007 First Light Game Update 1.0.6 Patch Notes (26th June 2026)
IO Interactive's 1.0.6 update tackles GPU stability and a nasty crash that could lock you out of the 'For England' mission.
Update 1.0.6 landed today focusing on the kind of behind-the-scenes work that doesn't make headlines but absolutely matters: GPU stability and crash fixes. If you've been hitting out-of-memory errors or random crashes, this is the patch you've been waiting for. That's the sort of progression-blocking bug that turns a fun moment into a frustrating restart, so getting it squashed matters. IO also addressed an issue where integrated GPUs weren't being selected properly on machines with both integrated and dedicated graphics, which was locking some players out entirely. HDR settings resetting on each launch is another welcome fix for players who'd customized their display.
Performance improvements across GPU handling should reduce the frequency of those memory-related crashes that have plagued some sessions. Check the known issues page if you're still hitting trouble after updating.
