007 First Light hasn't even been out a full two weeks and already DLC has been announced. As revealed at Summer Game Fest on Friday, the game will receive a story DLC mission starring pirate king Bawma, played by singer and actor Lenny Kravitz. Bawma featured in pre-release marketing and only appears in one level midway through the game.

He is the pirate king of Aleph, a haven for criminals (and a certain MI6 defector). In the upcoming DLC, players will travel to Aleph to aid Bawma, who requested Bond specifically. The teaser doesn't offer much more than that. The mission could have something to do with Bawma's sister Harmony; he's been searching for her for years, and MI6 knows her location.

007 First Light was released to critical acclaim and positioned itself as a game of the year contender straight away. "007 First Light is an incredibly shiny, well-polished game that truly lives up to its name." It's available on PlayStation, Windows PC, and Xbox Series X, and will come to Nintendo Switch 2 sometime later in the year.
