‘We have a great relationship with IO Interactive,’ Amazon says, but it won’t commit to bringing the studio back for future Bond games

Jeff Gattis, the general manager of Amazon Gaming, indicated a potential shift in the development of future James Bond games, suggesting that sequels might be produced by MGM and possibly Amazon Game Studios, which could mean IO Interactive may step back from its Bond responsibilities. An Amazon spokesperson clarified that the company is not entirely moving away from IO Interactive, though future plans remain unclear. Amazon's gaming division has faced challenges, including significant layoffs and project cancellations. Gattis expressed a belief in the convergence of television and video games, suggesting that major intellectual properties will need to integrate video game narratives. He did not confirm IO Interactive's involvement in future Bond games, stating that decisions regarding the next Bond game are still being considered. IO Interactive has not publicly responded to these developments.

007 First Light sequels will be ‘done by MGM and, theoretically, by Amazon Game Studios,’ Amazon exec says

Jeff Gattis, general manager of Amazon Gaming, discussed the positive trajectory of the James Bond video game franchise following the success of 007 First Light. Amazon acquired the James Bond film rights in 2025, which has complicated game development due to a pre-existing agreement that allowed IO Interactive to self-publish First Light. Future sequels are expected to be developed in collaboration with MGM and possibly under Amazon Game Studios. Amazon is also developing a Tomb Raider television series for Prime Video and has various projects that will connect with Prime Video intellectual properties. In 2025, Amazon shifted its strategy away from large-scale game development, focusing instead on delivering exceptional gaming experiences. The company plans to publish upcoming Tomb Raider titles and may explore cost-effective mobile games powered by AI.
