With the free Extended Operations DLC, we added New Game+, Photo Mode, the "00" difficulty and the Valhalla Protocol to 007 First Light. Since the update went live, your reports and feedback have helped us find a few issues that came along with it.
This hotfix deals with some of them. It includes a crash fix, TacSim leaderboard disconnections, an outfit that wouldn't unlock, and a handful of visual and audio glitches. We wanted to get these fixes to you quickly so you can get back to your missions.
Thank you to everyone who has played and shared feedback with us.

Dear 007 First Light community,
We’ve seen your reports on performance following the 007 First Light Path Tracing update and your questions about the PC specs we disclosed. Although 007 First Light is a detailed and graphically demanding game when running with path tracing, we’re confident that players should be able to have a good experience on supported cards when using the right mix of settings.
Because of this demanding workload, 007 First Light offers the full stack of NVIDIA DLSS features to help you find the right settings and balance between image quality and performance.
In addition to last week’s hotfix addressing some GPU hangs, we’re deploying another hotfix today, which contains further improvements to visuals and performance, as well as the user experience of enabling path tracing.
Today’s hotfix includes an option to enable recommended default settings to smooth out the experience, but if you want to go ahead and do it manually we are issuing clearer guidance on configuring your settings to best enjoy path tracing on supported RTX cards.
RECOMMENDED SETTINGS
Make sure your game and graphics drivers are up to date, then use these settings as a starting point:
Options -> Graphics -> \ Restore to defaults
(Depending on your preferences and display, toggle Options -> Graphics -> VSync -> Off)
Select the Path Tracing mode that is recommended for your card:
Medium for RTX 5070 and RTX 5080
High for RTX 5090
Set fullscreen resolution to the value recommended for your card when using path tracing:
1080p on RTX 5070
1440p on RTX 5080
Up to 4K on RTX 5090
Resolution scaling -> NVIDIA DLSS
DLSS super resolution -> Auto (DLSS Auto - mode selects automatically the best upscaling ratio for your selected fullscreen resolution)
Enable DLSS Multi Frame Generation
Multi Frame Generation starts at 2X (one generated frame) up to 6X (5 generated frames), depending on your preferences
Or if you prefer, you can enable Dynamic Multi Frame Generation which will dynamically adjust the multiplier to maintain a consistent FPS.
PERFORMANCE EXPECTATIONS
With the recommended settings, you should expect around 60fps on RTX 5070 at 1080p resolution and around 60 fps on RTX 5080 at 1440p resolution, depending on the mission and checkpoint.
When adding 2x DLSS Frame Generation and with DLSS Super Resolution on the Auto setting, you should be able to play consistently above 60fps across the game.
5090 cards should yield even better results and can achieve frame rates of 200+ FPS when running with 6x DLSS Frame Generation values. Additionally, Dynamic Multi Frame Generation will dynamically adjust the multiplier to maintain a consistent FPS.
PATH TRACING RECOMMENDATIONS
007 First Light currently offers both Medium and High quality settings. The High setting can produce more detailed images, thanks to using higher-quality shading and levels of detail in reflections, as well as a higher number of bounces. Because this improved accuracy is very resource-intensive, our current recommendation for the most balanced experience is to use the Medium setting unless using an RTX 5090 card.
Thank you for your passion and interest in high-end real-time rendering technology.
We look forward to your continued feedback as we bring further improvements and optimizations to path tracing in future updates to 007 First Light.

Dear 007 First Light community,
Even though we just issued a Hotfix and are currently working on our first Patch, coming to you soon, we wanted to quickly address an issue which we fixed just after deploying Game Update 1.0.2, regarding TacSim Challenge progression, and wanted to ship it as soon as possible.
As we continue to make further improvements, please follow our social media channels to stay up to date on all things 007 First Light.

“Operations” Checkpoint Loading Crash
Fixed a crash that could occur when loading the "Operations" checkpoint in Chapter 02 “A Night Out”.
GPU Rendering Issue Crash
Fixed a frequent GPU crash caused by rendering & pipeline issues.
Texture Rendering Crash
Fixed a crash related to texture loading errors occurring on PC.
Crowd Animation Bug
Fixed an issue where crowd animation was not resolved when restarting between checkpoints containing crowds (e.g. the Nightclub in Chapter 02 “A Night Out”).
Steam Achievements Sync Error
Fixed an issue, where certain Steam Achievements would not trigger despite game progression and met conditions. Booting the game in online mode might be required for the game to validate Achievement progression.
Gameplay
Emperor Suite Rooftop Hard Lock
Fixed an issue where players were able to fall off the roof of the Emperor Suite in Chapter 08 “Time to Die”, blocking further progress in the mission.
Airfield Cinematic Skip Blocker
Fixed a hard blocker, where skipping the Airfield cinematic in Chapter 03 “All the Time in the World” at the last second could cause Bond to load out of world, preventing further progression.
Airplane Chase — Vehicle Stuck in Helicopter
Fixed an issue in Chapter 03 “All the Time in the World”, where the player's vehicle could get stuck between the helicopter's propellers during the Airplane Chase sequence, causing a mission failure.
Post-Auction Ledge Issue
Fixed an issue that could cause Bond to get stuck after the Auction in Chapter 03 “All the Time in the World”.
Android Opportunity Blocker
Fixed an issue in Chapter 09 “Wave of the Future” where destroying the spare Android before it was deployed in the Robotics area would block the shooting range Opportunity, with no way for the player to recover.
Security Office Save/Load Blocker
Fixed an issue in Chapter 09 “Wave of the Future” where leaving and reloading the game after being escorted to the Security Office could prevent the guard from progressing, leaving Bond stuck.
Counter leading to Displacement
Fixed an issue in Chapter 08 “Time to Die” where a counterattack against \ could cause Bond and \ to slide along the corridor or float into the air.
Clipping After Item Throw
Fixed an issue in Chapter 08 “Time to Die”, where hitting \ with a thrown item could cause him to clip through the environment, particularly near the rock where the item spawns.
Explosive Pipes & Missile Pen
Fixed an issue in Chapter 10 “For England”, where the red explosive pipes during the first stage of the boss encounter would not explode when shot with the Missile Pen.
Malta Training – Combat-Camera Too Close
Fixed an issue in Chapter 01 “The Needle’s Eye” where the close-combat camera in "Into a Deep End" would stay too close and not pull back properly. Restarting the checkpoint previously resolved it temporarily.
Floating NPC in the Aleph Market Hub
Fixed an issue in Chapter 04 “The Past never Dies”, where an NPC in the Market Hub got stuck performing a walking animation while suspended in air and clipping with his market stall.
NPC
Fixed an issue in Chapter 08 “Time to Die”, where a hostile NPC near the checkpoint would end up walking in place and be stuck in front of the door leading into the next cutscene.
NPC Distracted Alert Sound Spam
Fixed an issue where the NPC distracted UI sound effect could repeatedly trigger rapid succession, particularly when a bluffed NPC became distracted - causing the icon and sound to alternate rapidly.
TACTICAL SIMULATION
Infinite Loading Icon When Pausing
Fixed an issue where the loading icon would loop infinitely when pausing the game while in TacSim, both in MI6 and during missions.
Flash Mine Size Upgrade
Fixed an issue where equipping the Size Upgrade for Flash Mines and then restarting a mission would cause Flash Mines to stop functioning.
