Rebellion’s upcoming stealth-action title Sniper Elite 5 has dropped a new cinematic trailer that teases an invasion-like mode where players might be able to infiltrate and hunt down other players in their game.
Sniper Elite 5 is currently slated to be released in 2022, with no official date, but it already has fans excited to invade Nazi-infested France. The game has also been confirmed to be launching on Game Pass Day 1 alongside the Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and on PC via Steam, Epic Games Store, and Windows Store.
Sniper Elite 5 teases a new online invasion mode
Developed by Rebellion, Sniper Elite is a series of third-person stealth-action shooters, set during the Second World War, where players infiltrate Nazi-infested countries to take down the organization and silently turn the tides of war.
After North Africa in Sniper Elite III and Italy in Sniper Elite 4, the fifth mainline installment of the franchise takes the series to Nazi-occupied France. Similar to previous installments, the game will take the players to a complex open world where they’ll be tasked with taking down different high-ranking Nazi officers, from a distance.
Stealth is going to be the main weapon in the player’s arsenal, along with, of course, their sniper rifles. However, this cinematic trailer seems to tease something more in the form of an online invasion mode.
An online invasion mode, where players get to infiltrate other players’ sessions and stop them, isn’t something new. In fact, series like Watch Dogs, Dark Souls, and the recently released Deathloop implemented it brilliantly. However, this upcoming entry is going to be the first implementation of the mode, in the Sniper Elite series. From the looks of it, players will be not only able to infiltrate other players’ missions but become a genuine obstacle in their path.
Consider every skill set you have, adapt the ones you may lack and tackle any resistance that comes your way. Go forth into your week with pride soldier! https://t.co/ylEhRYccM4
