Operation: Longshot places elite two-person sniper teams deep within the Greyline Exclusion Zone. Their mission: locate and record hidden objective codes, retrieve critical physical objectives, and eliminate rival operatives—all while remaining undetected.
Up to 20 sniper teams will compete in a series of timed rounds, with potentially up to 50 unique objectives available throughout the day. Points are earned through confirmed eliminations, intel collection, and successful extractions. The team with the highest score at the end of the event is declared the winner.
Hidden among them, however, operates a rogue lone sniper—identity unknown, allegiance unclear. This operative is a wildcard, capable of disrupting teams, ambushing operatives, and altering the course of the mission.
