007 First Light Producer Addresses Pressure of Following GoldenEye’s Legacy

James Bond has appeared in many novels, movies, TV shows, and video games, creating a huge amount of content for fans. While most people know Bond through the films and books, he’s also been featured in numerous video game adaptations. Though not all Bond games have been great, GoldenEye is still considered the best by many longtime fans and gamers. Now almost 30 years old, no other Bond game has quite reached the same level of acclaim. Facing the legacy of GoldenEye is a challenge, and Theuns Smit, Licensing Producer for 007 First Light, recently spoke with TopMob about how the developer, IO Interactive, aimed to make their new game stand out from such a beloved classic.
