Sniper Elite Resistance takes place in parallel with Sniper Elite 5. The most important thing to say is that game is mainly targeted for the fans of the franchise. So i recommend it, as like the other games, it is still enjoyable and the killcam are still on point. But there is a big problem : this game feels like a lazy DLC. Even more, some mechanics have been downgraded, and a really bad sensation of stagnation and regression, for examples in characters models and animations, that are really ugly, ressorts. The new character does not have the charisma neither the voice acting we could have with our dear Karl. Concerning the Story mode, as a veteran of the franchise, i really disliked how some maps were "strangely" and strongly similar to the previous installments. The first and last level should not be considered as levels. As the first one is a tutorial, and the last one a quick and long distance target with not much replayability. Despite that, I really enjoyed the core gameplay, (almost strictly the same as the previous game), but felt really underwhelmed by the level design and the syndrom of "déjà-vu", along the adventure. One other problem is the lack of improvements in gameplay mechanics. Worse than that, the pathfinding is to me more intricate than Sniper Elite 5, and the character's movements suffer a real regression in this opus. The running is aproximative. The cover is not better. And above all the fields feel more closed than ever, with a lot of invisible walls. Many times it is difficult to go through doors, an in the end, the most unerving thing is to climb stairs or mounds. It is clearly bugged and this part is obviously unacceptable for a game with a price that high. Also climbing a ladder and jumps are pathetically slow and rigid. And if my memory is correct, those problems were not even present in the old games, or at least the mechanics were more polished. The character upgrades feel really useless. The weapons seems to be well balanced, but the end The Karkano 98 rifle, The Thompson and the M1911, will be the best weapons to play with, in terms of damage and accuracy. Of course you will be able to find different approaches of gameplay, with the type of rifle you are using : Damage, Stability, BPM, Silenced, or Mobility. A real versatility can be felt with the kind of tactics you choose. The Coop Mode can be very enjoyable as long as you play with a friend or a good and intelligent random player. ( Yes there is a little bit of toxicity in Coop and Survival modes). The Axis Invasion represents one of the best feature of the game. It will force you to pay attention to every detail of your visual and sound environments. The adrenaline and tension it proccurs is really well convoyed. The Propaganda mod feels useless as there is no replayability, once you have done the challenges. The Survival mode is literally the same as SE4 and SE5, with one map literally copied/paste from a previous game. It can be fun in coop and with the goal of getting all medals, but nothing impressive. The multiplayer is chaotic and is absolutely broken. There is too many disconnections, and the servers are capricious. The sessions can be most o the time unbalanced as the high levels get equipments far more efficients than the new players. Also there are glitchers that use exploits to break the game and detroying the experience of the other players. Denuvo is a joke as there is a lot of cheaters. Yes i never thought encountering so much cheaters in this kind of games. Also the maps and most of the game modes are not really fitted for a sniper related game. Also too much players for the map size. It becomes really difficult to be consistent for a killfeed. Also in all modes (campaign, coop, survival and Multiplayer), the ribbons are bugged and many time even if you accomplished missions, they won't unlock, and you will have to retry again and again (it is especially infuriating in MP). Overall, the animations and characters models are uglier and more lazy than SE5. The maps are mid and feel recycled most of the times. There is no significant improvement in the all experience. Only the DLC's feel pleasants to play and refreshing, and i consider this as an overstatement. But still, if you are a fan, take it at a low price, and you will be in known ground with a quite similar experience as SE5. Slightly less good, but enjoyable. If you are a new player, do not hesitate and enjoy the best Sniper Elite game of all : Sniper Elite 4. Final Note : I really hope this game is just a candy given by Rebellion to please us, while they are giving their best for a Sniper Elite 6. The formula still works, but they definitely to step up for the next game. May excuse my English, it is not my first language.

After spending over 25 hours with Sniper Elite: Resistance, I have mixed feelings about the game. Pros: Engaging Sniping Mechanics: The game excels in delivering a satisfying experience for those who enjoy sniping and a slower-paced, stealth-oriented approach. Propaganda Challenges: The introduction of Propaganda missions adds a fresh layer to the series, with sniping challenges being particularly enjoyable. Cons: Survival Mode Needs Improvement: The Survival mode feels underdeveloped, with maps lacking adequate sniping positions, making it challenging to fend off enemies effectively. Feels Like a DLC: The overall experience resembles an extension of Sniper Elite 5 rather than a standalone title, lacking significant innovation. Recommendation: While Sniper Elite: Resistance offers enjoyable moments, it doesn't justify a full-price purchase. I recommend waiting for a sale to experience the game. Overall, the game provides a decent sniping experience but falls short in delivering fresh content and improvements over its predecessors.

This is more like an expansion pack than a new game. It seems to be on the Sniper 5 engine which honestly is completely fine. The graphics don't need to get much better they are already amazing and keep good performance. So basically you have to ask yourself if you are okay with a same looking game, but with a different story and more maps. It's very good and if you liked Sniper Elite 5 you will naturally like this.

DENUVO IS OPTIONAL! That's right, if you don't want to play multi-player then you can skip installing Denuvo. BTW, haven't found a single bug yet. Which is a miracle for AAA games these days.

They should have called this Sniper Elite 5 part 2 because it feels more like an expansion for SE5 rather than a new game -- but the main thing is that it's fun, especially for people who can't keep up with faster paced games like CoD. I do think it's time for a fresh take on Sniper Elite, maybe set in Vietnam or outside of WW2.
