Moonlight causes cascaded shadows which appear subdued by the light coming from street lamps. Crepuscular rays will shine through the tree leaves in the early morning. Cliff faces, grass, trees, dirt, brick, stone, and other materials look fantastic, bringing the country of France to life. That is, Rebellion is using real-world pictures in the rendering process to make textures and models look more realistic. Rebellion, the developer, is now utilizing phototelemmetry. There has been a substantial improvement to the graphical fidelity in comparison to Sniper Elite 4, particularly texture rendering. That said, I highly doubt many people are playing these games for the story. There are some references to real WW2 events, such as the Battle of Normandy, but most things are merely historically based. In addition, it’s not really veracious with regard to history, if that’s your interest. The story is nothing special, and I’d argue downright forgettable. You discover a Nazi weapon known as “Kraken”, built to attack America, and your task changes from merely helping the resistance to saving America. Your task is to aid France by finding a way for Americans to infiltrate the country more securely, thus providing much needed assistance to the resistance. You continue as Karl Fairburne, an American operative, after the events of Sniper Elite 4 (though weirdly before the events of the second game - Sniper Elite V2 ).

Series fans will be downright comfortable with Sniper Elite 5, as it continues its established gameplay loop while fine tuning the experience. To that effect, it hasn’t changed much, though there have been some iterative evolutions of the gameplay throughout the series' life. The series has centered around the use of “realistic” ballistics. The Sniper Elite series began in 2005 on the PC, PlayStation 2, and Xbox as a relatively linear WW2 themed shooter, in an era when WW2 themed shooters were as common as open-world games are today. So, if what I’ve written thus far has piqued your curiosity, then stick around as you may uncover a very solid stealth-action game with some great open world sequences within the repetition. Sniper Elite 5 is quite the repetitive game, but that may not be as bad as it sounds.
Circumstances such as the one I’ve described above occur a lot. If this dramatization doesn't sound interesting to you, I recommend saving yourself a few minutes and putting this review down. Silently thanking my proximity mine, I climb down the stairs and leave through the back entrance to find another vantage point. As one soldier steps into the cabin, an explosion is set off. Satisfied, I begin to take aim for another guard when I notice the footsteps of nearby enemy soldiers inspecting the sound of gunfire. Though it does not kill him, it leaves him incapacitated. With enough velocity it continues a slightly deviated trajectory and pierces the stomach of the man behind him. Muscle and sinew are ripped from the bone as his head explodes in a bloody mess, but the bullet is not done. Starting with the jaw, it shatters through his teeth and through the back of his head.
The bullet pierces through the head of the unsuspecting guard. The sound explodes out of the end of the barrel and rips through the air headed directly for the target. I hold my breath, steady, and slowly pull the trigger. To calculate for bullet drop, I have to aim about a meter above where I want to shoot, and about one tick to the left. The wind is blowing approximately five miles an hour to my four o’clock, and the distance between myself and the chateau is about 180 meters. I pay close attention to the alarm system located in the middle of the court yard, the repetitive movements of the guards on their rounds, the gas generators providing the Nazis with electricity, and the height of the parapet above the castle grounds. I note two armed guards near the grounds of the entrance, two spotlights above the entrance, four guards making their rounds across the courtyard, three guards walking the battlement, and a sniper located in a watchtower about 30 meters away from the entrance. Conveniently, an open window faces a war torn chateau. I make my way to the second floor of the cabin, paying close attention to indications of the enemy. I find a two-story cabin overlooking my destination, which will serve as my point of reconnaissance. The sweat, blood, and grime coalesce into a single wet substance as I hike my way towards the objective.
