Sniper Elite: Resistance tells a gripping new standalone story that runs in parallel with Sniper Elite 5, letting Harry Hawker step out of the shadows as the lead protagonist.

Sniper Elite: Resistance tells a gripping new standalone story that runs in parallel with Sniper Elite 5. Harry Hawker, agent of the Special Operations Executive (SOE), takes the lead role for the first time in the series as he discovers an insidious new Wunderwaffe - something so powerful, it guarantees the Nazis would win the war.

Offering the unparalleled sniping mechanics, stealth and tactical third-person combat you would expect from the franchise, Sniper Elite: Resistance turns the attention towards the hidden war, far from the front lines, deep within the heart of occupied France.

Propaganda Missions are a brand-new style of side mission to the series. Locate a unique Propaganda poster in each of the main campaign’s levels to unlock a Propaganda Mission where you become a Resistance Fighter. With time-sensitive objectives, players must sneak, snipe and shoot, taking down enemies under certain conditions to complete their mission.

Kill List targets, multiple infiltration and extractions points and side missions allow player agency on how to complete your objective.


Rebellion released a new gameplay trailer for  Sniper Elite: Resistance showcasing a number of the game’s key features and modes. With a new protagonist, enthralling campaign storyline and the all-new Propaganda Mode, this promises to be another thrilling entry in the Sniper Elite franchise.

The events of Sniper Elite: Resistance sit alongside the storyline of Sniper Elite 5. For the first time in the series, Harry Hawker takes the role as the lead protagonist. Like his comrade Karl Fairburne (star of the Sniper Elite franchise), Harry is an agent of the Special Operations Executive and an expert marksman. He has been sent deep under cover in occupied France where he fights alongside the Resistance and discovers an insidious new Wunderwaffe that would turn the tide of the war. 

The game’s campaign is fully playable in both single player and online co-op. Invasion Mode, a fan favorite introduced in Sniper Elite 5, returns allowing players to drop into each other’s game as an enemy sniper to create a high stakes game of cat and mouse. There are also a host of adversarial multiplayer options.

Brand-new to the series is Propaganda Mode. Unlocked by discovering Propaganda posters hidden within the main Campaign, this new game mode lets you play as a Resistance fighter in thrilling quick fire challenges against the clock.

As always with Sniper Elite, the game offers unparalleled sniping mechanics, stealth and tactical combat as well as a wealth of weapon customization options, unlocked when you find workbenches hidden throughout the Campaign maps. Players can also expect huge agency on how to complete your mission, with optional Kill List targets, multiple infiltration and extraction points and side missions.

Key Features:

  • Full-length, standalone campaign available in both single-player and co-op
  • Authentic arsenal of World War II weaponry, featuring fan favorites as well as new additions 
  • Customize and upgrade weapons to overcome challenges and fit your playstyle
  • The trademark X-ray kill cam returns, showing you the true destructive power of each shot
  • Engage in cat and mouse multiplayer in the fan-favorite Invasion mode
  • Once you’ve set your scope, take things online with adversarial multiplayer

More details will be revealed about Sniper Elite: Resistance in the coming months.

Sniper Elite: Resistance is coming to PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and PC (Steam / Epic Games Store) on January 30, 2025, coming day one to Game Pass.
