TikTok star Khaby Lame can now add video game star to his already impressive resume.

On Monday (May 25), IO Interactive announced via X that Khaby had joined the cast of James Bond video game 007 First Light. Sharing the news alongside a hilarious clip, Bond can be seen asking Lame for directions to the Tranquility Cave, in front of a sign that clearly points out where he needs to go.

Khaby does his signature gesture, sending Bond off on his way.

The developer said it "worked closely" with Khaby, getting him scanned and collaborating on the design of his outfit.

The announcement comes two days before the release of 007 First Light. Those who pre-order can get the game a day early.

After "a few users got hold of the disc early," according to IO Interactive, the first 13 minutes of the game were shared on YouTube.

007 First Light serves as an origin story for the man who becomes Bond, centering around his younger self before earning 00 status. It will be released on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series S and Xbox Series X on Wednesday (May 27). A Nintendo Switch 2 release is slated for later this year.
