Against the Odds is the prologue chapter of 007 First Light. It is set in Iceland and casts Bond as a Royal Navy aircrewman attempting a helicopter rescue that collapses into an extended survival improvisation. The chapter functions as both a narrative inciting incident and a gameplay tutorial. It is the only chapter playable from the unpatched physical PlayStation 5 disc.
