The trailer for Sniper Elite 5 has been released, and the game will be released as a Day One title on Xbox Game Pass in 2022.

The Sniper Elite franchise from Rebellion Developments is back for a fifth installment, and it'll be accessible on Xbox Game Pass on launch day. Rebellion Developments, the studio, and publisher, is aiming for a 2022 release date. The game will have the hallmark campaign, which will take place in France this time, as well as online co-op multiplayer and PvP options.

Along with Xbox systems and PC, the game will be released on PlayStation. The debut trailer highlighted the campaign's upgraded aesthetics as well as a nasty, new X-ray kill cam that looks as gruesome and exciting as ever. With the Sniper Elite franchise, Rebellion has easily established itself as one of the most successful indie studios, and the fifth instalment is looking good at this stage.

Sniper Elite 5 is headed for release in 2022

The gameplay in the Sniper Elite franchise is largely non-linear, allowing players to approach their objectives and take out targets in any way they see fit. There are a variety of alternatives accessible to the player, but the target is usually taken out using a Sniper Rifle, as the title suggests.

Sniper Elite 5 is expected to include a gameplay system similar to Deathloop and Dark Souls, in which players can join other players' games and play as a competitor sniper. This will undoubtedly result in engaging gameplay as well as the potential for emergent storytelling.

As previously stated, Sniper Elite 5 will be available on Xbox Game Pass from the start, which is huge. This means that subscribers will be able to play the game on the day it is released. The game's story will take place in France, and it will be intriguing to see what improvements Rebellion plans to make to the gameplay.
