IO Interactive Responds to “007 Frames” Memes
Uneven performance, noticeable in the September showcase of the spy action‑thriller *007 First Light*, led to memes about “007 frames.” For eight months the Danish studio remained silent, but now it has decided to clarify the situation.
What’s New
- Play on PS5 Pro
IO Interactive staged a gameplay demo of *First Light* for the PS5 Pro. The developers stated that in the final version the game will run stably at 60 frames per second (fps) specifically on this model.
- Text from Developers
“In September they talked about 007 frames… We’re happy to show *First Light* running at 60 fps on PS5 Pro,” reads the official statement accompanying the premiere.
- Video Preview
A two‑minute clip shows an episode with intense firefights and explosions at an airfield. It demonstrates how the game maintains smoothness even in the most tense moments—i.e., without frame‑rate drops.
Technical Details
- Two Performance Modes
On the base PS5 model, players will have two options:
*Quality* (30 fps) and *Performance* (60 fps).
- Release Date and Pricing
The game will go on sale on May 27. It will be available for PC (Steam, Epic Games Store), PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and Nintendo Switch 2. Prices start at $70.
- System Requirements
Last week the developers published updated minimum and recommended specs for all platforms.
Thus, IO Interactive officially confirms that *007 First Light* now runs stably on PS5 Pro at 60 fps, eliminating the issues that sparked the “007 frames” memes.
