The Sniper Elite Franchise Has Four New Projects Going

First off, this game is badass, and with their inclusion of the X-Ray mechanic, it's like the Mortal Kombat of shooters. You can watch your bullet pierce right on through skin, blood, bone and guts, and blast brains onto the wall behind any given Nazi, and if that isn't America, I don't know what the hell is. In short, we love this series round here, and Rebellion just announced multiple Sniper Elite projects, including a follow-up to the BAFTA-nominated Sniper Elite 4, much to our collective glee.



In a 'Sniper Elite Development Update' video prepared specially for fans of the series, Rebellion CEO and Co-Founder Jason Kingsley OBE confirmed that four Sniper Elite projects are currently in development. Here they are, in some particular order:

·     Sniper Elite V2 Remastered will bring 1945 Berlin to current platforms with stunning new visuals and a host of new features.
·     Sniper Elite 3 Ultimate Edition on Switch introduces Karl's breathtaking North African adventure to a Nintendo platform for the first time ever.
·     A new, standalone Sniper Elite game for VR devices is being developed in partnership with independent British studio Just Add Water, known for their work on the Oddworld and Gravity Crash series.

·      The next major title in the Sniper Elite series, following in the footsteps of the widely acclaimed Sniper Elite 4, is being worked on now.



This is fine news, just fine news all around. Sniper Elite V2 Remastered launches on PS4, Xbox One, PC and Nintendo Switch in 2019, and you know you're itching to get back to Berlin and get it on in World War 2, especially since they are enhancing the graphics, giving you that 4K resolution and HDR display.

Sniper Elite 3 Ultimate Edition is also coming to the Switch in 2019, and will be a "feature-complete experience" including all the additional content ever released for the game, and Switch-exclusive local wireless multiplayer and motion controls. Shooting Nazis in the nethers has never been so fulfilling, I promise you that.
