007 First Light Trophy List: All 38 Trophies and Hidden Story Spoilers
IO Interactive's take on James Bond ships with 38 trophies on PlayStation 5 and 37 achievements on Xbox Series X|S and Steam, the difference being the Platinum that PlayStation reserves for full completion. The split breaks down to 1 Platinum, 3 Gold, 14 Silver, and 20 Bronze, with half the list tied to automatic story beats and the rest split between collectibles, combat flourishes, and the TacSim sandbox mode.
🎯
Quick answer: There are 38 trophies total on PS5 (37 on Xbox/Steam). 18 are hidden story trophies that unlock automatically through the campaign. The other 20 cover five collectible types, nine combat techniques, four TacSim objectives, the legacy items set, and the Platinum.

Trophy count and rarity breakdown
The list leans heavily Bronze, with most combat and early story moments sitting at the lowest tier. Silver covers mid-campaign milestones and collectible sets, while Gold is reserved for full collectible completion, the toughest TacSim tier, and a late-game defense sequence.
| Tier | Count | Coverage |
|---|---|---|
| Platinum | 1 | PS5 only — full completion |
| Gold | 3 | All collectibles, TacSim tier 3, MI6 defense |
| Silver | 14 | Collectible sets, key story beats, TacSim progression |
| Bronze | 20 | Combat techniques, early/mid story missions |
Non-hidden trophies
These cover collectibles, combat techniques, and TacSim work. The combat trophies push you to use environmental kills, gadgets, and trick shots rather than gunning everything down, which fits the Bond fantasy. Five collectible categories run through the campaign: postcards, MI6 files, mementos, playing cards, and legacy items.

Hidden story trophies (spoilers ahead)
Stop here if you want the campaign to stay clean. The 18 hidden trophies unlock automatically as you push through main missions, so none can be missed on a standard playthrough. They roughly map to the mission order and span a globe-trotting plot that touches Malta, Slovakia, an MI6 defense set piece, and a final showdown with antagonist Damien Webb.

What TacSim adds to the list
TacSim is the simulator-style sandbox shown across pre-launch gameplay footage, and it carries four dedicated trophies. The progression goes from completing a single Operation (What if…?) to clearing an Escalation (A Change of pace), pushing your clearance up to level 3 (Keep moving forward), and finally beating tier 3 of an Escalation (The readiness is all). The last one is the most likely sticking point on the full list, since the rest of the trophies are checklist work rather than skill gates.

How to verify completion
The Platinum trigger is straightforward. Once every other trophy unlocks, "The name's Bond. James Bond" pops automatically. The collectible Gold, "A collector's habit," only fires after you have cleared all five individual sets, so confirm each of the Silver collectible trophies has already unlocked before assuming a missed pickup. For combat trophies, the actions are specific rather than cumulative, meaning a single successful execution of each move is enough.
🎮
No difficulty-related trophies are tied to the list, and there are no multiplayer or co-op requirements. The campaign clocks in around 20 hours, which is the bulk of the run before any collectible cleanup.

Bond references baked into the names
Almost every trophy name is a nod to the wider 007 catalog. Direct film titles do most of the heavy lifting (Skyfall, You Only Live Twice, No Time to Die, The World Is Not Enough, For Your Eyes Only, Casino Royale), but the deeper cuts pull from the novels and the games. Trigger Mortis and Solo are Bond novels, Nobody Lives for Ever is the Gardner novel referenced by "Nobody lives forever," and "Agent under fire" tips its hat to the 2001 EA shooter. "Positively shocking" lifts a Goldfinger line, "The writing is on the wall" plays on the Spectre theme song, and "You know my name" points back to Chris Cornell's Casino Royale track. It's a list designed for fans to read line by line, not just check off.
