007 First Light Will Run at 60fps on PS5, IO Interactive Confirms

"007 First Light will run at 60fps on PS5 Pro, IO said in a post on X. The studio also shared 60fps gameplay footage from the title captured on PS5 Pro. The clip showed an intense shootout sequence running at 60fps on the pro console. Footage from the same sequence appeared choppy when IO Interactive revealed 007 First Light gameplay last year."

"Additionally, the James Bond game will run at 60fps on base PS5, as well, in performance mode. The game will also support a 30fps quality mode on the console, IO confirmed in replies to the post. Performance on the Xbox Series X console will likely be in line with the base PS5, but it's unclear if the game will run at 60fps on the less powerful Xbox Series S."

"IO has not yet confirmed other graphical features on consoles like ray-tracing, target resolution, and PSSR support on PS5 Pro. The studio will likely share details on the same in the coming days. Back in September 2025, fans raised concerns about poor framerate when IO Interactive revealed 007 First Light gameplay. It seems the developer has since worked to better optimise the game on consoles."

"007 First Light is now inching closer to release. The action-adventure title will launch on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series S/X on May 27. The game, however, has been delayed on the Nintendo Switch 2 to later this summer."

007 First Light will target 60fps on PS5 and PS5 Pro. On base PS5, performance mode prioritizes framerate, while quality mode prioritizes image quality. On PS5 Pro, the game will also run at 60fps, and 60fps gameplay footage was shared showing a shootout sequence. The game will support a 30fps quality mode on base PS5. Xbox Series X performance is expected to match base PS5, while Xbox Series S support for 60fps remains unclear. IO has not confirmed additional console graphics features such as ray tracing, target resolution, or PS5 Pro upscaling support. The game launches May 27 on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series S/X, with a later release planned for Nintendo Switch 2.
