A steady hand, an unflinching gaze and a deep breath: all of these are necessary to securing the coveted $200 NS marksmanship award! Unfortunately, some of us are horribly inaccurate when aiming with our SAR-21s. To help you develop a steady aim, here are some of the best shooting games to practise your NS marksman skills and help you go from bobo to pro.
\nBefore we continue with our selected games, you might want to take note of the below: <\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. These shooting games contain realistic human targets, so you don\u2019t have to deal with teleporting enemies like in <\/span>Overwatch<\/span><\/i> or zombies hordes in <\/span>Left 4 Dead<\/span><\/i>. <\/span><\/li>\n
  2. The games listed here don\u2019t have aim assist so Call Of Duty<\/em> doesn\u2019t qualify as the series is generous with inaccuracy.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Best Shooting Games To Improve Your NS Marksmanship Skills<\/span><\/h2>\n

    1. Tom Clancy\u2019s Rainbow Six Siege<\/span><\/h2>\n

    Platform: PS4, Xbox One, PC<\/span>
    \nDespite its steep learning curve, <\/span>Rainbow Six Siege<\/b><\/a> is considered one of the best shooting games because of regular content updates and slow-paced tactical gameplay. Each match pits two teams of five operators against each other in a playground of destroyable floors, walls and ceilings!<\/span><\/p>\n

    The charm of the game lies in how each operator has specific perks, ranging from seeing enemy heartbeats through walls to tearing down that same wall with a sledgehammer! As you strategise with teammates and cover blind spots, your marksman skills will be stretched. Matches will go down to the wire and any lapse in accuracy or concentration will result in death.<\/span><\/p>\n

    2. Hitman Sniper<\/span><\/h2>\n

    Platform: Android, iOS<\/span>
    \nToday\u2019s mobile game market is flooded with bland shooting games that’ll have you repeating the same objective over and over. Thankfully, <\/span>Hitman Sniper<\/b> stands out from the crowd by offering variety and polish, making each of the 150 missions fun and engaging.<\/span><\/p>\n

    While you could just snipe your primary target, where\u2019s the fun in that? There are creative methods to eliminate your target, from making kills look like accidents to creating distractions by raising car alarms. Your efforts are rewarded with points you can use to customise your rifle, making it even deadlier with more penetrative power and explosive ammunition.<\/span><\/p>\n

    3. Day Of Infamy<\/span><\/h2>\n

    Platforms: PC, Mac<\/span>
    \nSet during World War II, you\u2019ll definitely struggle with <\/span>Day Of Infamy<\/b>\u2019s ancient guns and lack of handholding. Such hardcore shooting games attempt to accurately recreate the horrors of war by going for complete immersion! This includes removing modern conveniences like target reticles and ammunition counters while intentionally allowing clunky movement and friendly fire.<\/span><\/p>\n

    You\u2019ll also discover that bullets don\u2019t land where they\u2019re supposed to and that teamwork is essential or you\u2019ll end up killing each other as you stumble through the battlefield. Not meant for the faint hearted, your marksman skills will be truly tested here! Learn to account for bullet drop and attempt to differentiate between friends and foes.<\/span><\/p>\n

    4. PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds (PUBG)<\/span><\/h2>\n

    Platforms: PC, Mac, Android, iOS<\/span>
    \nTaking the gaming world by storm, <\/span>PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds<\/b> continues to be popular among casual and hardcore gamers as one of the first shooting games to offer a refined Battle Royale experience. Tired of the campers who see you coming without ever exposing themselves? Why not try out the First-Person-Perspective (FPP) mode!<\/span><\/p>\n

    Without the ability to peek around corners or leverage on the wide Field-of-View that a third person perspective provides, FPP results in more aggressive player behaviour. Also, your marksman skills will be tested as you\u2019re forced to focus on winning fights through gun play rather than turtling behind cover.<\/span>

    5. Sniper Elite 4<\/span><\/h2>\n

    Platforms: PS4, Xbox One, PC<\/span>
    \n    Sniper Elite 4<\/b><\/a> puts you in the shoes of an expert sniper, working to dismantle the Nazi regime. Shooting games like Sniper Elite 4 gloriously celebrate each kill with the in-game killcam! It follows the path of your bullet and provides a satisfying x-ray shot of the bullet shredding through your target.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Before you pull the trigger, you\u2019ll have to take into account how long you\u2019re holding your breath and the distance your bullet travels. If you think that\u2019s easy, ramp up the difficulty with Authentic difficulty! The game throws more hurdles your way by removing the training wheels of aim assistance and fully implementing ballistic physics so wind and gravity effects are on full display.<\/span><\/p>\n

    6. Aim Hero<\/span><\/h2>\n

    Platforms: PC<\/span>
    \nLooking for shooting games that focus solely on honing your NS marksman skills at the shooting range? <\/span>Aim Hero<\/b> strips away the bells and whistles of narratives and graphics to deliver a no-frills experience. Drills range from strafing targets that train the steadiness of your hand to reflex aim training that allows you to practise snapping your aim to a target.<\/span><\/p>\n

    7. Battlefield 4<\/span><\/h2>\n

    Platforms: PS4, Xbox One, PC<\/span>
    \nDid you know that popular multiplayer shooting games like <\/span>    Battlefield 4<\/b><\/a> feature Singapore weaponry?
