In a gaming world that never sleeps, IO Interactive's latest masterpiece, 007 First Light, has made an explosive debut, selling an astounding 1.5 million copies in just its first 24 hours. This record-breaking figure surpasses the sales of any Hitman game ever released by IO Interactive, and all this before the Nintendo Switch 2 version even hits the shelves this summer. The James Bond-themed adventure is not only the highest rated IOI game yet, boasting an impressive 87 on Metacritic, but also received a glowing 9/10 review from IGN. In a statement, IO Interactive celebrated this monumental achievement, citing "overwhelming global enthusiasm" for 007 First Light and acknowledging the game's broad appeal across all platforms. Rhys Elliott, head of market analysis at Alinea Analytics, estimated that the game sold approximately 500,000 copies on Steam alone, generating around $25 million in revenue on Valve’s platform.
