The “All the Time in the World” mission (Chapter 8) in 007 First Light features a locked laundry room door during your pursuit of the suspicious blond bellhop. Many players get stuck here, but finding the code naturally lets you knock out the Old School Hacking challenge at the same time. Let’s try How to Complete the Old School Hacking Challenge guide.
Here’s a clear, step-by-step guide presented in table format:
| Step | Action | Details & Tips |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Reach the Hotel Lobby Area | Progress through the mission until you need to access the laundry room to follow the bellhop. The laundry doors are locked with a keypad near the main lobby/service desk area. |
| 2 | Locate the Manager’s Office | From the main lobby, go behind the service desk into the staff-only hallway. Look for open double doors leading to another hallway. The Manager’s Office is in the southeast corner on the ground floor. |
| 3 | Enter the Manager’s Office Stealthily | – Distract or avoid the guard (use gadgets like Dart Phone or Laser Strap). – Sneak past the maids on the alternative route. – Optionally pickpocket the Staff Key from the guard. Close the door behind you once inside to avoid detection. |
| 4 | Find the Laundry Code (Complete Old School Hacking) | Walk to the main desk. Pick up and read the Security Note lying on top. The code is 1805. Simply reading this note completes the Old School Hacking challenge. |
| 5 | (Optional but Recommended) Open the Manager’s Safe | Under the desk, open the safe for the Wine Connoisseur challenge. The code is 1952 (from the wine bottle vintage in the display case – check the tasting note in the drawer). Grab the Cellar Key and collectible (“6 of Roses” card) while you’re there. |
| 6 | Exit and Use the Code | Sneak back out the way you came. Head to the laundry room door, enter 1805, and press E (or your interact button) to unlock it. This gives you access to the stealth section. |
Quick Tips for Success
- Stealth is key — This area has multiple challenges tied to not being spotted or taking out enemies. Take your time.
- Why find it yourself? Using the code directly skips the Old School Hacking challenge and the The Manager challenge (entering the office).
- No randomization — The laundry code is always 1805 for everyone.
