Intel has been intercepted and we are excited to announce that Sniper Elite: Resistance will launch on January 30th 2025 and is now available to pre-order.

Further intel has also revealed the Sniper Elite: Resistance Deluxe Edition, which will include additional Season Pass content when that launches later in the year.

In Sniper Elite: Resistance, Harry Hawker, agent of the Special Operations Executive (SOE), takes the lead role for the first time in the series as he discovers an insidious new Wunderwaffe – something so powerful, it guarantees the Nazis would win the war. This new standalone story runs parallel to the events of Sniper Elite 5 and turns the attention towards the hidden war, far from the front lines, deep within the heart of occupied France.

As you would expect from Sniper Elite, the game offers unparalleled sniping mechanics, stealth and tactical third-person combat. You can also expect huge agency on how to complete your mission, with optional Kill List targets, multiple infiltration and extractions points, and side missions. Sniper Elite Resistance also introduces Propaganda Missions, a brand-new style of side mission to the series. Locate a unique Propaganda poster in each of the main campaign’s levels to unlock a Propaganda Mission where you become a Resistance Fighter.

Heed the call back to the battlefield soldier. You may have vanquished many a foe on the French coastline, but your mission there will continue in Sniper Elite: Resistance.

Watch the Sniper Elite: Resistance Reveal Trailer:



You will now take on the role of Harry Hawker, an agent of the Special Operations Executive (SOE). Intel has revealed powerful and deadly weapons known to the Axis as the Wunderwaffe. An arsenal of this magnitude could surely turn the tide of the war in their favour. Your elite skills will be required to seek out key Axis targets and work together with the French Resistance to destroy the Wunderwaffe once and for all!




Reacquaint yourself with an armoury packed to the rafters with authentic World War II weapons. As well as some familar guns in your inventory, expect some new pieces that will aid in your missions success.

Once reunited with your ideal loadout, make sure to head to one of the workbenches scattered around the campaign map in order to customise your rifles, secondaries and pistols to your specification.

The visceral X-ray kill cam and advanced gunplay physics returns, demonstrating the unmatched destructive power of every one of your signature shots.




Propaganda Missions are a brand-new style of side mission to the series.

Throughout the campaign discover unique propaganda posters that will allow you to step into the shoes of a French Resistance fighter. With time sensitive objectives, players must sneak, snipe and shoot, taking down enemies under certain conditions to complete their mission.

Will you be up to the task?


Axis Invasion returns to Sniper Elite: Resistance with more campaign halting escapades. Watch as your opponent scours the map in fear of your presence. Strike when they least expect, utilising your weapons and equipment to full effect. Their campaign success is in your hands, so whether you go all guns blazing or adopt a more stealth approach, only one will be determined the victor.




Call upon your squad and head onto the battlefield read for combat with Multiplayer. Whether you prefer the chaos of Deathmatch or No-Cross or the wave based tactics of Survival, there is plenty of scope based carnage to be had. Compete with up to 16 players and battle it out until a champion is crowned.

Sniper Elite 5 is available now on Xbox Game Pass, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 4 & 5, Steam and Windows Store. Sniper Elite 5 offers an unparalleled tactical sniping experience as you fight your way across the most immersive maps ever featured in the series, with many real-world locations captured in stunning detail.

The new Launch trailer to celebrate the release of Sniper Elite 5 is available to view here:


Sniper Elite 5 takes place in the events around D-Day in France, 1944, as our hero Karl Fairburne joins a covert US Rangers operation to weaken the Atlantikwall fortifications along the coast of Brittany. There he makes contact with French Resistance, and they begin to uncover a secret Nazi plot that threatens to turn the tide of the war back in the Nazi’s favour: Operation Kraken. It is now down to Karl to reveal exactly what the Axis forces are planning and end Operation Kraken, and the mastermind behind it, Abelard Möller, before it can be launched.



Rebellion CEO, Jason Kingsley said: “We are extremely proud to be releasing Sniper Elite 5 today and cannot wait for players to get their hands on the game. The franchise continues to go from strength to strength and the entire team at Rebellion has done a fantastic job to create the best game in the series to date. We are particularly proud of the new Invasion Mode which we think will be a real fan favourite. The tension and challenge that the invasion creates really intensifies and heightens the gameplay experience.”


Expansive Campaign – real-world locations have been captured using photogrammetry to recreate a living, immersive environment with multiple infiltration and extraction points. Side missions, hidden collectables and kill list targets provide a whole new perspective on each mission. Take on the Nazi plot solo or work with a partner, with improved co-op mechanics allowing you to share ammo and items, give orders and heal each other.

Invasion Mode and Co-op – invade another player’s Campaign as an Axis sniper and engage in a deadly game of cat and mouse, providing a new dimension to the challenge as you stalk your prey. Invasion Mode can be toggled on/off in the game menu. The entire campaign is also playable in 2 player online co-op with players able to share items and ammo and revive each other.

Weapon customisation – find Workbenches hidden in the missions (each mission has 3 to find) to customise and upgrade virtually every aspect of your weapon – change scopes, stocks, barrels, magazines and more. Rifles, secondaries and pistols all have a huge variety of options. On top of that you can select the ammo to suit your target, from armour-piercing right down to non-lethal.

Adversarial multiplayer – customise your character and loadout and earn XP, medals and ribbons as you take on intensely competitive 16 player battles that will really test your sharpshooting skills. If co-op’s more your style, you can team up with up to 3 other players against waves of enemies in Survival mode.

Full crossplay – crossplay enables you to seamlessly play co-op, Invasion Mode and adversarial multiplayer with other players on all other formats.

Enhanced Kill Cam – more realistic and grislier than ever, the trademark X-ray kill cam returns, showing you the true destructive power of each shot. Bones deflect bullets unpredictably, ripping a new path through enemy bodies. SMGs and pistols can also trigger kill cams, including multiple shots in dramatic slow motion. The frequency with which a player sees Kill Cam can be changed in the game menu, including the ability to switch it off entirely.

Advanced gunplay – factor in rifle stock and barrel options along with gravity, wind and heart rate while you line up your sights on the target. For the first time in the series iron sights have been included for SMGs and pistols.

New traversal mechanics – Karl can now use zip lines, slide down slopes and shimmy along ledges to reach the perfect vantage point, or to sneak past sharp-eyed enemies. Enhanced climbing abilities now allow you to explore hidden areas in the game map and unlock alternative routes.

Don't forget to stay up to date with all the latest Sniper Elite 5 intel by following us on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and YouTube or by joining your fellow comrades in the official Rebellion Discord.

Allied HQ has passed on further intel and included a new Sniper Elite 5 video that reveals details about the stealth options that will be available to elite level snipers when the game is released on May 26th. Offering insight from the development team as well as from the game’s military advisor and motion capture artist Paul Biddiss (https://twitter.com/PaulBiddiss), the new Spotlight trailer features interviews and gameplay footage showcasing the new traversal, sneaking and takedowns in Sniper Elite 5, including new non-lethal options.

The new Spotlight video is available to watch here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u435k6geWj8
Paul Biddiss, the military advisor and action co-ordinator for a number of high-profile movies and TV shows, provided his expertise to the Sniper Elite 5 development team as well as being the motion capture artist for Karl Fairburne, helping to ensure the highest possible level of authenticity to his movements and takedowns. Speaking about his involvement in the game Paul said: “All the takedowns are realistic to the training that was given to SOE operatives… everything is realistic. There is no embellishment.”



The new video also gives details of the other stealthy options open to Karl including new traversal mechanics which open up hidden areas of the maps as well as giving the player alternative routes to approach their objectives. The player will also have to consider the audible distance of both their weapon and ammo when taking a shot if they want to remain undetected.



In Sniper Elite 5 you will have a host of non-lethal options at your disposal including the ability to incapacitate the enemy with non-lethal takedowns and ammunition. These options provide you with even greater scope to approach each mission and game scenario in a way that best suits your playstyle and your objective.



One final bit of intel for the tabletop gamers out there – preorders for Sniper Elite: The Board Game are now open from the Rebellion Unplugged webstore. This tense stealth action board game sees one player take on the role of Allied Sniper Karl Fairburne, while up to 3 players team up to command the Axis forces and hunt their enemy down.

With the launch of Sniper Elite 5 fast approaching, we want to showcase the accessibility features you can expect to find in the latest instalment of the award-winning series.

It’s important to us that as many people as possible can play our games and so we’ve worked hard to reduce barriers and make Sniper Elite 5 more approachable. We’re also aware of the importance of publicising our features so you know if you can play before you buy. Without much further ado here are the upcoming accessibility features in Sniper Elite 5:

Everyone is an Elite as you can customise the difficulty to whatever suits you.

You’ll have five pre-set difficulty levels to choose from ranging from Civilian (Very Easy) to Authentic. Our new Civilian difficulty is our equivalent of a story mode with highly reduced combat, player damage and enemy awareness, so we hope this will open the game up to players who found Sniper Elite 4 too challenging. In addition, you can customise the combat, sniping and tactical aspects of the game independently to better suit you.



But difficulty customisation doesn’t end there. In our Advanced Difficulty mode you can fine tune a huge range of specific elements to best suit your playstyle. From how much information is displayed on the radar to health regeneration and enemy AI behaviour, you’ll be able to tailor the game to your capabilities.

Difficulty can also be changed at any time from the pause menu, so there’s no need to restart a mission if you find the challenge too high or low.

Sniper Elite 5 introduces enhanced tutorial options. Not only do you have constant access to detailed tutorials (accessed from the pause menu) to help guide you through all the mechanics and enemies you may encounter, but we also have options for the frequency of tutorials and even an option to reset them. So, if you have a break and come back to the game or just need extra reminders, you can reset the tutorials and jump straight back in without having to play through an introductory level to get your bearings.



Sniper Elite 5 is fully voice acted and with that come subtitles. Our subtitle customisation gives you the ability to change text size, colour (from a range of pre-sets) and background opacity. All subtitles include speaker names too, so you’ll always know who’s talking.
In multiplayer we have a quick chat wheel with common shout outs – each of these are also voice acted and have subtitles displayed on screen.



Sniper Elite 5 also has some scaling options for text in menus and some HUD elements. Scaling for UI text is limited to small, medium, large sizes.

We know our colour blind players struggled with the Stealth system in Sniper Elite 4 as it relied heavily on colour. So, to help fix that we’ve added colour adjustments to SE5 for enemy awareness and location markers. You can now choose from four pre-defined colour palettes; original and 3 colour blind accessible variants.





We’ve separated out some audio channels so you can set them to whatever works best for you. Including individual sliders for hit feedback, dialogue and enemy awareness cues, you’ll be able to balance the sounds most important to you as you play. For multiplayer you can enable or disable voice chat and adjust the chat volume independently.

We also have a setting to adjust the Dynamic Audio Range, so that you can reduce the severity of loud noises like explosions. Finally, SE5 uses Spatial Audio to help you locate enemies around you and immerse you in the fight.

Anyone can be a Sniper, and with the huge range of Aim Assist options available you won’t have to worry about pinpoint accuracy if that’s not your thing. Aim Assist is also customisable by state, so you can have different aim assistance settings for firing from the hip, scoped and ironsights.

Sniper Elite 5 will also launch with full control remapping on mouse and keyboard. For gamepad users we have 6 pre-sets to choose from - three layouts each with left and right-handed variants. These left and right variants swap the stick functionality.
SE5 will also offer the standard sensitivity and axis inversion options.

The first time you launch the game you’ll be asked to do the usual set up, but you’ll also get a chance to change the accessibility settings and subtitle display right away before any cut scenes. This ensures that you can experience the game in a way that suits you from the get go.

A few visual settings we offer include support for reducing motion sickness, where you can disable Motion Blur and Binocular Distortion. And finally, everyone loves a kill cam, right? Well, not always. You’re free to turn off Kill Cameras or X-Rays whenever you like. So if gore isn’t something you’re keen on, you can play without fear of those incredibly graphic testicle shots!

Although we’re really proud of what we’ve achieved for Sniper Elite 5, we’re still at the start of our accessibility journey. We hope to release more accessibility features in updates and we want to hear from you – our players – about what barriers you face and what features would help you. Or is there something we have that doesn’t quite meet your needs? Get in touch with us on twitter @Rebellion, join the conversation on our Discord, or through our Help Centre.
