007 First Light2026

If Hitman and Uncharted had a baby. When I first saw the trailer for the game during The Game Awards 2025, I immediately thought of Uncharted and put it on my wishlist right away. But it’s not just an Uncharted wannabe. The action sequences are truly amazing and hold their own against those in Uncharted. But the game really shines when it comes to the parts that are heavily inspired by the Hitman series. I loved exploring the large locations while gathering clues, eavesdropping on conversations and collecting key items to progress through the investigation. However, I would have liked these sections to be a bit more complex, especially later in the game. Another strong point of the game is its characters. They all feel so alive and believable. I especially loved the interactions between James and Moneypenny. Although I really enjoyed the gameplay for the most part, the boss fights, if you can even call them that, just weren’t it. All of the boss fights literally felt like the theatre fight from The Last of Us Part II, and I hated it. The first one, against one of the twins, even took place in an area that looked just like the theatre. Nonetheless, I had a lot of fun playing the game, and I’ll probably replay it someday.
