IO Interactive has announced that Lana Del Rey will sing the title song for its upcoming James Bond game, 007 First Light. The track, also called First Light and composed with David Arnold, is available now on streaming platforms. The game launches on May 27 across multiple platforms.
Developer IO Interactive revealed that Lana Del Rey has recorded the title song for 007 First Light, an origin story for James Bond. The song, titled First Light, was written and composed by Del Rey alongside David Arnold, who returns to the Bond franchise after scoring films like Die Another Day, The World Is Not Enough, and Casino Royale. A lyric video for the track is available, and the full title sequence will debut on the game's official channels on April 17 at 8 pm UK time. First Light is streaming now on major platforms. 007 First Light arrives on May 27 for PC, PS5, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox ROG Ally X, and Xbox ROG Ally. The Nintendo Switch 2 version is delayed until summer. IO Interactive CEO Hakan Abrak praised the collaboration, saying, “It's a joy to watch two extraordinary talents like Lana Del Rey and David Arnold combine forces, the result feels instantly 'Bond' while still bringing a fresh identity for 007 First Light. Bond's return to gaming is a landmark moment for us at IO Interactive, and having a title song of this quality makes it even more special.” David Arnold added, “The music of James Bond has always been a huge part of its identity. A title song has to tell us about the world we are about to enter into. It has to intrigue, excite, and beckon us in. This song joins a long line of genre defining songs... That's why I was so excited to work with Lana, an artist who brought elegance, atmosphere, and her totally unique character to this piece, which I hope will open the world of Bond to a whole new audience.”
