IO Interactive delays 007 First Light on Switch 2 for a third time, now set for March 2027

IO Interactive has delayed the Nintendo Switch 2 version of 007 First Light for a third time, moving its release to March 2027. Technical producer Cristina Vega told Korean outlet Inven Global that the team needed a breather and that marketing requests and other factors left no choice, with the aim of letting fans play the most polished version on Switch 2. She said the port is close to its final phase and that compromises on Switch 2, such as lower object detail at a distance, are limited to areas that are not crucial to players. The game sold 4 million copies within three months of its May release this year.
