A security flaw in the Indonesian Game Rating System (IGRS) has leaked endgame footage from IO Interactive's upcoming James Bond game, 007: First Light, online.
IGRS assigns age ratings to games for sale in Indonesia. Developers submit relevant content, including footage, for rating approval. The flaw over the weekend exposed clips from First Light and several other titles.
According to VGC, the breach also affects Bandai Namco's Echoes of Aincrad and thousands of game developers' emails.
First Light depicts a young, brash Bond eager to prove himself. Originally slated for March, IO Interactive delayed it to May in late December. The game launches May 27 on PC, Xbox Series X/S, and PS5, with a later Nintendo Switch 2 release.
