007 First Light Co-op — Covert Ops Mode and Two-Player Missions
Updated 2026-06-02
007 First Light co-op is delivered through the Covert Ops mode — a separate campaign of five two-player missions designed specifically for cooperative play. Unlike the main campaign, Covert Ops missions require coordination: one player handles infiltration and gadget support while the other provides overwatch and combat backup. This guide covers everything you need to know about 007 First Light co-op.
Covert Ops mission list
| Mission | Players | Role Split | Est. Time |
|---|---|---|---|
| Joint Recon | 2 | Infiltrator + overwatch sniper | 30 min |
| Double Agent | 2 | Distraction + objective runner | 35 min |
| Convoy Intercept | 2 | Driver + gunner | 20 min |
| The Exchange | 2 | Negotiator + extraction support | 40 min |
| Final Protocol | 2 | Coordinated breach + escape | 45 min |
Matchmaking and progression
007 First Light co-op supports both matchmaking and private lobbies. The game pairs you with a partner based on mission completion count rather than skill rating, so experienced players can help newcomers through difficult sections. Both players earn full XP and mission rewards regardless of which role they play. Covert Ops progress is tracked separately from the main campaign, with its own set of achievements and unlockable cosmetics.
Co-op mechanics
Co-op introduces revive mechanics — downed players crawl to cover and can be revived by their partner within 30 seconds. Sync shots let both players mark and eliminate two targets simultaneously. Gadgets can be shared: the overwatch player can remotely trigger the infiltrator's explosive pen. Voice chat is integrated, and a ping system provides contextual callouts for players without microphones.
