The recent delay of 007 First Light hasn’t come alone. The developers of the new James Bond game have taken the opportunity to clear up one of the biggest doubts for PC players: what hardware will be required to run the game smoothly when it finally hits the market.

Although the published information is still limited, we already have the official minimum and recommended requirements for the PC version, designed for Full HD gameplay. However, many questions remain unanswered regarding higher resolutions and advanced configurations.

Official 007 First Light PC Requirements

Minimum Requirements (1080p – 30 FPS)

• Operating System: Windows 10 / Windows 11 (64-bit)

• Processor: Intel Core i5-9500K or AMD Ryzen 5 3500

• RAM: 16 GB

• Graphics Card: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660, AMD Radeon RX 5700, or equivalent Intel

• Video Memory: 8 GB of VRAM

• Storage: 80 GB of available space

Recommended Requirements (1080p – 60 FPS)

• Operating System: Windows 10 / Windows 11 (64-bit)

• Processor: Intel Core i5-13500 or AMD Ryzen 5 7600

• RAM: 32 GB

• Graphics Card: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Ti, AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT, or equivalent Intel

• Video Memory: 12 GB of VRAM

• Storage: 80 GB of available space

The data makes it clear that 007 First Light aims high in terms of technical requirements, even for 1080p gameplay. The significant jump in RAM and GPU between the minimum and recommended requirements is particularly noteworthy, suggesting a strong emphasis on advanced graphics effects.

For now, the required hardware for 1440p or 4K gameplay has not been detailed, nor has it been specified whether these configurations will utilize technologies like DLSS or equivalents to improve performance. Additionally, specific graphics settings associated with each profile have not been outlined.

With the release scheduled for May 2026, it’s possible that a more comprehensive table with configurations for higher resolutions and more ambitious frame rates will be published in the coming months. Until then, these requirements serve as a clear reference point for those already considering upgrading their PC before stepping into the shoes of 007.
