Rebellion has zoomed and tagged the Sniper Elite 5 update 1.17 patch notes for your viewing pleasure, and this one is a whopper, as it’s part of the company’s 30th anniversary celebrations and comes with a free content pack.
Rebellion is turning 30! To celebrate this momentous milestone we’re gifting our incredible Sniper Elite 5 Community a FREE content pack alongside the final Season Pass One update.
Available now, the FREE Airborne Elite Pack pays tribute to Rebellion’s British heritage and includes the iconic British Paratrooper character skin, the much-requested Lee No. 4 bolt-action rifle and a Union Jack weapon skin for the Welrod pistol. Additionally, the final content for Season Pass One, including a thrilling mission called Conqueror, is also available now as is a new Survival Map called Tide of War, which is available for free to all players. Watch the trailer:

Introduction from Flix InteractiveHello from the Sniper Elite team at Flix Interactive!
If you’ve played Landing Force, the first DLC mission included in the Sniper Elite 5 Season Pass, you have hopefully already enjoyed content created by our Sniper Elite team. Since then, we’ve been working hard alongside Rebellion and it’s a pleasure to introduce the latest and final DLC mission for Sniper Elite 5 Season Pass One, Conqueror.
It is always a privilege for our team at Flix Interactive to work with Rebellion (and the wonderful Rebellion community!) and we would like to wish the entire team a very happy 30th anniversary. Here’s to another 30!
Included in this pack:
Conqueror Mission Pack
Drilling Shotgun Weapon Pack
Oak Leaf Paint Weapon Skins
Tide of War Survival Map
Blue Viper shoots her Thompson SMG on the new Tide of War Survivor map. Bodies of the recently deceased lay nearby.
Playable in both single player and co-op the new free Survival Map called ‘Tide of War’ is also available now to all players. Taking players back to the beachhead town of Colline-Sur-Mer, Tide of War presents an ever-changing challenge as they fight on wide open sands and sea front, through narrow twisting streets and inland into open fields.
The environment can be used to the players advantage to flank enemy forces but beware as it can also work against you. The players will need to use all their stealth, sniping and combat skills to survive wave after wave of oncoming Nazi forces and vehicles.
