About Sniper Elite: Resistance

Sniper Elite: Resistance turns the award-winning series toward a hidden war fought far from the front lines, deep within occupied France. Offering the unparalleled sniping mechanics, stealth, and tactical third-person combat the franchise is known for, it tells a gripping new story that runs parallel with Sniper Elite 5.

This time Harry Hawker, an agent of the Special Operations Executive, takes the lead for the first time as he uncovers an insidious new Wunderwaffe so powerful it guarantees a Nazi victory in the war. Working alongside the French Resistance, he must eliminate this deadly addition to the Reich's arsenal. Multiple Kill List targets along with different infiltration and extraction points give you an unequalled choice in how to accomplish objectives and shape your own playstyle, and the full campaign can also be experienced in co-op, where you fight the Nazi war machine with an ally, sharing weapons, items, and tactical know-how while helping each other back into the fight after going down.

The trademark visceral X-ray kill cam returns, revealing the destructive power of every signature shot as bones deflect bullets to rip unpredictable new paths through enemy bodies, and now SMGs and pistols trigger kill cams too, showing multiple hits in dramatic detail. Paired with advanced gunplay physics, this action-adventure FPS on PC delivers precise, tactical marksmanship.
