Watch Live Sept. 3: Sony’s 30-Minute State of Play Dives Into 007 First Light — Young Bond Gameplay Revealed

Sony’s next State of Play will be all about 007 First Light: a 30-minute gameplay deep dive airing on September 3 at 2 p.m. EDT / 11 a.m. PDT. You can watch the show live on PlayStation’s official Twitch and YouTube channels.
Where to watch
The State of Play presentation goes live on September 3 and will stream on PlayStation’s official channels. For Twitch, watch directly on PlayStation’s Twitch. For YouTube, check PlayStation’s channel on PlayStation’s YouTube.
What the deep dive will show
According to the PlayStation blog, the presentation will feature gameplay from the first mission that young James Bond — still an MI6 recruit — takes part in. The segment is set to demonstrate action that ranges, as PlayStation puts it, “from high-speed card chases to on-foot stealth sequences and shootouts.”
In the announcement trailer, IO Interactive focused on setting mood and introducing characters, rather than long gameplay clips. Therefore, this deep dive should give a clearer look at actual mission structure and mechanics.
