A new rumor suggests that players looking forward to playing 007 First Light on the Nintendo Switch 2 may face a longer wait. Information circulating online indicates that the Switch 2 version of the game has been delayed indefinitely.

The report comes from the leaker known as “Graczdari,” who has a history of accurately predicting industry moves, such as the PlayStation ports of Starfield and Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024, as well as the physical edition of Oblivion Remastered.

This time, the leaker shared an image allegedly from an internal distribution system, where the title’s status for the Nintendo platform is listed as “delayed.” Neither IO Interactive nor Nintendo has officially confirmed this change, and the studio has not yet commented on the matter.

Other platforms remain on track

Despite the uncertainty surrounding the Switch 2 version, the release for all other platforms appears to be proceeding as planned. 007 First Light is still scheduled to launch on May 27, 2026, for:

• PC (via Steam)
• PlayStation 5
• Xbox Series S|X

About the game

Developed by IO Interactive, 007 First Light is described as a high-stakes espionage action-adventure game. The story follows the journey of James Bond as a skilled but occasionally reckless young recruit within the MI6 training program.
