3. Story walkthrough
Goldeneye Reloaded has 4 different difficulties and you will need at least 2 playthroughs of the story: 1 on the lowest and 1 on the highest difficulty. I will give detailed informations on the levels when we go for the highest difficulty, since some objectives will be added and some corresponding achievements also exist.
STORY 1
We will start with the story mode. Set up a new game and set it on the lowest difficulty (should be called Operative). Thankfully there are no extra objectives added to this, so you basically have to concentrate on the objectives at hand and on the collectibles (you can see them on the seperate collectibles page). Also, make sure to kill every enemy you can by sneaking up from behind since this is also an achievement.
Upon starting the first level, we will be in Russia. After the first seconds of the video, your very first achievement will unlock.
Continue playing to unlock this secret achievement. (Secret)
The following is a video for this achievement if anyone should struggle with it. Credit goes to kloakatv
As the video shows, you will also unlock the Emblem hunter achievement for the first destroyed emblem.
Single Player: Find and destroy a Janus emblem.
Now continue through the level and finish it as fast as possible. Find all emblems and work towards silent subdues of the enemies (30 needed for the achievement) and the Master at Arms achievement as well in this level (seperate list in collectibles section). Upon reaching the helicopter and photographing it, you will have to make an escape. Instead of going right, go left on the street on top of the dam and run towards the beginning. You will see a guard tower with a burning vehicle in front of it. Get up to the top and you will find the RPG. Take it and kill an enemy with it and an achievement will unlock for you. Now, complete the level.

I also found a nice video showing you what to do. Credit goes to capsuledragon.
Now we should be in the level called "Facility". You will come to a section where there are bathroom stalls underneath you and a guard is doing his business. Slide down (button prompt) and complete the quick time event against the guard (messy death ^^). You'll get another achievement for performing this heroic deed.

This is the first level you can get the Invincible achievement: getting through without getting hit even once. We will do exactly that in this level. We will also combine this with another achievement for never getting any reinforcements called in. To perform this, we will have to get to the interrogation of the scientist without triggering any alarms. Upon reaching him, you will unlock the achievement.
Get to master engineering in 'Facility' without reinforcements getting called in.
I also found a quite good video for that. Credit goes to the fellows of Rooster Teeth (also showing the Royal Flush achievement)
Now get through normally, never trigger an alarm and collect all the emblems. Upon finishing the level, you get the achievement for making it through a level without taking any damage.
Single Player: Complete any mission without taking any damage.
Now, there is only 1 level left, which would be the Runway. This level isnt hard at all. Stick to cover, snipe enemies whenever you can, and shoot down the helicopters with the rocket batteries (there are 2, one for each chopper). Upon reaching the runway, you will finish the level with a cutscene.
We are now in Barcelona. This act only has 1 level: the Nightclub. Upon starting the level, you will have to search for someone with your cellphone. You can see a large dance floor with a throng of people there. Run onto the dancefloor and stand still for some time (your camera will shake if done correctly, showing that you dance). After some time, an achievement will unlock. I also found a nice video for that:
Continue playing to unlock this secret achievement. (Secret)
After the cutscene ends and the action finally starts (Zukovsky´s dead and a girl is fleeing), run back into his office and pick up the Wolfe .44 pistol. This is a one-shot-kill weapon and there is also an achievement for killing 40 enemies with it, so aim carefully. There are a total of 3 hidden in this level and each has 18 bullets. The second one can be found in the waterfall/bathroom stalls (second stall to the right upon entering) section and the third can be found after the kitchen through a secret corridor in a vent. I also found a video for that one. Credit goes to Rooster Teeth (also shows the Dance Commander achievement):
Get 40 kills with the Wolfe .44 in 'Nightclub'.
Now complete the level and finish Barcelona.
We are now in Dubai on the level Carrier. This level doesnt have any specific achievements on this difficulty, so simply play through it normally and continue on to the next level.
Now we find ourselves in Severnaya. This has 2 levels which are Outpost and Bunker. There is no specific achievement for outpost, but there is one for the Bunker. You have to make it through the level without any alarms being triggered and any reinforcements being called in. This is rather tough since the level is pretty cramped. However, practice makes perfection and I also found a video showing you exactly what to do. Credit goes to thewhitemages:
Get to the server room in 'Bunker' without reinforcements getting called in.
Now we are in St. Petersburg and here we have 4 levels, 2 with a few achievements. We will start with the Archives. Play through the level normally until you reach a large server room. Don't destroy any of them yet! Kill all enemies and get to the far left of the room. Climb up the boxes, enter via the shaft, and get inside the small locked up room. Now, make sure you have 2 MGs in your inventory and both are fully loaded. Now go on a rampage and destroy every server in a total of 40 seconds! This might take some practice. The best advice I can give is to know where they are standing. Also, note that as soon as they explode, they count as destroyed! I also found a video to clarify things. Credit goes to andreflash83:
Destroy all the servers in 'Archives' within 40 secs of the first being damaged.
Upon finishing the level, we quit out to the main menu and restart the level from the beginning, this time on Agent difficulty. Our target now is to finish the level under 15:10. You can do this, of course, on your second playthrough on Classic mode as well, but I would recommend going for the lowest difficulty possible to guarantee success. This is really easy and shouldn't prove any trouble (you DON'T have to go for any secondary objectives!!), however I found a video as well to make a more visual picture for it. Credit goes to davincentcode:
Complete ‘Archives’ in under 15:10 (Agent difficulty or higher).
Now we start the level Tank. Simply advance through the level and shoot every chopper that you can see. Upon destroying 15, another achievement unlocks for you.
Shoot down 15 helicopters in 'Tank'.
Continue through the levels normally from now on and finish St. Petersburg.
We are now in Nigeria, the last set of levels. This consists of 3 levels and there is only one in which there is an achievement (Jungle). In this level, you have to kill 20 enemies with hacked drone guns. This is straight forward and easy enough, so no need for further descriptions here. There are plenty of drones in this level and more than enough enemies.
Get 20 kills with hacked drone guns in 'Jungle'.
Finish the game and upon reaching the end you will have unlocked a few other achievements also, except for beating the game on Operative.
Complete all objectives for every mission on Operative difficulty.
Next, you will have all the emblem related achievements if you followed my collectibles guide.
Single Player: Find and destroy 20 Janus emblems.
Single Player: Find and destroy 50 Janus emblems.
Also, the Weapons Master will have unlocked if you followed the guide.
Single Player: Make a kill with every weapon.
Also, you will most certainly have gotten the achievement for silently subduing 30 enemies. If not, I recommend replaying a few of the first levels since those are full with unalarmed guards.
Single Player: Silently subdue 30 enemies.
Congratulations, we are now done with the first story playthrough!
STORY 2 (Classic)
I won't point out the main objectives because you obviously can only miss those if you die. Although you can do those levels on 007 as well, doing them on classic will prevent you from a seperate run-through. However, I will also cover the time limits and therefore I can tell you that you will need a few retries for some of them because the time limits are often quite hard. So with that said, we can start right away.
Russia (Arkhangelsk) - Level 1 Dam
- Erase evidence of you and Alec infiltrating the dam (2 security computers)
- Hack the console to get the helicopter flight plan (1 console)
Start the level normally, get up the guard tower undetected and kill off the enemies in the area. Take out the sniper and kill the approaching guards from the direction you came from (around 5 enemies). Grab ammo for the AK and sniper and the body armor inside the guard tower. Continue through the chase sequence with as little damage as possible (shoot enemies on turrets and pedestrians whenever you can!). After the crash, get down the elveator, open the door, and shoot first at the guy running to the left. He's going to trigger the alarm! Now run forward, shoot the lock on the door, hack the console (1/2), and upon leaving, grab the body armor to your right on the cardboard box. Stay as silent and stealthy as you can to avoid too much damage! If you have to go loud, make sure you make it efficient with shooting barrels and cars. Continue onwards to the chopper and use the lower section road after the harbor area. After the photographs, get down, kill the 2 guys, and destroy the truck before he unloads his cargo. Shoot the ammo box to your left for the sniper rifle and pick off the sniper in the tower. Get up the same tower, hack the console for the flightplan (1/1), and take the elevator down. Shoot through the open part in the window to your left with the door open and enter it to hack the last security file (2/2). Continue and finish the level with a neat little cutscene.
Level 2 Facility
- Take photographs for MI6 (3 photos)
- Receive documents from a scientist's computer
Shoot the guy in the toilet and stay as stealthy as you can. Don't pick up any body armor since we will get an achievement for doing a level without any body armor on classic. So that means triggering the alarm will most certainly result in a rather messy death!
Single Player: Complete any mission without collecting any body armor on 007 Classic difficulty.
Now after some time, you will come to a part where a guard is handling a vending machine. In the room to your left is the first photograph (1/3). Get downstairs and behind the stairs is a weapon locker with silenced weapons. Get up and use the shaft across to the next building. DON'T drop down in the first hole in the roof. Drop down the second one to get the documents of the scientists computer (1/1). Now continue through the level, force the code out of the scientist (don't forget to grab the sniper rifle in the locked box next to him), and rendezvous with 006. Clear the room and get through the door on the right side at the end of the room where he gives you sniper support. Get up and you will find the next photograph (2/2). Continue until you reach the white rooms (the decontamination area), take a left, then a right, and you should stand in front of a room filled with gas. Use the console to release it and enter it to get the last photo (3/3). Now continue on, trigger the alarm with your phone, and deactivate it again. Plant the explosives, detonate them at the cutscene, and finish the level!
Level 3 Airfield
- Destroy the heli
- Destroy the tracking systems
This level has an achievement for a certain time limit on 007 classic difficulty. There isn't much I can give in the form of tips. Just never stop, look for the shortest ways to reach certain areas, and always use the armored vests since otherwise, you will die a lot. The locations of the 3 body armors are:
- Below the first missile launcher, inside the building
- In a small room to your left after you ran past the guys with the rocket launchers (down the ramp after the starting area)
- Next to the second missile launcher
I also found a video to help you guys out on this one. Credit goes to thejaycee88:
Complete 'Airfield' in under 4:35 (007 Classic difficulty).
Upon finishing this level, you also get the achievement for mastering Russia on Classic with all of the objectives.
Complete all objectives in Arkhangelsk on 007 difficulty or higher.
Barcelona - Level 1 Night Club
- Obtain Zukhovsky's contact list
- Photograph evidence of Zukhovsky's arms deals
- Obtain the night clubs security footage
Upon starting the level, you need to find a certain undercover agent in the club. After the cutscene with Xenia (the girl offering you vodka), continue downstairs past the dance floor and at the end, you will see a woman in a dress talking to someone. Facial check her, follow her, and after Zukhovsky is dead, head to his office. Shoot down the picture to the right and get the contact lists off the safe (1/1). Continue through the club, get upstairs, go through the slow motion breach room and continue on towards the kitchen area. Enter the room to your left, shoot open the weapon case, and photograph the arms deal evidence (1/1). Now go through the kitchen in the large bar-like area (there are a lot of enemies!!) and clear it out. Get up the second set of stairs (enemies will come through a door) and get through that mentioned door. Shoot the vent and get all the way down until you reach and download the security footage (1/1). Now get to the next checkpoint and finish the level! You will get an achievement for that one.
Complete all objectives in Barcelona on 007 difficulty or higher.
Dubai - level 1 Carrier
- Defuse 3 Bomb charges
- Free 3 hostages
This level also has a timed achievement, however if you are more comfortable with 007 difficulty, you can actually switch later to that one since it only needs to be done on 007 or higher. You only need to accomplish the main objectives, so I'd recommend memorizing the best, fastest, and stealthiest way you can take and make a run for it. This isn't really hard, but still will need a few tries. You will get an achievement for being under the needed time and I also found a video to help you out. Credit goes to dkode3kay:
Complete 'Carrier' in under 11:00 (007 difficulty or higher).
After the guy talking to you gets shot (again Xenia, quite a bad girl isn't she?), clear the following room of enemies. Continue through the gate, hack the drone, exit through the gate, get through the metal detector, and board the carrier. Hack another drone gun and upon getting to the bridge, you will hear guys talking about some charges. The first one to defuse is in here (1/3). Get down the ladder and before getting down the next one, open the door to your left for your first hostage (1/3). Enter the machine room and on one of the middle consoles, there is the second charge (2/3). Now go to the last room on the right to find the second hostage (2/3). Get upstairs and on the left side of the pump is the last charge (3/3). Now use your mobile on the console and pump and after opening the gate, the middle door contains the last hostage (3/3). Get through the garage (lower the car, kill all enemies and go up) and place your mobile on the heli. Now escape the helicopter onslaught and finish the level for another achievement.
Complete all objectives in Dubai on 007 difficulty or higher.
Severnaya - Level 1 Outpost
- Find the Supply crates (6 pieces, you have to shoot open the locks to make them count!!)
- Find the black box of the crashed F17
Start the level and continue through until you reach the cutscene. Now turn right, shoot the padlock on the supply crate (1/6) and go across the bridge. Before you leave the area to the left, look left and you'll find another crate (2/6) and a bulletproof vest. Move onward through the burning debris until you hit a flipped truck. To the right of that truck is another crate (3/6). Continue and make it through the first firefight part. Upon reaching the second firefight, stick to the right and enter the not burned-down building (intact roof and staircase) and open the crate on the lower floor (4/6). Clear the area of any enemy resistance and run to the burning wreck. Underneath the right wing is the black box, so get it (1/1)! Go now to the left inside of a barracks close to a guard tower for the next crate (5/6). Make your way inside and past the sniping sequence and burning corridors. Once outside again, pick the silenced sniper up and get to the right where the last crate is (some fires burning there as well, 6/6). Now run to the checkpoint and finish the level.
Level 2 Bunker
- Gather intel from the bunker (5 pieces)
- Disarm the explosive devices (5 devices)
Upon starting the level, get downstairs and disarm the charge to your right (guard is standing there, 1/5). Now dispose of all the guards on this floor (as stealthily as possible, we don't want to trigger any alarms), get to the far end of the first room to the left, and get the first piece of intel (1/5). Inside the second room on the right wall is another charge (2/5). Now continue, go downstairs, and free Natalya (slow-mo entrance). Get outside the room and go to the left for another charge (3/5) and kill every guard in the next room. Continue on and to the right is a table with more intel on it (2/5, guard is beating electricity boxes). Now get through the elevator shaft, one floor down, and move onward to the main control room (there's a holo-image in the middle of it). Get a little to the left for another charge (4/5) and up the stairs to the left for another intel (3/5). Get to the holo-desk and look for an intel on any of the computers (4/5). Get down the stairs and follow the path to its end for the last charge (5/5). Continue, force the elevator open, and drop down. This is where stealth is over, so make sure you have a decent weapon! Use the emergency switch and defend yourself in this area until the door opens. Inside of the circular small room in the middle of the walkway is the last intel (5/5). Now make your way out of the bunker alive and sack another achievement.
Complete all objectives in Severnaya on 007 difficulty or higher.
St. Petersburg - level 1 Archives
- Recover the Interrogation footage
- Destroy all the servers
- Gather Intelligence for MI6 (3 pieces)
Flee the interrogation room, past the locked door, and head into the room with the switches and computers. Use your mobile on the running recording device to get the interrogation footage (1/1) and use any of the switches and get upstairs to the metal detector room. Get in a small room to the left for bulletproof armor and shoot the explosives to destroy the wall section to enter the next section without triggering any alarms. Continue through the bureaus until you reach the server room. Dispose of all the guards and destroy every single server in this room (don't forget the locked off area! 1/1). Now get up and inside one of the offices you can pull the shelf away. Enter through the shaft and gather the intel on the desk there (1/3). Continue until you reach the archives (slow-mo entrance). Kill off the special-ops you encounter until you reach the rather large room. Get to the left (crate with armor inside!) and use one of the computers to get another piece of intel (2/3). Hack the door upstairs, enter the large circular room, and defend yourself while the elevator makes its way (there is armor on the upper floor on one of the benches!). Get to the garage and raise the platform with the tank on it. Get to the right in the control room and use the holo-console to get the last intel in this level (3/3). Enter the tank and finish the level!
level 2 Tank
Just complete the level, no additional objectives here!
Level 3 - Train
Just complete the level, no additional objectives here!
Level 4 - Memorial
- Obtain Intel on Janus Technology (3 pieces)
- Record the incrypted transmission
Stay stealthy and keep at least one silenced weapon with a high firing rate with you. Go through the level normally until you get out of the sewers again. Wait for the guys to leave the car, shoot the camera, and climb up the roof. Dispose of the sniper and use his gun to clear the area. Enter through the single window (armor in locked crate), open the box marked "drone gun" and gather the intel (1/3). Now continue, hack the drone gun and enter the building. Get the armor, use the switch and use your mobile on the console nearby. Dispose of the guys breaching the door and get to the left after leaving through the same door. Use your phone on the boxes to the left and make sure you have a fast fire weapon with a silencer from now on (2/3). Make your way through the basement and enter the warehouse. In here, kill every guard possible WITHOUT getting detected! Scan the boxes in the middle for the last intel in here and continue to the next section to the right (3/3). Now kill everyone EXCEPT for the guy in the middle to the right (he's anyways listening to a transmission)! Get close to him and scan him with your mobile for the encrypted message (1/1). This is rather tricky, so make sure to not trigger any alarms here since otherwise the transmission will end immediately. Now continue through the level, meet 006 again and free yourself of the helicopter with the parachute to end the level and get another achievement
Complete all objectives in St. Petersburg on 007 difficulty or higher.
Nigeria - level 1 Jungle
- Disable the drone guns (9 drone guns)
- Destroy the ammunition caches (3 caches)
Get through the starting area, continue over the tree, slide down the slope and hack the first turret (1/9). Now get to the next area, head to the left to hack the next turret (2/9) and continue on that path to the left to hack the next turret as well (3/9). Get through the next area until you reach a checkpoint and get to the left for the next drone (4/9). Continue to the next area with the waterfalls, get to the left towards the waterfalls, and hack the console up on the ledge from below (5/9). Now get up the ledge, hack the next drone from behind (6/9), and get to the enemy camp. Kill off all the enemies, hack the drone there (7/9), shoot the lock on the door, and enter the new area. Kill the sniper and use his gun to dispose of some of the enemies and to the right of the sniper is the first weapons cache (1/3, be careful since you will alert all the enemies in the area when blowing it up!!). Take the ladder down to the right to hack the drone (8/9), get outside and take a left before the second truck to the right. Get inside that building, destroy the cache (2/3, armor in front of same house), and to the right of the gate is the last drone gun to hack (9/9). Get through the gate, continue through the heli chase sequence (first container on the right contains armor) until you destroy the 2 troop trucks. To the right is a building that has the last weapon cache in front of it (3/3). Now get on the bridge to shoot the heli down, fight off Xenia's attack (bye bye young lady!) and finish the level.
Levle 2 Solar
- Disable the perimeter defenses (2 power nodes)
This level also has a timed achievement. Again, the same as for the previous ones goes for this one. Since it will help a lot if you know where to expect the body armors, I will point out the positions here:
- In the starting area in the second room
- Upon getting outside the first time, it's near the weapon stashes
- Next to the mines you find outside
- After you've placed the charges directly opposite the elevator
- Upon going into open conflict (the very last area), it's in a small alcove to the right
- After crossing the small bridge you will encounter a lonesome guardsman covering behind a box. It's right next to that box.
I found another video to show you what you will have to do. Credit goes to xvxthexshadowxvx.
Complete ‘Solar’ in under 13:00 (007 Classic difficulty).
Start the level, hack the drone gun to the right and continue through the area by flooding away the drone guns blocking your way (take the low road). Continue up the stairs (small cutscene), grab the sniper and dispose of as many enemies as you can. Now continue (don't forget to activate the solar collectors) until you enter the generator room (body armor can be found here!). Dispose of all the enemies (sniper here as well) and activate the power switches above the consoles to the left and right of the generators for disabling the perimiter defenses (2/2). Activate the elevator and defend the area. Make your way past the generators and outside again and run to the exit to finish the level!
Level 3 Gradle
No additional objectives, just finish the level! Upon completing it you should've mastered the game and will get now a set of achievements. First for doing the levels on Classic:
Complete all objectives in Nigeria on 007 difficulty or higher.
Now the remaining difficulty achievements:
Complete all objectives for every mission on Agent difficulty.
Complete all objectives for every mission on 007 difficulty.
Complete all objectives for every mission on 007 Classic difficulty.
For those that should struggle i found a decent walkthrough on Youtube for all of the levels on classic mode. Credit goes to grizzlyeaglestudio.
MI6 Ops
There is a seperate gamemode called "MI6 Ops" which is somewhat similiar to the popular Call of Duty Special Ops. There are 2 ways you can earn the corresponding achievements and I will, of course, cover both ways here:
1) The first and by far fastest method is by using a cheat. Dont start any missions yet, go to the menu, go to Cheats and enter the code "Quimbecile". This will immediately unlock 44/44 stars, BUT no achievement. Simply play the first elliminiation challenge and master it. Now upon getting 4 stars in the first round, all achievements will unlock, easy as that.
2) Well the second alternative is of course to play it legit. You can download replays from the leaderboards to see what to do, and when. I can tell that this way will take much longer then the previous solution!
Whichever you choose, upon completing the last challenge you will have unlocked all the achievements for this game mode and finished it.
Earn 10 stars in MI6 Ops.
Earn 25 stars in MI6 Ops.
Earn 44 stars in MI6 Ops.
Congrats, you completed the Single player part of this game!
