Sniper Elite 5 is not just about camping in bushes with a sniper rifle and taking out the Nazi enemy over ridiculously long distances. The game does come with a variety of close-quarter combat features and weapons that are versatile enough to fit a variety of situations.

Stealth and exploration are two of the biggest gameplay mechanics in Rebellion Development’s latest franchise entry. Hence, to complement a variety of playstyles, the developers have introduced over fifteen guns in the title.

There are primarily three categories of guns in Sniper Elite 5. One is the Primary weapon which consists of sniper rifles, the secondary being SMGs and other longer-range rifles, which are more adept for mid to long-range combat, with the final one being pistols.

Today’s guide will therefore go over the list of available guns in Sniper Elite 5 and how players will be able to obtain them in the game.
