It goes without saying that 007 First Light wouldn’t be a true James Bond game without all the awesome Q-Branch gadgets.
To complete your missions as Bond, you’ll need to make use of gadgets provided by Q alongside the weapons at your disposal. However, you won’t immediately get access to all the gadgets or loadout slots at the start — instead, they’ll have to be unlocked.
Here’s how to get all the gadgets and loadout slots in 007 First Light.
How to Unlock All Gadgets in 007 First Light
There are seven core gadgets in 007 First Light. However, you don’t get access to all of them straightaway. Instead, certain gadgets are locked behind missions.

The first gadgets you receive are the Q-Lens and the Q-Watch, which you immediately get during the A New Home mission. They are permanently equipped on Bond, so you don’t need to worry about them taking up a slot. As they work hand-in-hand, they are often considered one gadget.
You also get your Dart Phone during the A New Home mission, after it’s handed to you by Q during your equipment training.
The next set of gadgets you will get are your Smoke Pod and the Shockwave Camera. These two become available during the All the Time in the World mission, which unlocks after you’ve completed the London nightclub level.
