The Blackball challenge in 007 First Light will require players to challenge Greenway to a game of pool. While James and Greenway don't actually play pool together like a mini-game, there's a pool rack in one of the offices on the executive 2nd floor that you can interact with to complete the challenge. It's a funny little interaction that can be easily missed if you're not exploring each room. Here's a quick guide to help you complete the challenge with ease.

How to Challenge Greenway to a Game of Pool in 007 First Light (Blackball Challenge)

Getting to the Offices on Other Side Pool Game Blackball 007 First Light

To challenge Greenway to a pool game, players will first need to reach the executive 2nd floor of the Webb Industries building during the "Knightfall" chapter of 007 First Light. Once you help Greenway go through the East Wing door, wait around a bit until he rests on the railing and asks James to join him, calling it a tactical pause.

Make sure to complete this interaction to update the objective. Once it's over, simply go over the railing and use the ledge to reach the offices on the other side.

Once you reach the other side, you can either move forward and jump over the wall to progress through the mission. However, doing this will lock you out of completing the Blackball challenge in 007 First Light. Instead, go left, and you'll come across a locked door to a room with a pool table inside.

Use the Q-Watch to hack the door on the other side to let Greenway inside, allowing him to unlock the door for James.
