Sniper Elite 5 is launching tomorrow on most major platforms, and it’s Australian Distributor have organised a unique giveaway. Five Star Games have teamed up with EB Games to launch the Dial-A-Sniper Hotline. This 1800-number gives fans the chance to score one of 100 physical copies of Sniper Elite 5 that have been scattered across Australia.
How it works is you call the Dial-A-Sniper Hotline at 1800 ELITE5 (1800 354 835) between 8AM-8PM AEST on Thursday May 26 and Friday May 27. From there you’ll receive instructions on how you can find copies of Sniper Elite 5 for either Playstation 5, Playstation 4, Xbox Series X or Xbox One. Eager snipers will have until Monday May 30 to collect their free copy.
Managing director and chief head-hunter at Five Star Games, Darren MacBeth, says of the hotline: “The new Sniper Elite 5 introduces the idea of Invasion Hotlines – phones found in-game which can be used to help locate the enemy – and we thought ‘what better way to bring this game to life in the real world than to manifest the hotlines themselves!’ The Sniper Elite franchise sells extremely well in Australia and we’re stoked to have EB Games join the fray with us to help confirm what we already knew: This is the best entry to the Sniper Elite series yet.”
Sniper Elite 5 launches on May 26 for Playstation 5, Playstation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One and Steam.
