Rebellion has lifted the lid on Sniper Elite VR: Winter Warrior, a Meta Quest-based game that puts players in the immersive, first-person perspective of an Italian resistance soldier during the Second World War. It reportedly boasts ‘hyper immersive gunplay’ and multiple modes that promise to keep budding snipers entertained for hours on end.

Sniper Elite 5, the latest game in the core franchise, was released around a year and a half ago to a relatively positive reception. It hasn’t ever been the biggest seller, but it’s a top-tier title for those that like to play a little strategically – and pop Nazi testicles in X-ray killcams, of course.
Earlier today, Rebellion uploaded a one-minute trailer showcasing Sniper Elite VR: Winter Warrior:
It boasts several key features, as outlined by the long-time developer of this perfect franchise for sniper enthusiasts:
- Riveting Campaign
- Hyper immersive gunplay
- Sniper Hunt (a side mode) pits you against expert Nazi sharpshooters
- Hold the line in Last Stand (another side mode) against ever-increasing waves of enemies
- Experience the brutality of X-Ray Kill Cam in VR
- Feel those bullets hit with ProTubeVR and bHaptics support
It’s not going to win awards, but it looks entertaining enough for those who want to slay World War II’s German oppressors with reckless abandon.
Sniper Elite VR: Winter Warrior releases November 30th on Meta Quest 2, 3, and Pro.
