You’re dropped into a large – though not quite open – map and given a general objective. Sniper Elite 5 has a fairly straightforward setup, but the way it’s executed this time is what makes the difference. I expected a good stealth game (and a satisfying sniping sim-cade) but I wasn’t ready for how ambitious, and often brilliant, Sniper Elite 5’s mix of stealth and action is. Sniper Elite 5, however, launches into Game Pass – and that was all the convincing I needed to download Rebellion’s latest and play it now, rather than pick it up on sale down the line like I usually do. The trailers and gameplay we got to see ahead of launch showed incremental upgrades and general refinements over its predecessors, but nothing that immediately stood out as something I needed to try.

But I wasn’t particularly looking forward to Sniper Elite 5. I’ve played them all, though rarely at launch, and I’ve enjoyed them all to varying degrees.
