    It's just like Sniper Elite 4, but in France. The new invasion mode is great, and the game is a lot of fun. The campaign is NOT very long, but you can replay missions to explore areas that you couldn't explore before. Overall, this game is a 8, but I will give it a 9 just for the crybabies that will say it's bad just because of the graphics.

    I thoght this game was addictive. Not the best graphics up close. But when you take the view from a far its lovely.
    Story is so-so. Nothing to jump around about, and neither is the voice acting.
    However, i have not played the previous games, sniping is optional sort of. Or you basically choose how to proceed. Going stealth takes time and patience for once.

    Going stealth takes time and patience for once. Going brutally in with guns blazing can be a challenge. Especially when they raise the alarm. Krauts will be crawling the place..
    I thought it was pretty fun to boobytrap stuff around, just to blow dumb germans away.
    AI is not the best when you are up close and personal. But when you raise suspicion on them, they start to roam and investigate. But in combat they seem to run around like brainless chickens.
    All in all, i thought it was addictive enough. Better than most stuff out there. Great replayability as well. You can easily muster two rounds with this game.

    I am avid fan of this franchise as my favourite genre is stealth. To make it even more entertaining I play it on authentic difficulty and it is all about planning and slowly moving forward. This is a great game if you love stealth. Rebellion, please never go open world as this smaller sandbox maps are great and somehow even more fun to explore than open world games.

    Essa com certeza é a melhor versão que joguei do Sniper Elite, ainda existe alguns bugs. Porem ficou muito divertido jogar online Coop com um amigo, o nível de dificuldade em algumas fases é alta mas o ritmo e as missões são bem legais. Graficamente no geral são bons, algumas fases impressionam outras nem tanto. Recomendo principalmente para se jogar coop

    Sniper elite 5 is a very solid WW2 3rd person shooter. It features great level design with some gorgeous vistas, level 3 "Spy Academy" in particular was phenomenal in this regard. The pacing and direction closely follows the recent hitman games. The areas are large with many areas to explore, different paths and starting areas can be unlocked.

The areas are large with many areas to explore, different paths and starting areas can be unlocked. Much like the hitman games the perfect path can likely be found to speedrun through games. Where this game lacks a little for me is the amount of enemies and the difficulty in maintaining stealth. The levels, especially the later ones, are jammed full of enemies and the stealth options in this game are farily limited compared to other similar titles like Hitman or MGS5. Over and over again I ended up in all out gunfights, luckily the shooting and combat in the game is very fun, if standard, 3rd person combat. A fun game that took me around 13 hours to beat all 9 story missions 1 time. Will look forward to the DLC, thank you GamePass.… Expand

    自从把狙击枪装了消音器，然后就一直在声音传播范围外开枪，很不错。

    The game brings a rather careful evolution and is not that different from the fourth installment. Everything has been taken a step further, including the graphics, controls and even the haptic response of the controller. Which, on the one hand, is fine, because it's still a hell of a fun and polished simulator of a WWII saboteur and sniper. [Issue#320]

    With its large and well executed environments, Sniper Elite 5 is a strong follow up to 2017’s previous entry in the series, with a healthy balance of open-ended approaches and a clear direction. Maps are large enought to revisit and rediscover new areas as well as acting as an endless playground to perform trick shots and discover its secrets. Where it does falter is in the occasionally stilted AI that is either fiercely intelligent or completely helpless.

    Sniper Elite 5 offers a very specific treat to choose from. Everything it does, does it adequately and consistently. There are problems such as the poor AI, the low variety in the gameplay and rough graphics, but the whole package is decent.
