Attention snipers! With just [u][b]42 days[/b][/u] to go until the launch of Sniper Elite 5, we're delighted to unveil a brand new Weapons & Customisation Spotlight which reveals the steps the team at Rebellion takes to recreate the authentic weapons in minute detail. You can watch the latest Spotlight by clicking the below: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dy4ShfYhIX8 The Sniper Elite 5 Development team worked with renowned military historian and star of the Combat Dealers TV show, Bruce Crompton as well as the Imperial War Museum and Royal Armouries Museum to capture thousands of reference images and audio recordings of World War 2 weapons and vehicles to help ensure maximum authenticity.

[img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41627993/a1974b0bcda65e7ceb344320a1cab68637cec34a.jpg[/img] As Senior Designer Lawrence Barnett previously addressed in his Dev Diary (which you can read by [url=https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1029690/view/3224021888434176541]clicking here[/url]), Sniper Elite 5 offers a level of customisation never seen before in the series so far, with players able to change a weapon’s stock, magazines, receiver, barrel, scopes and iron sights as well as the materials. This enables the player to finesse their weapons to best suit their playstyle, whether that is stealthy and methodical, ‘run and gun’, or a mixture of the two. Customisation options can also be accessed during gameplay as the player discovers Workbenches in the game maps. These will in-turn unlock further customisation options.
