I think the biggest praise I can give Sniper Elite: Resistance is that once my play session was over, I immediately went out and bought Sniper Elite 5 so I could keep playing. I was taken by my time with Sniper Elite: Resistance at Gamescom, so I was more than happy to recently attend a preview event to return to 1940s France to play what’s shaping up to be the first must-play game of 2025.
The last time around, I infiltrated a French castle town in broad daylight, which had me scaling the high walls of the town before making my way down into the narrow streets to blast away some Nazi testicles in horrific x-ray detail. This time, I was sent into a canal town in the dead of night to investigate some goings-on at a nearby train station and rendezvous with the local Resistance cell.
