In true IO Interactive fashion, 007 First Light arrives with several challenges that you can complete to unlock a new outfit, or just reach that 100% completionist rate that many Hitman players might be used to. Despite 007 First Light being a little less sandboxy than WoA, the truth is that there are many optional tasks to pursue, and some of them will require you to go through a level several times. Without further ado, here’s a list of every challenge in 007 First Light.

As you can see, there are several challenges in 007 First Light, each one with varied objectives and difficulty. While some of them are easy to tackle, as some can be completed by just playing the story, others will require you to be a bit more crafty and perform some specific actions during your second run. Thankfully, you can jump straight into each chapter after completing the story, so that makes things a bit easier.
