Sniper Elite
New gameplay for the upcoming Sniper Elite 5 is here to offer a look at how Sniper Elite has evolved further
We are all still fighting our way toward that May 26th release date for Sniper Elite 5, and here we are with yet another look that the game and how it has evolved since the last title. Rebellion has always done an amazing job at doing this with their projects and it was never a doubt they would not here. The only big difference being that Sniper Elite 5 will be able to be released natively on the PS5 and Xbox Series X|S in addition to the PS4, Xbox One, and PC. While not totally different, it is a new set of hardware for the team to work with and expand the IP just a bit further out there. All of which, we can have a small sample of as of now.
While the new footage is not long, it does feel like Sniper Elite 5 is leaning heavy into the new abilities that the hardware can offer up. That is in both the new looks and customization options we will have for everything in the game but mainly in the bullet physics and damage dealt. While not completely photo-realistic, this is starting to look closer to all of that than any of the past Sniper Elite titles out there. Sure, we may not need to see someone's brains or balls exploding with a bullet, but you all know you want to. That is partially why these titles keep on rolling out and diving further into all of those new features to have.
Sniper Elite 5 — Marksman Trailer
Sniper Elite 5 will release on Xbox Game Pass, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 4 & 5, Epic Games Store, Steam, and Windows Store in 2022.
Sniper Elite 5 features a comprehensive suite of weaponry with the most customization and attachments ever seen in the franchise’s history. With over 200 options, including items such as scopes, suppressors, stocks, muzzle breaks, materials, and more, you will be able to adjust your loadout to suit your playstyle and the objectives you face in each mission.
Weapon Attachments and Customisation Options are primarily unlocked by finding Workbenches within each of the levels. As different elements are added, removed, or adapted the changes will be reflected in four key weapon stats: Power, Rate of Fire, Control, and Mobility.
Sniper Elite 5 has an extensive Campaign, which can be played as a 2-player online co-op, with real-world locations, painstakingly recreated using photogrammetry to ensure a deeply immersive experience. New traversal and movement options open these locations up like never before, giving you even more scope to find the perfect vantage point to take their shot.
Online, the new Invasion Mode allows players to drop into each other’s Campaigns and take the role of an Axis Sniper with high rewards on offer. This brings a whole new dimension to the game’s intense drama and extra diversity to the enemies you will face on the battlefield. Additionally, 16 players can face off in adversarial multiplayer in a variety of game modes.
Have you been waiting for the Sniper Elite IP to give you a realistic version of the gore or do you like that it is still on a cartoony scale still? Will you be looking to play the title in co-op when it hits or will you be going at it all solo? How close to these real-world locations do you think they can get with how things have changed over the decades? Give us all of that taste feedback down in the comments and then feel free to discuss it all if you so wish. As more for Sniper Elite 5 drops on us, we will add it all to the site. Do not miss out on a single thing as we keep getting ever closer to the game's launch.
