IO Interactive Refutes $200M Bond Budget as 007 First Light Surpasses 3 Million Sales
TL;DR Summary
IO Interactive pushes back on the claim that 007: First Light cost $200 million to develop, saying the figure covers bonuses and marketing rather than the production budget; the game has sold over 3 million and is tracking well above internal forecasts, with a Switch 2 edition due this summer and discussions of a potential sequel with Amazon MGM, likely at lower costs than the first game.
