007 First Light's First DLC Out Now, Adds New Game Plus

007 First Light, the popular tactical shooter, recently released a new Extended Operations DLC for free, adding five new missions to its TacSim mode. Alongside the missions, players can now enjoy a New Game Plus mode, new outfits, and a long-awaited photo mode. Four of the new operations center around the Valhalla, a sports car that players could drive in the game's campaign, but only once.

The trailer showcases these new Valhalla missions, which appear to be driving trials where players use the car's weapons and gadgets to complete challenges on a timer. However, the Valhalla can't be used in other missions involving less exciting vehicles at least for now.

IO Interactive has also introduced a new 00 difficulty level, which is significantly more challenging than the Purist difficulty found in the original game. Enemies will react faster, some NPCs will change to more difficult variants, and combat will be more unforgiving with two-hit kills and a tighter parry window. The new DLC also includes improvements to weapon animations, and enemies will now be able to throw players off cliffs, a feature that was previously available to players in the base game but not to enemies.

With this first content-based DLC for 007 First Light, IO Interactive is showing its commitment to the game's success, which IGN recently rated a 9/10. The DLC is a welcome addition for fans of the game and provides additional content before James Bond embarks on any more official adventures. It is hoped that the game will eventually come to the Switch 2 console.
