This guide is for Mission 3: SonderzÃ¼ge Sabotage, of Sniper Elite: Resistance, the newest entry into the famous sniping franchise. Taking place at the same time as the events of Sniper Elite 5, you play the role of Captain Harry Hawker, a British sniper who’s working with the French resistance to stop the latest Nazi Wunderwaffe.

Throughout the games campaign, you’ll collect a range of collectibles to upgrade your weapons. There’s also lore, intel, and extra story beats to find in the game. Not to mention the new ‘propaganda missions’ which present you with extra missions.

Collectible types

For completionists and achievement / trophy hunters, there’s plenty to go at, with 135 collectibles spread across eight of the nine missions in the game. These include:

Personal letters – open envelopes with letters that are scattered throughout the levels, sometimes these are mission related. You’ll unlock the “Pen Pal” achievement for finding 35 of these.
Classified documents – usually blue documents with the Eagle emblem emblazoned on it, sometimes these are mission related. You’ll unlock the “Top Secret” achievement for finding 35 of these.
Hidden items – different collectibles that can be mission related (propaganda posters count as a hidden item). You’ll unlock the “Treasure Hunter” achievement for finding 22 of these.
Dead-eye targets – these are stone eagle statues that sit in different places across the levels, shoot them down. You’ll unlock the “Spread Your Wings” achievement for destroying 21 of these.
Workbenches – finding them gives you new customisation options for your weapons. Use them to tinker and upgrade your loadout. You’ll unlock the “Innovator” achievement for finding 22 of these.
Propaganda posters – find these to unlock a new propaganda mission to tackle from the main menu.
Kill List Targets (not a collectible but there are further unlocks to be had) – these are high value targets on the map. Killing them with a specific method or weapon will grant you a new unlock. You’ll need the extra weapons to unlock the “Master at Arms” achievement for becoming the master of each weapon.
