The debut trailer for 007 First Light aired during Sony’s recent State of Play, and it finally unveiled IO Interactive’s take on James Bond.

However, while there was much to enjoy about the trailer, including a look at numerous characters and various gameplay clips, fans are left wondering — just who is playing the lead role in this origin story?

Well, it didn’t take long for some to work it out, or so they think.

There’s been no official confirmation of any performers for 007 First Light, but some claim to have recognised the character’s face and voice in the new trailer.

Looking around online, a number of people are convinced that Patrick Gibson is James Bond.

Here’s another comparison from X user GameRoll_:

There is certainly a resemblance between IO’s Bond and the Irish actor, so there’s every possibility this is right.

In any case, IO Interactive is set to show more of 007 First Light at its own showcase event, so perhaps we’ll learn the truth there.

Do you think Patrick Gibson plays the young agent? If not, who do you think portrays Bond in the upcoming game? Tell us in the comments section below.
