. so to step into it with a brand-new character like Bawma is amazing. He's magnetic and unpredictable, there's danger in him, but also heart and purpose. He's not just a man with power; he is a man who has to fight for every inch of it. Bringing that energy into 007's world felt incredible." - Lenny Kravitz. (IOI)
How Bawma is connected to the rogue agent Bond chases in the first reveal trailer is unknown. The new trailer at the Game Awards shows Bawma throwing Bond and his mentor, John Greenway in a bit of a pickle, by suspending them above an alligator pit.
007 First Light will be releasing on March 27, 2026.
