The Best Sniper Elite Game I've yet to play
This game is just awesome! There are by now a LOT of entries in the Sniper Elite series and frankly, I feel some of them are somewhat rehashing the same old shit and slightly redundant offering only minimal mechanical improvements in slightly better engines...

This game is just awesome! There are by now a LOT of entries in the Sniper Elite series and frankly, I feel some of them are somewhat rehashing the same old shit and slightly redundant offering only minimal mechanical improvements in slightly better engines... ZAT spins this series on it's head. A game that was published sometime between Sniper Elite 3 and Sniper Elite 4, I had never been in the right mood to give it a go, but if you're in the mood to tackle on 20+ hours of Nazi Zombie killing with one Boom! Headshot! after another, there is really little else that has to offer what this game does: A garish and nightmarish horror-themed campaign with spooky and creepy maps. The bullet time chase cams in this are the best in the series because of how theatrical they get. Blood falling from the sky, lightning strikes, all sorts of heavy metal type imagery. It's strangely hypnotic and satisfying.
Three campaigns, each a roughly 7-8 hour experience. By the time it was all over I had more than enough. Some of these enemy concepts are great. You fight everything from skeletons to Nazi Necromancers. The weapons in it are also pretty satisfying as you'll be doing both long distance and close up in work, lay traps, and just engaging in the maps in ways that I never quite found myself doing in the rest of the conventional series.
OK, maybe it's not the best game in the series, but there's honestly nothing else like this (Other than the newer game, Zombie Army 4: Dead War) but it was hands down the most fun I had with the Sniper Elite series. A really fun game to play on desktop mode in a VR headset, and it support co-op. It's also got the classic endless horde survival mode similar to COD that made this nonsense popular.
ZAT wins an easy five out of five zombies from me🧟♂️🧟♂️🧟♂️🧟♂️🧟♂️
