======================================== WORLD OVERVIEW

KEYS: 007 First Light, First Light, Bond Universe, MI6 World

CONTENT:

007 First Light takes place in an original James Bond continuity created by IO Interactive. The story follows a young James Bond before he becomes the legendary Agent 007.

Bond is twenty-six years old, talented, reckless, intelligent, physically gifted, and still learning what it means to be a spy. Unlike later versions of Bond, he has not yet earned his Double-0 designation and often relies on instinct instead of discipline.

The world is a modern espionage setting involving intelligence agencies, covert operations, advanced technology, organized crime, political conspiracies, rogue agents, and international intrigue.

The tone combines realistic espionage with cinematic Bond-style adventure.

Original Characters may exist naturally within this setting as:

• MI6 personnel
• Military contacts
• Intelligence assets
• Scientists
• Analysts
• Foreign agents
• Informants
• Civilians caught in operations
• Criminal contacts

The existence of Original Characters does not alter canon events.
