Please do not support this micro transaction pricing model. All of the DLCs cost more than the base game but provide less content. 16 dollars for one mission is complete greed.

About the Game
NEW OPERATIVE, NEW THREAT, NEW EPIC CAMPAIGN
Offering unparalleled sniping mechanics, stealth and tactical third-person combat, Sniper Elite: Resistance turns the attention of the award-winning series towards a hidden war, far from the front lines, deep within the heart of occupied France.
In a gripping new story that runs parallel with Sniper Elite 5, Harry Hawker, agent of the Special Operations Executive (SOE), takes the lead for the first time as he discovers an insidious new Wunderwaffe - something so powerful, it guarantees the Nazis will win the war.
Working with the French Resistance, this deadly addition to the Reich's arsenal must be eliminated.
Multiple Kill List targets, and different infiltration and extraction points give you an unequalled choice with how to accomplish objectives and create your own playstyle.
The full campaign can also be experienced in co-op. Fight against the Nazi war machine with an ally to share weapons, items and tactical know-how, as well as help each other get back in the fight when you go down during firefights.
VISCERAL X-RAY KILL CAM AND ADVANCED GUNPLAY PHYSICS
The trademark X-ray kill cam returns, showing the true destructive power of every one of your signature shots. Bones deflect bullets to unpredictably rip new paths through enemy bodies and SMGs and pistols also trigger kill cams, showing multiple bullet shots in dramatic slow motion.
To land that shot you will need to think like a true sniper. Factor in rifle stock and barrel options along with gravity, wind and heart rate while you zero your sights on the target.
AUTHENTIC WORLD WAR II WEAPONS AND CUSTOMISATION
The arsenal at your disposal will feature returning franchise favourites as well as a host of new authentic WWII weapons. Picking your loadout will be key to striking down the Reich’s nefarious plans!
Customise your weapon to suit your operating style. Find workbenches scattered around the campaign to customise and upgrade your rifles, secondaries and pistols with new scopes, stocks, barrels, magazines and more. Also remember to pick the right ammo for the right job, whether you need armour-piercing shells or a non-lethal takedown.
PROPAGANDA MISSIONS – BE THE RESISTANCE
Locate unique Propaganda posters across the main campaign and step into the shoes of a French Resistance fighter in all new Propaganda missions. During these scenarios, sneak, snipe and take down enemies to complete time-sensitive objectives and help end the Nazi occupation.
AXIS INVASION MODE
The fan-favourite Axis Invasion mode is back! invade another player’s Campaign as an Axis sniper and engage in a deadly game of cat and mouse. Whether you stalk your prey, lay an ambush, or run in guns blazing, the threat of invasion provides a new dimension to the campaign’s challenge.
TENSE ONLINE MULTIPLAYER
When you’ve mastered your rifle, customise your character and loadout as you take the fight online in competitive 16-player battles to earn XP, medals and ribbons.
If competition isn’t your style, you can also team up with up to 3 other players against waves of enemies in Survival mode.

User Reviews
As others have said, this feels more like a DLC than a standalone game. The missions are just scaled down versions of the ones in SE5. You get new maps, but they are much smaller and just don't seem very interesting to me at all. The only thing that feels new is the new character who sounds like Jason Stathem, but let's be honest, the characters and story have never been the strong suit of this series. I just don't see how Resistance can be seen as anything more than a cash-grab; there is nothing in this to merit buying this even at 40% off, unless you're a die hard fan of the franchise craving for more of the same content from SE5.
ABSOLUTE GARBAGE. SE used to be my favourite game of all times but since it is plagued by blatant cheaters using offmap hacks and auto aim bots, the game is no longer enjoyable. Reporting this cheaters makes no difference at all, they won't get banned. Such a shame because this game has a lot of potential.
Quality wise it's just like SE 5, it's fun to play. However maps are noticeably smaller, in some cases half the size of the the previous game. the graphics surrounding the map barely have any detail, and on certain bullet kill cams you see outside the map. It's decent, but feels unfinished. Apart from the 1911 DLC (which should be fucking base game) all the DLCs being more than a tenner is insane. If they were all included then it might be worth the asking price, but no. If the game is on sale with like 40% or more off, get it. Don't pay full price like I have. SE 5 was worth full price, this game isn't.
This really should have just been DLC for SE5. It was fun to play as it's basically the same game as SE5 under the hood, but the kind of discount at which i could recommend it has yet to happen. Hawker is so unlikeable with his constant quips, thank God you can just use a Fairburne skin to turn that off. They really cheaped out on adding cutscenes, too, as all missions except first and last just drop you in then take you back out, save for a few basic shots of planes fyling overhead. SE5 at least showed Fairburne departing from the scene, even if it was just him driving off with that french woman. The only real upside over 5 is the Propaganda Missions, and even those are just timed little missions on existing maps. And, of course, the game that should have been DLC is itself riddled with DLC. 4$ for a single rifle or one pistol? And they aren't included in the season pass of the game that should have been DLC? I hope this asset-flip only exists as a quick cash-injection for SE6 to fina...
Very clearly not as good as Sniper Elite 4 or 5, but...... I still had fun. Price is always relative, make sure you get it discounted. If you can get it for cheap and go in to it knowing it's not nearly as good as the last 2 releases, you'll probably still enjoy it.
This game is fun in campaign mode for sure. The missions take some time to beat so its not a game you will beat in a day. The only thing i would say about it is if you are going to play the axis invasion, (which is fun and challenging) turn off cross play. It seems like every time i come across a console player, the anti cheat does not detect them. Today alone ive ran into at least 3 cheaters that can shoot thru walls or knows exactly where you are before you start moving and shoot you thru buildings or are instantly aiming at you to where you start moving, youre dead. That and if you come across a coop, one will sit by the phone and use it every 30 seconds and then camp the entrance so you can't get to them and then their teammate will hunt you down. Still makes it challenging but if they use the phone 3 times or more it reveals 1 of the players and not both. And they always are console players that abuse this. The steam players ive played against acutally play the game how it...
Another Full Scale Paid DLC but worth to buy. And still, a lot of cheater swarming
Only play this if you liked Sniper Elite 5, and want more of that, but at a noticeably lower quality. This felt like it was made by the B-Team at Rebellion. It is not worth full price. Get it during a good sale, but again, only if you've already beaten Sniper Elite 5 and all its DLC.
An excellent game credit to REBELLION
