Other games were also affected.
007: First Light is set to finally launch in late May, but James Bond’s next adventure is already facing a full-blown leak of late-story spoilers.
According to VGC, the unfortunate event, which also affected Bandai Namco’s RPG Echoes of Aincrad, was caused by a security flaw with the Indonesian Game Rating System. This exposed gameplay footage submitted privately for classification by the developers and publishers. Because of the leak, some of that footage has been spotted and shared online.
In the case of IO Interactive‘s 007 game, the spoilers are particularly bad, as the leaked footage includes an extended look at the ending of the game that reportedly runs for “over an hour”. If you were planning to play either of these games and dislike spoilers, you might want to set your social media filters accordingly.
The upcoming remake of Assassin’s Creed: Black Flag and Castlevania: Belmont’s Curse, which was only recently announced, were also part of the leak, but it seems no footage has surfaced online at the time of writing.
Circling back to 007: First Light, the action-adventure and stealth game locked a 27th May launch on PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X/S a while back, but players looking forward to its Switch 2 port will have to wait until this summer.
