The Sydney Sleeper is an unlockable primary weapon for the Sniper class. It appears to be a tranquilizer rifle outfitted with a long scope and decorated with feathers. The Sniper will also carry darts in his breast pocket when it is equipped.

This weapon is fairly similar to the Sniper Rifle; players can fire either plainly or through using the scope, it deals identical damage to the default weapon, and shots can be charged up whilst utilizing the scope. Upon reaching over 50% charge whilst scoped, a flashing Jarate icon will appear next to the charge meter, indicating that the shot will inflict Jarate on the target for 8 seconds. In return, this weapon lacks the ability to deal Critical hits on Headshots. Kills made via headshot will register with the associated kill icon, but will not count as a Critical hit.
