007 First Light - The Complete 100% Walkthrough

1. What "100%" Means in 007 First Light

007 First Light (IO Interactive, 2026) is an origin story: James Bond at 26, a Royal Navy aircrewman who survives a helicopter crash in Iceland and is pulled into MI6's revived 00 programme by M. John Greenway, a former 00 agent, trains him; Q, Moneypenny and Dr Selina Tan back him up at MI6; Sir Nicholas Webb, an AI pioneer, and his son Damien are the problem. It is built on IOI's Glacier engine, the same one behind the Hitman trilogy, and its bigger chapters play like Hitman sandboxes with Bond's gadgets, bluffs and freeflow fistfights layered on top.

Everything below lands on one 38-trophy list (37 achievements on Xbox and PC, which have no Platinum):

Tip. Nothing in this game is permanently missable. After the story, Chapter Select drops you into any chapter at any checkpoint, and every collectible saves the instant you pick it up. You can grab a missed item and quit straight back out.

Spoiler policy

Each chapter gets one line of setup, not a retelling. The story trophies are hidden in-game and their descriptions name late-game events, so 搂6 keeps them under their own heading at the end of the list. Collectible names and checkpoint names are reproduced as the game prints them, and a few of those hint at what happens.

2. How to Use This Guide

Chapter numbering. The game counts its story two ways. IOI's own patch notes number 11 story chapters, 00 to 10. Chapter Select splits those into 17 entries, adding six short MI6 interludes, and every collectible guide numbers by Chapter Select. This guide does the same: "Chapter 10" means the tenth Chapter Select entry. Each chapter's count strip gives its story chapter number too.

Every chapter below has:

  1. A count strip: collectibles by type, challenges, location and story chapter.
  2. A line of setup.
  3. A collectibles table in route order. The Checkpoint column is the Chapter Select checkpoint to load if you miss something, so a cleanup trip is one menu pick, not a replay.
  4. A challenges table, in the 9 chapters that have them.

Tick a row's box as you go. Progress is saved in your browser, per guide.

Tip. From Chapter 4 the Q-Watch highlights nearby collectibles in yellow (L1 on PlayStation, LB on Xbox). Pulse it in every room. Only items with the grey bookmark icon count: the game is full of readable photos, newspapers and text files that are not collectibles.

3. The Road to 100%

    CS --> PLAT(["PLATINUM: The name's Bond. James Bond"])
    CS -.-> CH["Optional full clear - 191 chapter challenges<br/>Online, checkpoint by checkpoint"]

One collecting playthrough, half an hour of TacSim, then Chapter Select for anything missed. The challenges sit off the trophy path.

Why this order?

  1. Collect on the first pass anyway. Chapter Select makes nothing missable, but a cleanup trip costs a load and a walk each time. The tables below are route-ordered so one careful run gets all 92.
  2. Keep the Laser Strap equipped from Chapter 9. Several items in Chapters 10, 11, 12 and 15 sit behind padlocks, glass or vent grates that only the Laser Strap opens. Chapter Select hands you a preset gadget loadout, which is how most people end up replaying to fix a missed Laser item.
  3. TacSim opens in two stages. Escalations unlock after Chapter 6 (A Night Out); Operations unlock only after the credits. Do the Escalation trophies whenever you like and leave the Operation for the end.
  4. Challenges contradict each other. Pacifist wants no takedowns, Assault wants dozens. Each challenge counts the moment its condition is met, even if you then fail or quit the run, so they are a checkpoint-replay job, not a first-playthrough job.

4. Mechanics Worth Knowing Before You Start

Warning. The collectible trophies were unreliable at launch. Patches 1.0.5 (June), 1.1.0 (July), 1.1.1 (August) and 1.3.0 (October) fixed collectible trophies that failed to pop, a PS5 "For your eyes only" stuck at 22/23, and a PS5 Platinum that sometimes would not unlock. On a patched game this should be behind you. If you are still cautious, back up your save to the cloud before picking up the last item of each type, so you can restore it and grab the item again if the trophy does not unlock.

5. The Master Checklist

Chapter Select order. Story is IOI's 00-10 story chapter numbering. Mauritania's second story chapter, Beyond the Grave, has no Chapter Select entry of its own: it is folded into Chapter 10.

11. Chapter 10 - The Past Never Dies

Collectibles: 12 (6 cards 路 2 Intel 路 2 mementos 路 1 postcard 路 1 legacy item) 路 Challenges: 24 路 Aleph, Mauritania 路 Story chapters 04-05

Bond and Greenway go undercover in Aleph, arms dealer Bawma's black-market town, where a drone is up for auction. The biggest collectible chapter, tied with Chapter 11. Chapter Select folds the story's Beyond the Grave chapter in here.

Warning. Two traps in the Black Market. First, three items need the Laser Strap (9 of Acorns, Mauritania Postcard, Ober of Acorns). If you arrive here through Chapter Select, check your loadout: the preset may not include it, and PowerPyx's fix is to replay from Chapter 9. Second, money. Pirate Grillz can only be bought once you hold the story's $100,000, but one guide and a player report say some money sources close once you reach that target. Do the Crypto Wallet thread (which passes the ATAC Device) and the side earners first, then cross $100,000 and buy the Grillz. Chapter Select fixes either mistake.

# Item Type Checkpoint Location

Challenges (24)

The market is one big money puzzle. Show Me the Money wants $140,000, more than the story's $100,000, and one guide warns that taking the story money too early closes some ways of earning. Work the market's side activities before your total reaches $100,000.

18. TacSim - The Online Trophies

TacSim is Dr Selina Tan's training-simulation mode, reached from the title screen under Tactical Simulations. Everything in it is online-only. It has its own progression: Clearance Level (XP rank) and Intel, a currency spent in the Intel Shop on outfits, weapons, skins, gadgets and gadget upgrades. None of that shop is needed for trophies.

Warning. Whether PS5 needs PlayStation Plus for TacSim is unconfirmed: players have reported both ways and no official source says. Online play itself is required. Early on, Keep moving forward sometimes popped late or at Level 4; update 1.3.0 fixed it unlocking unexpectedly after a disconnect.

After the credits, Chapter Select lists all 17 entries and lets you load any checkpoint inside them. Every Checkpoint cell in 搂7-搂16 is a direct pointer.

22. Accuracy & Sources

This walkthrough was written fresh for this site in October 2026, then cross-checked against IO Interactive's official patch notes (1.0.2 through 1.3.1), PowerPyx's collectible guide and trophy roadmap, Push Square's per-chapter walkthroughs, Exophase's PSN, Xbox and Steam lists, Steam's global achievement page (AppID 3768760), TrueTrophies, two PSNProfiles trophy guides (archived June-July 2026 copies), Wikipedia, VGC, Shacknews, games.gg, VGTimes, GMTreks, Gfinity and Beebom.

What is solid. The 38-trophy list (names, tiers, descriptions, hidden flags) matched across five independent sources apart from apostrophe styling. The 92-collectible total, and every one of the 92 items, matched item for item between PowerPyx and Push Square, and every type sums to its trophy's count. Each chapter's challenge list was counted against its stated total and all nine match, for 191.

Where sources disagreed, and what this guide did:

007 First Light is developed and published by IO Interactive. James Bond, 007 and related marks belong to their respective owners. This is an unofficial fan-made guide.
