Lana Del Rey has been tapped to provide the theme song for the upcoming video game "007 First Light," a new project from IO Interactive and Amazon MGM Studios. The game marks a fresh take on the iconic spy franchise, and it will feature actor Patrick Gibson as the voice and likeness of James Bond.

Gibson, known for his roles in "The OA" and "Shadow and Bone," steps into the role of the legendary British agent for this interactive experience. The game is set to explore Bond's early career, offering players a chance to shape his path as a newly minted 00 agent. Details on the gameplay remain scarce, but IO Interactive has hinted at a narrative-driven approach that blends stealth, action, and espionage.

Del Rey's involvement adds a layer of musical prestige to the project. Her signature melancholic and cinematic style is expected to complement the game's atmosphere, drawing comparisons to classic Bond film themes. The collaboration between the developer, the studio, and the singer signals a significant investment in making "007 First Light" a standout entry in the Bond gaming legacy. A release date has not yet been announced.
