007 First Light System Requirements — PC Specs for Every Setting
Updated 2026-06-02
007 First Light runs on IO Interactive's Glacier engine, which scales well across a range of PC hardware. The official system requirements cover three tiers, from 1080p minimum to 4K ultra. This guide breaks down the 007 First Light system requirements by resolution and target frame rate, with real-world performance notes from launch builds.
System requirements by tier
| Spec | Minimum (1080p/30) | Recommended (1440p/60) | Ultra (4K/60) |
|---|---|---|---|
| CPU | Intel i5-8400 / AMD Ryzen 5 2600 | Intel i7-10700 / AMD Ryzen 7 3700X | Intel i7-12700 / AMD Ryzen 7 5800X |
| GPU | NVIDIA RTX 2060 / AMD RX 5600 XT | NVIDIA RTX 3070 / AMD RX 6800 | NVIDIA RTX 4080 / AMD RX 7900 XT |
| RAM | 16 GB | 16 GB | 32 GB |
| Storage | 85 GB SSD | 85 GB NVMe SSD | 85 GB NVMe SSD |
| OS | Windows 10 64-bit | Windows 11 64-bit | Windows 11 64-bit |
Performance notes
The 007 First Light system requirements reflect testing at launch. The recommended tier delivers a steady 60 FPS at 1440p with high settings and ray tracing disabled. The ultra tier achieves 60 FPS at native 4K with full ray tracing enabled, though demanding scenes like the Swiss Alps avalanche may dip to 52-55 FPS. Players with GPUs between the recommended and ultra tiers should target 1440p with ray tracing on medium for the best visual-to-performance balance.
Storage and additional notes
An SSD is mandatory — the game will not install on HDD. NVMe drives deliver the fastest load times (under 8 seconds from menu to gameplay). The day-one patch adds approximately 6 GB. The game also supports DLSS 3 (NVIDIA) and FSR 3 (AMD) for upscaling. Both technologies work well at all tiers and can significantly boost frame rates on mid-range GPUs without noticeable quality loss.
FAQ
- Can I run 007 First Light on a laptop?
- Yes, if your laptop has a dedicated GPU meeting the minimum requirements (RTX 2060 or equivalent). Integrated graphics are not supported.
- Does 007 First Light require an internet connection for single-player?
- No. The single-player campaign can be played fully offline after installation. Multiplayer and leaderboards require an active connection.
