IO Interactive and Amazon MGM Studios have confirmed that 007 First Light has sold more than 4 million copies since its launch on May 27, 2026.
The sales milestone arrives roughly three months after release and underlines the commercial strength of IO Interactive following its long-running work on the Hitman franchise.
The game, developed by IO Interactive in partnership with Amazon MGM Studios, launched on May 27, 2026.
According to the announcement from the studio and its publishing partners, global sales have now exceeded the 4 million mark, a figure that the developer described as a significant achievement for the team.
On platform plans, IO Interactive has reiterated that a Nintendo Switch 2 version of 007 First Light remains in the pipeline.
The developer previously referenced a summer release window but has since updated that timeline.
IO Interactive stated the Switch 2 edition will arrive "later in 2026," effectively moving the target beyond the originally suggested summer window.
In clear journalistic terms: IO Interactive has postponed the previously announced summer window and now expects the Nintendo Switch 2 edition to be released at some point later in 2026.
IO Interactive and Amazon MGM Studios have not released a specific eShop release date or precise timing beyond the 'later in 2026' guidance.
The developer's public messaging emphasizes that the project is still on track for the Switch 2 platform but that an exact month or day will be confirmed at a later time.
This milestone adds to IO Interactive's track record as a studio known for polished, agent-driven action titles.
The Hitman developer's move into the James Bond universe with 007 First Light represents a notable expansion of its IP partnerships and demonstrates consistent commercial performance across major releases.
