Time to take aim once again sharpshooters, as the war’s not quite over yet. Sniper Elite 5’s Season Pass One is out now, kicking off with Landing Force.
Up close and personal
Developed by Rebellion in partnership with Flix Interactive, the brand-new Landing Force mission is inspired by the movie “The Guns of Navarone.” Set on an island off the coast of Southern France, the Nazis have installed a huge gun battery into the mountainside which is preventing the Allies from invading the South of France. Karl Fairburne is tasked with destroying these huge weapons under the cover of darkness before signaling the Allies that they are safe to begin Operation Dragoon. The island encourages the players to explore with a variety of different buildings, scenery and landscapes as well as ancient ruins, forts, walls and abandoned structures.
Rebellion press release
Along with the above, players who dive into Season Pass One will receive some hardware. Both the D.L. Carbine rifle and PPSH submachine gun are included and both new weapons pack a punch. The Carbine is “one of the quietest weapons ever created” according to Rebellion, and should make for some interesting sniping possibilities. As for the PPSH, it’s got a hell of a rate of fire, and should be an “ideal get-out-of-jail card for when things go wrong.”
Season Pass One is available now for all versions of Sniper Elite 5.
