As a consequence, of course, slipping in-and-out of a level unnoticed is euphoria inducing. The aforementioned difficulty tuning can help alleviate this problem, but just be aware that the release is particularly penalising unless you’re permanently on-point. Obviously the title encourages stealth, but it absolutely punishes any minor slip-up, and you will find yourself relying on regular saving unless you’re an elite operative. While the campaign is thoroughly entertaining, the developer still hasn’t solved some age-old problems, like the fact that you can get totally overwhelmed after a simple mistake. Haptic feedback is also well-implemented, allowing you to “feel” nearby sound masks, like planes flying overhead and generators whirring nearby. It takes a little getting used to but it’s a smart inclusion which allows you to quickly transition between the two unique viewpoints.
You can toggle between third-person and first-person aiming options for all weapons, but while this is a button prompt on other platforms, Rebellion has used the PS5’s adaptive triggers to create a pressure point to differentiate between the two perspectives. One neat trick is how the title takes advantage of the DualSense controller. The camera can also be a little loose, although we quickly adjusted to this after tinkering with the settings for a few minutes. A distinctly Parisian soundtrack helps enhance the presentation, although some mechanics like climbing lack the precision of more polished third-person shooters. The game is a serious looker, too, with photogrammetry used to create some truly authentic scenery. The sheer scalability of the experience is a selling point, and when paired with the immense scope of the gameplay variety – spanning traditional third-person shooter all the way through to stealth simulation – it should appeal to a variety of demographics. You can enable options which will guide you around the surprisingly large levels, helping you to locate specific sections that will aid you in your mission – or you can go in blind and find them for yourself. This extends to infiltration points and areas of interest. It’s entirely up to you how you want to play. This means if you want deeply realistic gunplay, for example, but easier to manage stealth gameplay, then you can. A dense suite of customisable difficulty options mean you can determine exactly how realistic you want the bullet ballistics to be – and difficulty can be tailored across a variety of different elements. As you’d expect, bullet ballistics are once again taken into account, meaning you’ll need to account for gravity, wind, and weather before popping enemies in the eyes. Of course, beneath the intricately designed sandboxes and cartoon killcams, the game’s beating heart rests with its gunplay. The game’s missions are intended to be played over and over, with co-op and a new Axis Invasion mechanic – where rival snipers infiltrate your game online – adding to the replayability. As you explore the surprisingly vertical environments, you’ll discover intelligence and briefs which can help inform your approach – and while there isn’t quite the same number of assassination options as Agent 47 has at his fingertips, you’ll be surprised by some of the possibilities, which include dropping chandeliers and overloading blast furnaces. The result is missions that have taken this author upwards of two hours to complete, and that’s without even doing everything there is to do.
This architectural wonder is bursting with gameplay opportunities, spanning underground infiltration points to turrets that provide devastating sightlines – exactly how you approach is up to you. Take the gorgeous Beaumont-Saint-Denis stage, for example, which has been inspired by the real-life tidal island of Mont-Saint-Michel.
There’s no doubt the British developer has been peeking at Hitman’s playbook, and the result is a versatile military crusade that shines in repeated playthroughs. While the core gameplay remains tried-and-true, the release’s eight sandbox stages are denser than they’ve ever been. Armed with his trusty rifle and unwavering willpower, the seasoned veteran embarks on yet another one-man crusade to halt the Axis – one pair of bollocks at a time. The latest instalment, Sniper Elite 5, takes the gravel-voiced Karl Fairburne and his immaculately shaped short-back-and-sides to Nazi-occupied France, where he uncovers a MacGuffin plot called Operation Kraken which threatens to turn the tides of the Second World War.

Sniper Elite is a series so confident in its execution that Rebellion doesn’t really need to reinvent the wheel.
