The Snipers are the type of enemy variant of the Soldier in the Wolfenstein: Youngblood. They are primarily armed with Bombenschuss rifles and wear heavy armour that resembles that of the Fire Trooper from the 1960s.

Overview

As opposed to the relatively weak Marksman soldiers of the late 1940s, the Wehrmacht snipers of the 1980s are dressed in outfits reminiscent of the heavy armor used by elite soldiers of the Reich in 1961. Complementing their use of the Bombenschuss is an advanced tactical visor, an upgraded version of the ocular masks used by Marksmen from the 1940s and 1960s.

Trivia

  • The Sniper's visor is a callout to Cyberpunk classics such as Ghost In The Shell.
