Rough Landing also includes two new weapons, the Mosin-Nagant rifle and Sjögren shotgun.

Set deep in a forest and featuring a cramped mine shaft, expect plenty of close quarters combat which will test your skills. Karl’s mission is to find the hidden pilots and retrieve the intelligence. Allied airmen, including a high-ranking officer with critical intelligence, have been shot down over a dense woodland and are now being hunted by Nazi troops. The House of the Dead: Remake on Nintendo Switch is at No.14, Kao the Kangaroo is at No.26, and My Little Pony: A Maretime Bay Adventure is at No.31.Season Pass Two kicks off with the release of an amazing new mission called Rough Landing. Outside of Sniper Elite 5, there were some other new releases in the Top 40. This is due to a promotional offer on the game at Amazon. The biggest Switch rise was New Super Mario Bros U Deluxe, which is up eight places to No.13 after a 119% sales jump. In the Top Ten, Mario Kart 8: Deluxe sales rose 19%, Pokémon Legends: Arceus sales are up 21%, Minecraft (Switch) sales increased 2%, and Animal Crossing: New Horizons sales improved 17%. It wasn't just PS5 games that sold well this week, with Nintendo Switch titles also seeing rises across the board. Nintendo Switch Sports is down to No.3 after a mild 1% drop in sales week-on-week. The highest riser this week is also a PS5 game: Gran Turismo 7, which is up five places to No.5 after a 109% sales bump. The game continues to sell strongly alongside PS5 hardware.

Last week's No.1, Horizon Forbidden West, drops to No.2 this week after a 33% slide in sales. Also, Xbox game sales tend to be more digital than physical compared with PlayStation, partially because of the Xbox Series S console, which doesn't include a disc drive (the Xbox Series S is currently the best-selling Xbox in the UK). This might be due to the result of the game's inclusion in the Xbox Game Pass subscription service. Sniper Elite 5 sold mostly on PlayStation in physical form.

Of course, the download market has accelerated significantly since 2017 and download data is not included (it arrives later in the week), so this isn't an indicator of the game's overall performance. The game didn't need to sell big numbers to achieve the result, and launch physical sales are 64% lower than Sniper Elite 4, which released in February 2017 (when it reached No.2). Rebellion's Sniper Elite 5 claims No.1 in the UK boxed charts, according to the latest GfK figures.
