{{:SRS99 series/Gameplay|In multiplayer, the SRS99 can be highly effective at close range in the hands of a skilled operator, as the highly damaging round is just as powerful at close range; a single round followed by a melee strike will kill a hostile almost instantly.|Rounds fired by the SRS99 leave a trail that could be traced back to the sniper's location.}}

The Sniper Rifle is a [[Precision weapon|precision]] [[power weapon]], which fires highly damaging projectiles at near instantaneous speeds. It features two levels of zoom, and a magazine of 4 rounds. This makes it a powerhouse at long ranges, capable of killing most enemies, including enemy players in multiplayer, with one headshot, and outranging other weapons like the [[Battle Rifle]] significantly. To compensate for its power, it is a relatively rare weapon, and ammo for it is difficult to find.
