Sniper Elite 5 - 4k/60 on PS5, Series X, 1440p/60 on Series S, last gen locked at 30fps. Big leap in level detail because of photogrammetry this time

Was wondering why it was so large compared to Zombie Army 4 but that explains it.
Looking forward to giving it a shot.

The Sniper Elite series might be one of the best examples of where an "evolutionary" rather than "revolutionary" approach to sequels pays off.
Ever since V2 (as it was a quasi-reboot of the original and was quite different to it), the games have iteratively got better looking, with larger maps and more polish and variety in terms of gameplay - without reinventing the wheel. Seems to be the case here with the visuals as well.

I've never played a single second of this series, but I think I'm going to jump into this one. It's day one on Game Pass, so why not?
Sounds fun, and it sounds like those new-gen upgrades are substantial.

I'm curious about the DualSense implementations, because this is a game I could see using the triggers / haptics well.
It makes use of the Returnal style of aiming. Left trigger slightly pulled goes into third person aiming, hold it all the way down for the new iron sights mode all of the non-sniper rifles have now.
Brilliant, thank you ,never thought of actually checking the Xbox store, will remember that for the future
"The PS5 and Xbox Series X versions of Sniper Elite 5 will run at 60 frames per second, and will support resolutions of up to 4K."
Sometimes 4k/60 then.
Anyway this will be my first SE game (thanks Game Pass).

Is the first game just not on PS4 ?
On the PS5 store, i see V2 remastered (3 dollars), Sniper Elite 3, 40 bucks or whatever,, Sniper Elite 4 (free through ps plus?), and then 5 is up for order and out in 3 days or whatever. is V2 the second game or the first or.
Oddly , i was always a bit puzzled on which entries were out for the current consoles, and then the other series Sniper Ghost Warrior too, between that main series and the Contracts one ? and so on, very confusing what the set order is and which one is available really, .. the store i think needs some work generally on the search section.

On Youtube. I think it looks shit but it's free on game pass so I'll try it
The first game never got a port. That was just on the Xbox/PS2 era of consoles.
Sorry to ask as a reply under your reply comment,
But is it necessary to play that first game generally? Is it alright to just begin with V2 and onward? I think they all take place during WW2 right?
Nothing could matter less in these games than the story or continuity, it's a complete non factor. Just play whichever one you want to start with :)
V2 is a sort of reimagining of Sniper Elite for the PC/Xbox/PS2. V2 basically laid the groundworks for the rest of the games going forward.
Can't wait for Zombie Army 5 with this engine
Rebellion knows how to pump out content for their coop survival shooters, something that I can not say for the developers of ANY of the recent shooters in this genre (Back4Blood, Aliens, World War Z, etc.)

Cool cool, thanks,
I will probably pick up V2 on this sale , and just enjoy it and then the 4th entry i had for free with plus, and then the new one that looks great visually. I am sure they all look good though.
If any of yall are thinking of buying the season pass, be warned, from someone who got really invested into ZA4, there is a GOOD reason why they list the season pass as "Season Pass 1".
Zombie Army 4 wound up having 3 different season passes, each of them about 35 dollars, and a standalone finale DLC.

This one snuck up on me. I haven't gotten into one of these games since the third one but this seems like the one to come back to the series after all this time. It being on Game Pass is the cherry on top.
I've been playing this and it's GREAT. The visuals are a huge step up with the photogrammetry stuff they've got going on. And the stages are VAST. Took me two hours to get through the first mission. Took my time, snuck round, Hitman style.
It's really fantastic.

I never thought of comparing the games...but....you may have a point, lol. I dont agree, but I will concede that its debatable.
Those that never played any Sniper Elite game....hopefully this will be a treat for you.
Yeah, that's probably the best thing to do. 3 is really good too, but the Ultimate Edition of that is always on sale, so there's no real rush to buy that.
The games after V2 are less linear than that though. I'm not sure if 4 or 5 went for full on open world, as I haven't played or seen much of them, but 3 went for more sandbox styled levels, rather than the super linear approach of V2.
Really looking forward to this! Got it pre ordered on PC. They're all such dumb fun, the x-ray kill cam stuff is really satisfying.
I actually just bought Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2 recently because I was looking for my sniping game itch, but ended up refunding, Sniper Elite is just so much better.

would be cool if they did something different then WW2 tho. Wouldnt mind a future game from them.
Exactly why I didn't preload it, but now that I know it's 4k/60 I'll be clearing up some space!
