On the other hand, if you've never played the original but enjoyed the more recent games, well, you've got a decision to make. On console, however, it's a little less clear cut, and it's hard to argue a case for the more expensive V2 Remastered when you can get Sniper Elite 4 for less.

The upgrade on PC is very competitively priced and we'd have no issues spending the money on an upgrade that brings with it a bunch of additional content beyond the main campaign. That's not to say that's it not worth making a return, though. It's not a game-ruining flaw by any means, but the twisting yet ultimately linear city setting is less interesting to explore.
That being the case, returning to the bedraggled streets of 1945-Berlin put into focus for us just how far Rebellion has come when it comes to building sandbox levels for Sniper Elite. In the North African setting of the third game, and in Italy in the fourth, the maps are significantly bigger than they are in V2, and those games were all the better for the shift in scale.

For starters, the close-quarters combat has gone up a gear in the last seven years, and while it's certainly not the optimal way to play, much was done to improve the experience when you have to put the rifle away to deal with a more direct attack.Īnother area where the series has changed is the maps that you explore. Since then we've been treated to two more mainline entries in the series, with each one refining the gameplay in a number of ways. When we reviewed the original Sniper Elite V2 back in 2012 we enjoyed the visceral combat and long-range gunplay, but the low-quality enemy AI and clunky close-quarters combat held it back. While we missed the first game, we've played them all since V2 and every time a new one comes around you can be reasonably assured that it's going to give you a good time as you to sneak around the battlefields of WW2 with your trusty sniper rifle in-hand. We've grown quite fond of the Sniper Elite series over the years.
