007 GoldenEye

Players control James Bond from a first-person perspective through mission-based stages with multiple objectives such as rescuing hostages, disabling equipment, collecting keycards, and eliminating enemies. Movement, aiming, reloading, and melee attacks are the core controls, while many stages reward careful infiltration over direct firefights. Weapons, armor, and mission items are found throughout the levels, and progression depends on completing objectives rather than simply reaching an exit. The game also includes up to four-player split-screen multiplayer with several competitive modes.

James Bond

The player character and British secret agent 007, sent to stop the GoldenEye threat.

Take your time and clear rooms methodically instead of rushing forward. Reload before opening doors or turning corners, since ambushes are common. Use silence and distance when possible, especially on missions with many guards. If a stage has several objectives, memorize their locations first so you can route efficiently on repeat attempts.

All Guns

A cheat that unlocks all weapons once the required cheat conditions are met.

Invincibility

Unlockable cheat granting invulnerability after meeting the game’s hidden requirements.

DK Mode

An unlockable novelty mode that changes character proportions after completing the needed conditions.

Tips and tricks

• Listen for guards before crossing open areas.
• Use the silenced pistol whenever a mission rewards stealth.
• If you are surrounded, back up and use corners to break enemy lines of sight.
