The Sniper Rifle, also known as the MK110, is a Tier II primary weapon, in World War Z.

For classes in Multiplayer, it is the default starting primary weapon of the Phantom.

Overview

The Sniper Rifle is a semi-automatic weapon with excellent range. The Sniper Rifle is fantastically precise and can penetrate enemies to hit other targets behind them. The high damage of its bullets can make it deadly at close range as well. As expected, a unique scoping feature is part of the Sniper Rifle that grants superior aim to its shooter. When aiming down sights, you will aim through the lens of the scope with the option of zooming in a bit more to get a better shot on targets, preferably those that are further away.

A suppressor upgrade to make the gun silent can be unlocked at level 5. The cosmetic suppressor add-on is available for all branches of the skin collection.

Unique Versions

Extreme Version

A special version of the Sniper Rifle can be unlocked by completing every Co-op Campaign chapter in New York, Jerusalem, Moscow, and Tokyo on Extreme difficulty. It comes in the form of a custom skin and the unique "Headhunter" perk. The custom skin can be equipped regardless of the weapon's current level.
