About Sniper Elite 5

About this game

Karl Fairburne returns to the battlefield to travel throughout France and kill Nazis in the latest instalment to the award-winning franchise Sniper Elite. Pick up your rifle once again, as it's time to tackle new missions, explore brand-new immersive locations, and slay some Axis targets with an enhanced kill-cam.

Take part in a covert operation aimed at weakening the Atlantikwall fortifications, and make contact with the French Resistance to unveil and eradicate a Nazi project that threatens to end the war — Operation Kraken.

Expansive Campaign

Built with the usage of photogrammetry, the environments in Sniper Elite 5 were inspired by real-world locations to make the most immersive experience possible. Scattered throughout these areas, you'll find numerous infiltration and extraction points that will facilitate completing your mission. 

Advanced Gunplay Physics and Traversal

With immersive environments come even more amazing options for takedowns; explore the gorgeous setting in search of the best vantage point to perform a kill. Travel throughout the world with an interactive world, as you'll use ziplines, sliding from slippery slopes, and even shimmy along edges to find the best position suited for a sharpshooter.

High Calibre Customisation

Using the workbench system, customise your weapon to best suit your playstyle and needs. Change your scope, stocks, barrels, magazines, and much more in order to adapt to the situation; no great marksman is complete without their rifle. Better yet, change bullets to better suit your needs, as you'll have access to a wide array of ammunition for every scenario; pierce through heavy armour with armour-piercing bullets, or utilise non-lethal shells to disable your target rather than eliminate them.

Brand-New Multiplayer Modes

Even elite marksmen — such as Karl Fairburne — need help against the Axis forces every once in a while. Explore the intricate areas to find the best vantage point with a friend and find optimal routes, share items and ammo, and even heal each other. Don't get too comfortable, as the Axis also have something up their sleeve — face an enemy sniper controlled by another player to experience the truest form of battlefield tension. Enjoy the invasion mode as best seen in titles like DEATHLOOP and ELDEN RING.

Enjoy Sniper Elite 5's brand-new adversarial multiplayer modes, including 16-player battles to test your mettle against other snipers, or a co-op mode where you and four other sharpshooters will unite to fight against waves of enemies in the Survival mode.

The game is ok. 5.5 out of 10. I prefer the previous games where you could change the weapons in the load.out.. I can't seem to do that in this game. I also don't like the non open gameplay. Play is somewhat dull after the first hour or so. I like Sniper 4 the best. The developers seemed to have stepped back on this one.

This is a really good game, it isn't too much of an upgrade from Sniper Elite 4 but I like the weapon customisation mid level and the game design is really nice as well. I also managed to get a good deal from Fanatical when I bough the game, I managed to get it for £13.94 on 14/08/2023. Really happy to have such a great deal on such a great game!

Enjoying the game. The invasions are a fun new gameplay loop, but can sometimes be too much if you reload saves. You can get caught in a bit of an invasion loop, where you finish an invasion, and then instantly get another one after reloading a save.
