Rasmus Poulsen, art director for IO Interactive's 007: First Light, has clarified that the limited edition DualSense PS5 controller's straight-line design is intentional. The design draws from the game's UI and 'light' themes rather than a traditional gun barrel rifling. Poulsen shared these insights in recent interviews alongside hands-on previews of the game.
IO Interactive CEO Hakan Abrak stated that AAA single-player games can be developed for roughly half the budgets commonly reported in the industry. He highlighted the studio's efficient approach with its engine and talent to control costs on ambitious projects like 007 First Light. Abrak emphasized sustainable development over short-term recouping.
