Sniper Elite 5 is no different than its predecessors BUT...

Graphics, gameplay and story aside the Invasion gamemode is hands down one of the best mechanics in the game that separates this from any other Sniper Elite game! The cat and mouse game of "Wheres the sniper?" works great and is equally balanced on both sides pretty well. My only concern about the invasions are that if you're invading someones world and they have a teammate; After you pick off the teammate the other sniper has a 2 minute timer until you automatically win. I haven't experienced this yet but I can see how this can promote "Hit and run" behavior seeing how the other sniper doesn't know where you are unless they ring a phone, focus to see your estimated whereabouts or just see you in general.

Overall just like any sniper I stay to finish the job instead of running like a coward and so should you...
(Plus its another kill towards your upgrades as an invader)

If you've never played a Sniper Elite game I would say this is a pretty good introduction to the game and it has some fun mechanics as well as a cool Survival mode (Up to 4 players) that can be fun and equally challenging as well as a multiplayer mode that im borderline terrified of touching

Remember..
"A dead nazi is a good nazi" or if you prefer to hunt down those Allied dogs, "Konzentriere dich, du Schwein!"
