Rebellion has released a fresh trailer for Sniper Elite Resistance, offering fans a closer look at how the game translates stealth, marksmanship, and World War II battles into a new chapter. The clip emphasizes how players will slip behind enemy lines with a blend of surgical sniping, explosive action, and cunning deception. It confirms that the game is slated to release on January 30 for PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
The heart of Sniper Elite Resistance unfolds in Nazi-occupied France during World War II. The narrative runs alongside the events of Sniper Elite 5, offering parallel threads and shared lore. Players take on the role of a covert operative who navigates shattered villages, fortified towns, and hidden networks as the resistance fights to disrupt the enemy’s grip on the countryside. The setting blends authentic period details with the series’ signature blend of stealth, sniping, and brutal takedowns, giving a sense of immediacy to every shot and every decision.
For the first time in the series, the lead is Harry Hawker, a Special Operations Executive operative and a master marksman. Hawker is dispatched to France to shore up resistance efforts, uncovering a dangerous project that could swing the war’s outcome. The story follows his methods, his patience, and his resolve as he pieces together intelligence, recruits locals, and faces a cadre of well-equipped enemies. The reveal of a secret weapon adds a ticking-clock dimension to the missions, inviting players to weigh risk and timing as they plan each operation.
A new Propaganda mode introduces a compact, objective-based challenge unlocked after discovering collectible posters within the campaign. In this mode, players step into the shoes of resistance fighters for short, timed sessions that demand quick thinking and precision under pressure. It functions as a break from larger missions while still feeding into the overall war effort, offering a chance to stockpile points, weapons, and morale by completing quick objectives before the timer runs out.
The game supports single-player campaigns and cooperative play with friends, advancing the series’ staple of tense stealth and sharpshooting. Expect refined shooting physics that feel more tactile and responsive, along with a broader range of weapon customization options that let players tailor their gear to mission needs. The multiplayer suite brings competitive modes where players can test aim, strategy, and nerve against each other, adding a social layer to the otherwise solitary sniping tasks.
Additionally, Hatsune Miku’s presence in Fortnite was revealed, showcasing her primary look, alternate outfits, and cosmetic items. This crossover illustrates how modern game worlds intersect, giving players new ways to engage with their favorite characters across titles.
