Reviewing (mostly) every game (or DLC) in my library, part 666: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️☆ (9/10) Is it strange to call Sniper Elite 5 ("SE5") a beautiful game, unironically? Like, subject matter aside, shooting a dude in the testicles is objectively gross, especially when you hear a squelch and see a human skeleton. I dunno, I guess I have a weak stomach. But, like, SE5 is a beautiful game. I don't mean the graphics, though, but wow is the game gorgeous. I'm talking about the way it lets you move through and interact with its environments. The added movement mechanics, the gunplay, the customization, and, most importantly, the maps themselves all make SE5 feel like more than just a game about going somewhere and shooting everyone. And, yeah, killing Nazis is always fun. Pros: ✅ Being a sniper. As I mentioned in my intro, there are moments where you find a good sniping perch, look through your scope, and suddenly the entire map opens up in front of you. You can see patrols moving through the streets, vehicles coming and going, enemies stationed in buildings, and all the little routes and opportunities you hadn't noticed while you were on the ground. There's no timer. You can take as long as you want to angle the scope juuust right, waiting for a soldier to pace back and forth, while you listen to the birds chirp or the rumble of tanks. You can see how plentiful the map is, but sometimes it feels like just you against the world. ✅ More fluid movement. I played Sniper Elite 4 a while ago on Nintendo Switch, so I can't quite remember if these mechanics were present then. If they were, ignore me! But I loved the added physicality to SE5. Karl can now jump, crawl, climb, shimmy, and hang from ledges, pipes, or vines, as well as slide down ziplines. It's just so freeing how you can approach a building from the front, sneak around the back, climb up to a window, or find some ridiculous little crawlspace. ✅ Customization . I really like how much control SE5 gives you over your weapons. You can modify your rifle, scope, suppressor, magazine, stock, and a ♥♥♥♥ ton of other parts, which means you can actually build your loadout around how you want to play. Do you want something quieter? More accurate? Faster to reload? Better at long range? There are tradeoffs, so it doesn't feel like you're just constantly replacing your gun with a bigger number. A bolt-action sniper, for instance, handle different from a semi-automatic sniper rifle. ✅ Maps. Honestly, the maps are probably my favorite thing about SE5. They're big, detailed, and full of little paths, buildings, interiors, rooftops, courtyards, tunnels, vehicles, and environmental opportunities. They range from a towering chateau to an intimate war-torn battlefield to an idyllic countryside. More importantly, however, they don't feel like they're designed around one single solution. You can spend ten minutes planning how you're going to infiltrate an area and then completely abandon that plan because you noticed a window, a conveniently placed explosive, a tunnel, a padlocked door, or a patrol route you can exploit. There are so many little details that make exploration worthwhile, and I constantly found myself stopping to look around and figure out exactly how many entrances could get me into this damned castle. Like, these maps take a while to clear, ranging anywhere from two to five hours. Dare I say, SE5 is a bit immersive sim-like? ✅ Flexible difficulty. Surprisingly, you can fiddle around with pretty much every difficulty setting. Authetic difficult—the highest—isn't just "enemy health go up." Nah. You'll pay much more attention to your positioning, timing, sound, enemy awareness, and ballistics. Not to mention HUD, enemy aggression, health regenration, damage taken, and so on! Suddenly that perfect shot isn't just "line up the crosshair and click." You have to actually think about distance, movement, wind, and whether taking the shot is even worth revealing your position. ✅ Collectibles. Normally, collectibles are something I tolerate because a game tells me I should. SE5 actually made me want to look for them. There's a couple types. One are Stone Eagles, little statutes that are hidden usually on a map's highest point. It requires a good eye and aim to hit them. Another are letters or notes, which have information that unlocks new objectives, cool lore, or funny stories. My favorite, though, are the little soldier blurbs you get when you "tag" an enemy with your bincolours. They're pretty short, maybe a sentence or two, but they manage to convey the whole range of human emotions. Cons: 🟥 Some achievements require multiplayer. 🟥 Some bugs. Nothing that completely ruined the game for me, but SE5 definitely has its moments. Enemies can occasionally get stuck running into a wall or on a rock, animations can get a little wonky, and I've had a moment where the in-game achievments thought I got two stars on a mission instead of three. 🟥 I don't looooove the two season passes and DLC-locked missions and guns, but I guess that's just the era we live in now.

Didn't know what to expect when my friend asked me to play, but it's safe to say that it was a delight from start to finish. The story exists for the gameplay to make sense and I can't complain, every single kill felt satisfying and entertaining. Its a shame the game ended so fast, but I'm definitely hooked on the series and looking forward to playing older titles from the franchise.
I didn't expect but this is the best part and the best sniper game. Each map is living, vehicles are moving everywhere, motorbike patrols the streets, truck driver shows documents to pass the post, officers are resting and soldiers are working. But if they notice you, they are running to set the alarm ASAP and you have to deal with a truck full of heavily armed special forces troops (feels sweaty on max difficulty). I love first person view for iron sight weapons, finally SMGs and pistols are amazing. I like an opportunity to open new starting points so you can start mission again in different place. Also nice music and amazing graphics. I didn't touch multiplayer because the game always was for single and coop, I think devs just wasted their time lol. 10/10
As an unconditional fan of the Sniper Elite franchise, I must analyze the fifth installment, which undoubtedly has its highs and lows. To begin with, this fifth installment is essentially identical to the fourth in terms of mission structure and gameplay formula. This is generally not a bad thing, since, gameplay-wise, Sniper Elite 4 is a very good game. Possibly, one of the few aspects I liked the most is the atmosphere and the well-crafted levels. And here comes the negative part. Rebellion, the developer, has brought us the same story for the third time: We are in the area, we investigate a Nazi superweapon, we destroy it, and finally we kill the mastermind behind it all. I know for many the story isn't important, but the same premise is getting tiresome. Regarding enemies, we basically have the same as in the fourth, but without the Italian troops, so we basically see the same troops throughout the entire game. Possibly the worst aspect I see in this game is the weapons, since the base game includes very few. As an example of this lack of variety, we didn't even have a secondary shotgun, which was added later as free DLC. A rifle like the Lee Enfield was also added as free DLC, but weapons like the Mosin Nagant, the PPSh, the Mauser C96 pistol, or the Grease submachine gun are behind a paywall—weapons that were in the base game of previous installments. But the worst part is that these weapons were already made in Zombie Army 4, a game that came out a year earlier and uses the same graphics engine as Sniper Elite 5. Basically, they copied and pasted them and are selling them separately. However, this problematic DLC issue has been evident since the third installment. The question is, do I recommend Sniper Elite 5? If you liked the fourth installment, I recommend this one, but only when it's on sale, especially now that the price has dropped quite a bit with the latest discounts.
