We’re still waiting on the new Switch 2 release date for 007 First Light<\/a> after it was delayed<\/a> on the hybrid back in April, but that hasn’t stopped Bond from getting off to a flying start elsewhere.<\/p>\n

Developer and publisher IO Interactive has today shared the game’s first sales figures, revealing that First Light shifted a beefy 1.5 million<\/em> copies in its first 24 hours \u2014 talk about having the Midas Touch, eh?<\/p>\n

“Thank you for showing up to the launch of 007 First Light,” the accompanying message<\/a> from the studio reads, “for your overwhelming enthusiasm and for sharing your experience with the game”.<\/p>\n
