Intro
Sniper Elite: Zombie Army is the sibling of Sniper Elite: Nazi Zombie Army that nobody asked for, but we’re stuck with it here in Germany, so we have to accept it. Going for 100% in this game is a big challenge, mostly because the player base is very low, especially today, after so many years (it was low at launch, so imagine how it is now). This guide is for those stuck with this version of the game in their library, wanting to 100% it.

You’ll need a full party to get through the entire game on the highest difficulty. You can either try to go for all the achievements during that party playthrough, but what I suggest you do, and what this guide will focus on, is going through two playthroughs. One in single-player, on the easiest difficulty, focusing on all the achievements you can get solo. Then a second playthrough on the highest difficulty with the group you’ll need to find (if you don’t already have friends playing the game).

Enjoy, and good luck!
Solo Achievements
Go on and start the game in Single Player, with the Difficulty: Cadet.
You will mostly be focusing on the following two achievements:

Bottles of Blood / Zombie Army Gold
Find and shoot all the bottles of blood / Collect all Gold Bars
I will provide a video for each chapter with the locations. After collecting/shooting them all, the achievements will pop.

But you should also keep in mind the following achievements to get them out of the way ASAP.

Groovy! / ..My BOOMSTICK!
Pick up a shotgun / Kill any 100 enemy with the shotgun
The descriptions are self-explanatory.

Like a drunk who's lost a bet.
Kill 20 enemies as they revive
The description is self-explanatory.

Explosive Personality!
Kill a suicide grunt by hitting his grenade
Not as hard as it sounds.

You got rid of those stiffs yet?
Kill 100 skeletons with explosives
The description is self-explanatory.


Chapter 1: Village of the Dead
Bottles of Blood & Gold Bars Video here.

The Preacher says BOOM!
Pick up the Preacher
This can be obtained in several places throughout the game, but do it now to get it out of the way.
Here’s a video with all the Preacher locations, the first one is for this first chapter.


Chapter 2: Cathedral of Resurrection
Bottles of Blood & Gold Bars Video here.

Resurrect this!
Kill the Occult General
This achievement will pop up after defeating the last boss. If I am correct, you must be the one landing the final blow. While playing in co-op, I did not receive the achievement at first, either because somebody else landed the last shot, or it just bugged for me.

From here on, just beat the game while also collecting the gold bars, shooting the bottles, and focusing on the achievements I mentioned at the start.
Multiplayer Achievements
Now comes the part where you need 3 other people.

The following achievements will get unlocked as soon as you beat the respective chapter while being in a full party. I highly suggest you and your friends do the whole game in one go, on Sniper Elite Difficulty (unsure if Enemy Setup matters. If I remember right, I used x1 and it worked, but I’m not fully sure, sorry), it’s not that long, because it is possible that the last achievement (Send... more... Paramedics...), which requires Sniper Elite difficulty, might also require you to fully beat it with the same people, in one go (not entirely sure).

Don't mention the Z word! / Resurrection Day / Play it Thule / The pen is mightier than the sidearm / No more room in hell / Send...more...Paramedics..
Successfully complete Chapter 1 / 2 / 3 / 4 / 5 / All Chapters with 4 players / on Elite Difficulty

I have given them the last Reichs. / They're all messed up / I ran it under a cold tap.
Get at least 10 / 15 / 20 for 1 explosive kill in 4 player co-op
Literally the worst achievement(s) in the game. Your objective is to get 20 zombies killed with a single explosive. I don't fully remember how I got this, only that it was a huge struggle. In the meantime, I found a guide that should make it easier. I suggest you try it out! You can find it here.

The following achievements do not require a full party or a certain difficulty, so if, after you're done with the hard full-party achievements, you haven’t obtained these automatically, you can grind them now. For me, it worked getting them in co-op, even when I was alone in the group, hopefully that wasn’t just a “me” thing, and it works for everybody as well. Also, make sure you use Cadet difficulty for the easiest runs.

Your blood pressure is zero over zero.
Kill 20 Snipers in co-op
The description is self-explanatory.

Soul survivor
Kick 50 enemies down in co-op
The description is self-explanatory.

You’ve got red on you
Kill 2000 enemy grunts in co-op
The description is self-explanatory.

Good, bad, I'm the guy with the gun.
Kill 20 Elites in co-op
The description is self-explanatory.
Miscellaneous Achievements
Now, the clean-up part! These are achievements you should have already unlocked by the time you’ve finished both playthroughs. If not, now is the time to do them, I guess. ^^

We got this by the ass!
Kill 500 enemy grunts
As the description says, this achievement should pop as soon as you killed the 500th "grunt".

I’m coming to get you Barbara!
Kill 1000 enemies
As the description says, this achievement should unlock once you kill your 1000th enemy.

New Achievement
New Achievement
This one I am not sure what really unlocks it, I couldn't find information anywhere. I got it automatically after launching the game. What I suspect it is though, looking at the art, the original game (Sniper Elite: Nazi Zombie Army) has an achievement using the same art picture, called "Have you come in contact with...the infected?" with the description "Own 2 Nazi Zombie Army games", so my guess is this is the requirement for this achievement, buying/owning the second game (Sniper Elite: Zombie Army 2). But, again, that's only assumption, I can't be sure.

I will not negotiate with the Undead
Kill 5000 enemies
Yeah... have fun with this one! :D



Good Luck!
I hope this guide has been helpful to you. Have fun, and good luck! ^^
