007 First Light had incredibly high expectations as the marriage of traditional action-adventure gameplay and IO Interactive’s bread-and-butter Hitman gameplay. It’s safe to say now that it exceeded those expectations, particularly in terms of how satisfying 007 First Light’s Batman: Arkham-inspired melee combat is.
The game has a decent bit of replayability, too, depending on how willing players are to unlock collectibles throughout the campaign or grind challenges in 007 First Light’s TacSim endgame. Now, though, players suddenly have a lot more content to tackle.
Per Twitter/X, IO has shared a brief trailer for its newly released DLC, dubbed Extended Operations. This DLC was teased for a while without actually divulging what it would include, but it seems to have fulfilled some of what was depicted in 007 First Light’s Year 1 roadmap, as well as what fans have wanted from the game ever since it initially launched in May:
It’s terrific to have two brand-new missions now available, especially with “Valhalla Protocol” featuring the return of 007 First Light’s Aston Martin Valhalla. That said, New Game Plus and a harder difficulty to run through it with may be what most fans are thrilled about....
