Nintendo Switch 2 owners will have to wait a bit longer to check out IO Interactive’s stab at a James Bond game on the console. The Hitman developer has delayed that version of 007 First Light until later this summer. The game is still slated to hit PS5, Xbox Series X/S and PC on May 27, which itself is a delay from the previous March release date.

“We’re excited to see players discovering James Bond’s reimagined origin story,” IOI wrote on X. “[We] are looking forward to bringing you the best game experience possible across all platforms.”

Earlier this year, IOI suggested that PC players would need quite a beefy rig to meet the recommended specs for 007 First Light. A week later, the publisher updated the specs with more modest requirements and apologized after eagle-eyed observers spotted inconsistencies in the original version. IOI said the error was “due to an internal miscommunication leading to an older version of the specs to be shared.” Meanwhile, Sony has announced a limited-edition 007 First Light DualSense controller.

Developers and publishers have had difficulty in porting certain games to the Switch 2, as Kotaku notes. Gearbox Entertainment delayed — and ultimately shelved — a version of Borderlands 4 for the system. The long-awaited Switch 2 port of Elden Ring was delayed until sometime this year after the game had severe performance issues in a public demo at Gamescom 2025. Reports suggest the game is in better shape on Switch 2 now, but there’s no firm release date for that version as yet.
