Derek’s love of games came at an early age when his parents first brought home the Nintendo Entertainment System. From then on, countless nights were spent hunting ducks, stomping turtles, exploring far off planets, and combing through dungeons with a trusty sword and shield. Originally growing up exclusively with Nintendo products, Derek’s perspective grew to include other platforms ranging from Sony, to Microsoft, the PC, and more. As his views and opinions grew, so did the desire to connect with other players and video game fans. In 2011, his writing adventure began on his personal blog, eventually joining up with the GameRant crew in 2015. He currently covers everything from features and guides, to the latest breaking video game news.
At Summer Game Fest, IO Interactive revealed the first year of content planned for 007 First Light, which brings back Lenny Kravitz’s character Bawma in a brand-new mission. It’s been an impressive few weeks for 007 First Light as the game not only racked up plenty of positive buzz from critics and fans, but it has apparently sold very well to help put the Bond franchise back on the map after a number of uneven releases.
Joining Summer Game Fest, IO Interactive was on hand to reveal its post-launch plans for 007 First Light, which includes a wealth of content for players. In addition to new features like New Game+ and a dedicated Photo Mode, IO confirmed the first post-launch mission coming to the game, which sees the return of Lenny Kravitz’s Bawma in Mauritania. The leader of the pirate nation requests the help of MI6, leading James Bond back into the lion’s den to help take care of a sensitive matter.
