007 First Light

Unlock Details

Survive the assassination attempt at Bond’s house. When you return home, you’ll find a suicide note waiting in your room that Bond definitely did not write. After reading it, 2 intruders will attack inside the house. Defeat both of them to reveal a third attacker positioned outside with a sniper rifle. Climb outside and chase the sniper down, using the large crane during the pursuit. Continue through the sequence until the chase is complete. The trophy will unlock automatically.

Tip

The fight inside the house is fairly direct, so save your attention for the chase afterward. Once the sniper is revealed, keep moving and follow the route the game gives you. Finding your own suicide note is a pretty strong sign that someone had a very specific evening planned for you.

Escape the ambush in the bin lorry. During the escape, Bond eventually gets into a huge garbage truck and you’ll take control of it while trying to reach Greenway. For most of the section, you can hold R2 and keep pushing forward. Enemies will try to stop you along the way, but if they get close, ram them off the road. Doing so will usually destroy their vehicles and get them out of the chase. Keep driving until you reach Greenway. The ending cutscene will play and the trophy will unlock.

Tip

Do not overthink the driving. Keep your speed up and use the size of the truck to bully anything that gets too close. It may not be an Aston Martin, but apparently even a garbage truck can be Bond-approved if the situation is desperate enough.

Unlock Details

Infiltrate Nicholas Webb’s penthouse. After progressing through the penthouse section with Greenway, Isola will appear and split the two of you up. You’ll then be left to continue toward Webb’s penthouse alone. The stairs you need are directly ahead. Raise them, head up, and enter the penthouse. The trophy will unlock once you reach the area.

Tip

This one is completely story-related, so there is nothing special you need to do. Just follow the objective and keep moving.

Save Theresa Lorca and survive the resort attack. After placing Q Trackers on 3 targets around the resort, the mission will eventually move into nighttime. You’ll be told that Theresa Lorca is in danger, so head to her suite. When you arrive, the area is already full of armed enemies and Theresa is taken away. Enter the building and either sneak or fight your way through the different floors. Your goal is to rescue both people inside and then keep pushing through the resort. Eventually, you’ll reach a small building where you fight the other Murto twin. Unlike the earlier Murto fight, this one is a straight one-on-one fistfight. Grabs and throws are extremely effective here. Use them repeatedly to keep Murto stunned and stop him from getting much offense going. Once you deal enough damage, the fight will end. Escape the building before it explodes, then finish the following cutscene to unlock the trophy.

Tip

Spam grabs and throws during the Murto fight. Keeping him staggered makes the battle much easier than trying to trade punches normally. Bond rules: if one evil twin was not enough, there is always room in the budget for another.

Unlock Details

Defeat Damien Webb in the final boss fight and defend MI6. This fight is built around moving between cover while avoiding turret fire. Wait for openings between bursts, then move from cover to cover until you can reach one of Webb’s turrets. You can also use distractions to make the movement safer. Once you reach a turret, hack it and turn it against him. Keep repeating this process, using cover whenever the turret fire starts back up. The route through the arena is fairly straightforward, so the main thing is simply not getting greedy with your movement. Once Webb’s health bar is fully depleted, a long ending cutscene will play. When the cutscene finishes, the game will be complete and the trophy will unlock.

Tip

Stay patient and move only when you have a clear opening. The fight is much easier when you treat it like a cover puzzle instead of trying to sprint through everything. Final boss rule number one: if the villain brings turrets, make them regret bringing turrets.

Unlock Details

Complete your MI6 recruit training in Malta. After the opening mission, you’ll move into a longer training sequence that teaches driving, shooting, hand-to-hand combat, and the other skills expected from a future 00 agent. There are 2 main playable training sections, and both revolve around stealing a flag from an enemy base. The first section is fairly straightforward and mostly serves as practice. The second is more difficult and gives you much more freedom in how you approach it. You can sneak your way through, fight your way through, or mix both depending on what works best. Reach the top of the tower, grab the flag, and continue through the remaining cutscenes. The trophy will unlock once the training sequence is complete.

Tip

Use the second training section to experiment with stealth and combat. It is a good place to get comfortable with the systems before the real missions start asking you to look cool while everything goes wrong.

Unlock Details

Complete the Slovakia hotel mission and survive the explosion. During this mission, you’ll spend most of your time following a suspicious blonde man as he repeatedly changes disguises and stays just ahead of you. The mission eventually ends in a much tougher fistfight against him in a wine cellar. His heavy attacks and grabs can deal a lot of damage, so do not stay in his face for too long. Use the wine bottles around the cellar to stun him and create openings for attacks. After dealing enough damage, his twin brother joins the fight and you’ll have to deal with both at once. This is the dangerous part. Use grabs and throws to create space, separate them whenever possible, and focus your damage on one brother at a time. If both of them get too close, back off and run until you can split them up again. Once one is knocked out, the fight becomes much easier since you can focus completely on the remaining brother. If your health gets low, create distance and stall until it regenerates. Finish the fight and continue through the mission to unlock the trophy.

Tip

Wine bottles are extremely useful for stunning the brothers and giving yourself room to breathe. Use the environment instead of trying to trade punches with both of them.

Unlock Details

Complete the opening mission and survive the helicopter crash sequence. This first mission acts as the game’s main tutorial, so it is very linear while you learn the basic controls, combat, movement, and other core mechanics. Near the end, the mission opens up and gives you a little more freedom in how you approach the area. Keep progressing until James is eventually taken hostage, then blow up the base and escape. The trophy unlocks automatically when the mission is complete.

Tip

There is nothing missable here, so just focus on learning how the game feels. Bond has enough problems after surviving a helicopter crash without you worrying about trophies five minutes in.

Unlock Details

Escape Webb’s penthouse by helicopter. Near the end of the penthouse mission, a timer will begin and you’ll only have a few minutes to fight your way out. The cleanest route is to push down the left side and get to the second-floor office as quickly as possible. Keep moving through the enemies instead of getting stuck fighting everyone in the area. After you progress far enough, a window will be blown open. Jump through toward the helipad, reach the helicopter, and get inside. Once you fly away and the ending cutscene finishes, the trophy will unlock.

Tip

Prioritize movement over clearing every enemy. The goal is to reach the helicopter before the timer runs out, not to personally eliminate the entire building. Very Bond: arrive in style, cause absolute chaos, leave by helicopter.

Unlock Details

Find 009’s body aboard his boat. After the auction, you’ll need to fight or sneak your way through a large section of the shipyard until you reach 009’s boat. Once aboard, start watching for traps. At first, these are simple tripwires that you can step around or duck under. As you move deeper into the boat, the traps become laser tripmines instead. When you reach the second deck, turn on the hoses in the area to fill it with steam. The steam makes the laser beams visible, which makes finding a safe path through much easier. Work your way through the laser traps and enter 009’s quarters. Inside, you’ll find his body and complete a small story-related puzzle. Leave the room afterward and the ending cutscene will play. The trophy unlocks once the sequence is complete.

Tip

Use the steam on the second deck before trying to move through the laser tripmines. Guessing where invisible lasers are is a very fast way to turn “Nobody lives forever” into a personal challenge.

Unlock Details

Complete your first real assignment at the nightclub. Your main job here is gathering information and working your way through the club until you are told to reach the upper floor. There are 2 ways to get upstairs: You can impersonate someone and use their upstairs access stamp. Or you can climb the lighting rig behind the DJ booth and reach the upper level that way. Once upstairs, follow your target, hack him when prompted, and dispose of him. After that, fight your way through the final brawl to finish the mission and unlock the trophy.

Tip

Either route upstairs works, so use whichever fits how you want to play. If you are enjoying stealth, go for the impersonation route. If you would rather take the more direct approach, climb the rig and keep moving. A nightclub infiltration, social engineering, hacking, and a fistfight. Bond has officially clocked in.

Unlock Details

Complete the Slovakia plane sequence and survive the free-fall escape. Right after the explosion in Slovakia, you’ll chase down one of the blonde twins responsible. This leads into the game’s first major gunfight as you fight through enemies while trying to reach a cargo plane. Most enemies go down in just a few shots, and useful objects in the environment will be highlighted for you. If things get messy, use cover, create distance, and pick enemies off instead of trying to rush everything at once. Eventually you’ll make it onto the plane. Once inside, you can tilt the aircraft during combat. Use this to your advantage by sending enemies sliding toward open doors or crushing them with loose cargo. After reaching the cockpit, James jumps from the plane and the mission turns into a free-fall sequence. Control your descent until several enemies with parachutes fall past you. Catch up to them and knock them out, then continue the sequence until you safely parachute down. The trophy unlocks after the following cutscene.

Tip

Abuse the plane-tilting mechanic during the onboard fight. Sending enemies flying out of the aircraft is much easier than trying to win every gunfight normally. Bond jumping from a plane without a parachute because he plans to borrow someone else’s on the way down is exactly the level of confidence we came here for.

Unlock Details

Leave MI6 and become a rogue agent. After returning to London, James becomes frustrated with MI6 and decides to walk away from the organization. This section is mostly story and dialogue. Walk around, speak with the people you want to say goodbye to, then make your way toward the front door. Once you leave and the long cutscene finishes, the trophy will unlock.

Tip

There is nothing missable here. Just follow the story and enjoy the moment. Nothing says career development quite like quitting MI6 and immediately making your life much more complicated.

Unlock Details

Catch Isola after the Antarctic research facility sequence. Once the infiltration is over, Isola steals the data you need and escapes by boat. Jump into your own boat and chase her down while dealing with the enemies trying to stop both of you. Keep the accelerator held down and stay on her route. Whenever an enemy boat moves in front of you, shoot it and keep pushing forward. The chase is fairly straightforward as long as you maintain speed and do not get distracted by every enemy on the water. Reach the end of the sequence to catch Isola and unlock the trophy.

Tip

Prioritize staying on Isola over fighting everything. Shoot the boats that directly block your path, but otherwise keep the throttle down and keep moving. Bond in Antarctica, in a boat chase, chasing stolen intelligence. At this point, subtlety has officially left the building.

Unlock Details

Survive the desert ambush. After fighting through the desert, you’ll eventually end up pinned down behind a car with Greenway. Enemies will keep advancing on your position, but this section is designed around your limited ammunition. Use up the ammo in your main weapon and pistol, then continue fighting with Greenway’s weapons when they become available. Once all of the available weapons are emptied, the sequence will progress into a cutscene. After Bond and Greenway are rescued, the trophy will unlock and the level will end.

Tip

Don’t worry about trying to conserve every last bullet. The encounter is built around running through the available ammunition and surviving long enough for the scene to progress. Sometimes the most Bond-like strategy is simply firing everything you own until the plot arrives.

Unlock Details

Win the auction in Aleph. When you first arrive, you’ll be denied entry because you do not have enough money to participate. Your goal is to earn $100,000 through the black market before returning to the auction. There are several ways to make money, and you can discover opportunities by speaking with people and eavesdropping on conversations. Some of the best options are: Win the fighting ring: Take on and defeat 3 sets of opponents. Gadgets can make these fights much easier, so do not feel obligated to fight fair. You are a spy, not a referee. Hack the crypto wallet: Listen for a conversation mentioning a woman’s crypto wallet, then hack it when the opportunity appears. Sell counterfeit art: Steal a burner phone and use it to arrange the sale of counterfeit artwork to a buyer. Once you have at least $100,000, return to the auction and follow Greenway inside. When the bidding begins, it does not matter which bids you choose. The scene will always end with Bond winning the auction. The trophy unlocks once the auction is complete.

Tip

The fighting ring, crypto wallet, and counterfeit art routes are worth doing because they let you experience more of the level while also building your money quickly.

Warning

You need $100,000 before you can properly enter the auction, so explore the area and complete enough money-making opportunities before trying to move on.

Unlock Details

Defeat Damien Webb in the quarry. This fight works similarly to the earlier Murto boss encounter because you cannot damage Webb directly at first. Instead, you need to use the environment to stun him. Around the quarry are lights that can be overloaded and hacked. Stand near one of the lights and wait for Webb to approach. Once he gets close enough, hack the light to blind him. Immediately move to another light and repeat the process. You need to successfully blind him 3 times. After the third hit, the fight will move into its final sequence. Finish the encounter and the trophy will unlock after the cutscene.

Tip

Let Webb come to you. Waiting near each light is much easier than trying to force the fight somewhere awkward. Three flashes later and apparently that is enough to settle international espionage.

Unlock Details

Defeat Murto during the basement boss fight. This fight works differently from the others because you cannot damage him directly. Instead, you need to use the environment and your Q Watch to trigger traps when he gets close. Once your resources are ready, let Murto approach and position yourself near something that can be activated with the Q Watch. If he is not moving where you want, run in front of him to get his attention and lure him toward the trap. Activate the trap when he is in range. You need to hit him with 3 traps in total. After the third successful hit, a cutscene will play and the trophy will unlock.

Tip

Do not waste time trying to fight Murto normally. The whole encounter is about baiting him into environmental traps. The safest approach is simple: make him angry, make him chase you, then introduce him to some very expensive Q Branch engineering.
