Vive la France! | Take The Fight Behind Enemy Lines In Sniper Elite: Resistance

20th August 2024

New operative. New threat. New campaign.

The acclaimed Sniper Elite franchise returns with a new operative in the field. Rebellion is excited to announce Sniper Elite: Resistance, a brand new story within the saga.

Coming 2025 to Game Pass Day One, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Windows PC and PC via Steam, Epic and PlayStation 4 & 5

Sniper Elite: Resistance tells a gripping new standalone story that runs in parallel with Sniper Elite 5 and turns the attention towards the hidden war, far from the front lines, deep within the heart of occupied France. Players will 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. You will be required to seek out key Axis targets and work together with the French Resistance to destroy the Wunderwaffe once and for all.

In a scene from Sniper Elite: Resistance, Harry Hawker wields a silenced pistol, whilst carrying another soldier over his shoulder on a rainy dockyard. He is walking over a chained bridge with gunfire zipping all around him.

Weapons of warfare

Players will get to to grips with an authentic arsenal of World War II weaponry, featuring fan favourites as well as new additions.

Once reunited with their ideal loadout, players can head to one of the work benches scattered around the campaign map in order to customise their rifles, secondaries and pistols to their specification.

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

Become the Resistance

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

Throughout the campaign discover unique propaganda posters that will allow players 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.

Axis Invasion

Axis Invasion returns to Sniper Elite: Resistance with more campaign halting escapades. Watch as opponents scour the map in fear of attack. Strike when your enemies least expect, utilising 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.
