007 First Light Guide: How to Find All 36 Playing Cards

If you're chasing the Casino Royale achievement, you'll need to recover every playing card scattered across the camp.

IO Interactive scattered these collectibles everywhere. The deck features unconventional suits like Acorns, Bells, Shields, and Roses. If you missed a handful during your initial run, you don't have to replay the entire campaign. The Chapter Select menu lets you drop directly into specific checkpoints. The game auto-saves the exact moment you pick up a card, meaning you can grab the collectible and immediately quit to the main menu to save yourself hours of unnecessary backtracking.

The Laser Strap Requirement

Fixing your gadget loadout is mandatory before jumping around the timeline to clean up your missing cards.

Once you hit Chapter 9 and access the Q-Lab, you must equip the Laser Strap. Several cards hidden throughout Chapters 10 and 11 are locked behind heavy metal panels, padlocks, and bolted vent covers. Loading into those specific checkpoints without the laser equipped physically locks you out of reaching the collectibles. You'll be forced to quit out, re-equip the strap, and sit through the loading screens a second time just to grab a single card.
