The hotfix also fixes The Grey Standard outfit's unlock problem and several Photo Mode, visual, and audio glitches.
007 First Light Update 1.3.1 addresses a rare campaign crash, TacSim leaderboard disconnects, and an IOI Account issue that could block The Grey Standard outfit from unlocking. IO Interactive’s Update 1.3.1 notes also cover visual and audio glitches across campaign missions, Photo Mode, and TacSim.

Stability & Performance
- Fixed a rare crash that could occur in Chapter 03: ALL THE TIME IN THE WORLD when heading down the secret cellar stairs after completing the dining room puzzle.
IOI Account
- Fixed an issue where the “The Grey Standard” outfit could fail to unlock in-game after linking and logging into an IOI Account.
