A realistic sniping game developed by Rebellion Developments for the Xbox, PlayStation 2, Nintendo Wii, and Windows PC.In this game, you are Karl Fairbourne, an American OSS Agent operating in Germany during the final stages of the Second World War. You conduct various missions and operations against invading Soviet forces over-running Germany and remnants of the Nazi Army still in the cities. Your goals are usually oriented toward hindering the Soviets from receiving information regarding nuclear weapons development from the falling Nazi government. You also render aid to the local German Resistance fighters as they fight the Soviets.The main selling point of the game is the realistic sniping system. This includes the effects of wind, posture, heartbeat, bullet drop due to gravity, and even being shot. The game has adjustable difficulties which adjust the challenge of the AI and the realism of the shooting effects. The player can earn Points of Fame for shots they make. A bullet cam effect is shown when the player makes headshots at 30m and out. The effect also sometimes triggers other kill-shot events.Unlike its contemporaries at the time such as Medal of Honor and Call of Duty, the player will die easily if they don't fight smart as the AI uses flanking, cover, and grenades to good effect. Being quiet and sneaky goes a long way.The game received a reboot for its sequel and led to a series of games including: Sniper Elite V2 (2012) Sniper Elite III (2014) Zombie Army Trilogy (2015) - A Spin-Off about fighting hellish legions of Nazi Zombies. Zombie Army 4: Dead War (2020) Sniper Elite 4 (2017) Sniper Elite VR (2021) Sniper Elite 5 (2022)Other media: Sniper Elite The Spear Of Destiny (2009) Sniper Elite V 2 Target Hitler (2012) Nazi Zombie Army Gotterdammerung (2014) Sniper Elite Resistance (2018) Zombie Army Fortress Of The Dead (2020) Zombie Army Last Rites(2020) Sniper Elite Origins (2022) | |

Dressing as the Enemy - Karl. He's wearing a German uniform, which is meant to prevent the Nazi forces from attacking him. Too bad it's a case of Informed Attribute as the remaining Nazi forces will attack you on sight even when you're not attacking them (see below). | |

Benevolent Architecture: Even for a war zone, there are an awful lot of little barricades and sniper positions about. Justified that considering the Battle for Berlin is an urban warfare type of battle, these kinds of covers would be helpful for both the Nazi German defenders and the invading Red Army soldiers. | |

Artistic License – History | |
| Sniper Elite (Video Game) / int_56515a39 | comment |
Artistic License – History: Acknowledged, as the game opens with a disclaimer that its events are fictional: While a German Resistance did exist, they never engaged in any sort of en-mass armed uprising against the Germans or Soviets during the final days of the war, were fairly disorganized, and mostly engaged in non-violent resistance aside from a few assassination attempts on Hitler. Martin Ludwig Bormann's cause of death (The target of the set of missions) is unknown in reality, while his body was found, how exactly he died is unknown, though the game's depiction (Assassinated before he can defect to the Soviets) seems fairly unlikely with either suicide or being killed by the Soviets being more likely. | |

Improperly Placed Firearms | |
| Sniper Elite (Video Game) / int_6cb4cb70 | comment |
Improperly Placed Firearms: For some reason, it's easy to find German soldiers who use Soviet SVT-40 rifles for their riflemen and the Red Army/NKVD soldiers fielding Gewehr 43 rifles, Luger pistols, and MG 42 machine guns, despite them not being the standard firearms for each faction. There is a little bit of justification for the former. As seen in the Real Life section of this trope, the mass amount of Soviet firearms that the Nazi forces collected in the early stages of the war eventually contributed to this trope (it's easy to find stories about German forces that were equipped with Soviet weapons to defend Berlin, as Germany was running out of weapons due to the destruction of its weapon industries). For the latter, it's probably for game balancing for the first two cases. Probably because the gun is just that good, even the NKVD forces are using MG 42 guns despite it not being their standard machine (their standard is the DP machine gun). | |

Bottomless Magazines: Played straight for Non-Player Character enemies and averted with you. Interestingly, whenever you loot the corpse of any enemy, they've usually got less than ten rounds left in their weapons, whether they ever fired at you or not. | |

Acceptable Breaks from Reality | |
| Sniper Elite (Video Game) / int_b6e1d40b | comment |
Acceptable Breaks from Reality: Obviously a guy with a .30-cal rifle can't really destroy a tank by shooting its gas cap. However, it is sufficiently difficult to pull off in-game, especially without first making a ranging shot (or a miss) that alerts the tank—and its big-ass gun—to your presence that doing so counts as a Moment of Awesome. | |

Boom, Headshot!: The guaranteed kill. Plus, since you are a sniper, you'll get more fame points for headshots at range. Even better, when the bullet hits home there is a spray of blood and an entry and exit wound. | |

Harder Than Hard | |
| Sniper Elite (Video Game) / int_c513249 | comment |
Harder Than Hard: Sniper Elite mode. Between realistic damage and greatly increased difficulty aiming your precious rifle, fulfilling your mission objectives is easy compared to just staying alive. Even Cadet mode is pretty tough if you don't take the game's unique tactical viewpoint to heart and play it like any other World War II shooter game at the time. | |

Just a Stupid Accent: The German freedom fighters have over-the-top German accents. And that's the least problem with their voice acting. Averted with enemies in missions, who speak either German or Russian as appropriate. | |

Hand Guns: Enemy snipers, riflemen, and officers all have handguns and will use them instead of another weapon. The enemy snipers and officers will use the pistol if you start to close on them quickly and they can't open the distance fast enough. | |

Historical In-Joke: The primary objective of the first mission is to prevent the defection of Martin Bormann, Hitler's secretary, to the Soviets by assassinating him. Said target is historically one of the few V.I.P.s' in Berlin whose fate was a mystery for years until his shattered skeleton was dug up in 1965. | |

Fake Difficulty | |
| Sniper Elite (Video Game) / int_e4e86215 | comment |
Fake Difficulty: A handful of sections spawn in alerted soldiers who instantly know where you are and rush you regardless of where you actually are. Enemies will also sometimes have absurd accuracy with their guns, easily shooting you at far sniper range with submachine guns. (Which is more likely on higher difficulties) Although thankfully, these hits barely cause damage to you if they're still far away and will only be lethal to you if you're in close range with them. | |

| Sniper Elite (Video Game) / int_e663d3ef | comment |
Only a Flesh Wound: You can shoot enemies in the arms and legs and they will limp and hold their arms. You can also wound them with a nonlethal chest shot and they will roll around on the ground in pain. However, there are times when shooting them in the chest will do nothing and they keep running around as if nothing happened. | |

No "Arc" in "Archery": Averted. Unless you customize the difficulty to ignore gravity, you'll almost always have to aim above an enemy to hit them at long range. Get used to using the notches on that scope. | |

Video Game Cruelty Potential | |
| Sniper Elite (Video Game) / int_f87c42d4 | comment |
Video Game Cruelty Potential: Shoot to wound. Then shoot (ideally, shoot to wound) anyone who comes to help the wounded man as he cries out for help. He'll die without treatment after a few minutes, and you can just sit there and watch, or practice your grenade-lobbing skills, or run a good distance away and shoot him with the sniper rifle for long-distance kill points. This can be a very useful method if you're facing lots of enemies in cover and need to even the odds. War Is Hell. | |

Shown Their Work: Yes, unlike other states at the time, Soviet female snipers did enlist en masse during the war and was sent to multiple fronts, including the one in the Battle of Berlin. As such, it is no wonder that at some point, you'll have to deal with Soviet female snipers during certain points in the game. | |
