Alright, folks, grab your scopes and settle in. We’ve got some exciting news coming from the front lines of the Sniper Elite series. Rebellion has just announced that Sniper Elite: Resistance will use Denuvo anti-tamper tech when it launches on PC on January 30th, 2025. Yes, I know, some gamers have mixed feelings about that tech.
Now, if you’re wondering what this new addition is all about, let me break it down for you. The game’s storyline parallels Sniper Elite 5, which means we’ll be back in those shadowy alleys with our trusty sniper rifles. Players will step into the shoes of Harry Hawker, a Special Operations Executive agent taking charge for the first time as he uncovers an insidious new Wunderwaffe. It sounds like quite the adventure!
The game sticks with its beloved third-person perspective while promising to retain the tactical sniping and stealth mechanics that fans adore. If you’ve played any of its predecessors, you know how satisfying it feels to set up your shot just right, like a cat waiting patiently for its prey (minus the whole furball thing).
As for what you’ll need to run this beauty? Here are the preliminary minimum specs:
Sniper Elite: Resistance Preliminary PC Requirements
Minimum:
- Requires a 64-bit processor and operating system
- OS: Windows 10 or later
- Processor: Intel CPU Core i5-9400f or equivalent

As for the recommended PC specs requirements, we still do not have the exact details shared.
If you’re still hanging onto your aging rig from yesteryear, now might be a good time to consider an upgrade because hitting these specs is essential if you want to join in on the action.
I should mention that Sniper Elite 5 is also still using Denuvo, so don’t hold your breath waiting for Rebellion to ditch it anytime soon. It’s unfortunate, but sometimes, we must take one step back before we can leap into hours of gaming bliss! What do you think? Are you excited about stepping back into Sniper Elite’s world or apprehensive about Denuvo? Let me know!
