The Nintendo Switch 2 version of 007 First Light is scheduled for Q3 / Summer 2026 (no specific month announced). It will be a separate platform release rather than launching alongside PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S on May 27, 2026. IO Interactive has confirmed the port but has not detailed the visual settings, framerate target, or exclusive features at the time of launch.

Whether the Switch 2 release will be physical, digital, or both
This article will be updated as IO Interactive confirms additional details. Players should not infer Switch 2 features from launch coverage of the PS5 and Xbox versions; the port will have its own technical profile.
IO Interactive has cited the Switch 2's improved horsepower as enabling a port that would not have been viable on the original Switch. The Switch 2's larger memory pool and improved GPU make a Glacier Engine build feasible at a quality level the studio considers acceptable. IO Interactive's modern Hitman trilogy did not ship on Nintendo platforms; 007 First Light's Switch 2 release is therefore IO Interactive's first first-party Nintendo release in many years.
