Elite marksman Karl Fairburne returns and brings his sniping prowess to France as he fights alongside the French Resistance to weaken fortifications in Atlantikwall along the coast of Brittany. As the fight continues, they get to discover Project Kraken, a secret Nazi project that would end the war even before the Allies invade Europe.
Plainly put, Sniper Elite 5 not only managed to meet my expectations but far surpass them. What I thought would be a fun game for a couple of hours at most became quickly a phenomenal release I couldn’t get more of. Whether I charged in guns blazing or tried to be the ideal sniper or I did the side quests or main objectives, I had fun.
