Trivia
- At the moment the Sydney Sleeper is capable of hitting multiple targets with one shot, unlike the original one. If the user fires a fully charged shot at an enemy player while another opponent is standing closely behind the intended target, the second opponent will also be hit with the shot. Thus allowing a fully charged Sniper to possibly take out a Medic combo with 1 fully charged, well placed shot. This piercing effect is able to pierce through more than 12 players.
- 'Template:W' is the capital of New South Wales, Australia and contrary to popular belief, not the capital of Australia as a whole, that crown belongs to Template:W.
- Even though it supposedly shoots darts, the Sydney Sleeper is a hitscan weapon.
- This is the second primary weapon to change a cosmetic feature on the player (i.e. the dart pack on Snipers chest) after the Huntsman.
- Originally, the Sniper Rifle would randomly Crit when it would bodyshot. The Sydney Sleeper, can now also randomly Crit when a bodyshot (or even headshot) is made.
