Sniper Elite 4 for PC, PS4 and XONE is the fourth installment of the popular first-person tactical shooters in which we assume the role of a trained sniper who fights on different fronts of the World War II. The production was developed by Rebellion – a British studio. Contrary to many contemporary titles in the genre, the Sniper Elite series puts a much greater emphasis on realistic recreation of bullet trajectory and behavior. The first game in the franchise, released in 2005, took us to the besieged Berlin right before the end of the war. In the 2012 Sniper Elite V2, the players returned to the capital of the Third Reich, but the developers expanded on the gameplay systems and modernized the formula of the original. Sniper Elite III: Afrika from 2014 allowed us to fight Germans in the North Africa. In 2016, Rebellion announced that the series sold over 10 million copies worldwide.

Plot

In Sniper Elite 4, we assume the role of Karl Fairburne, the protagonist of the previous installments of the series, who is sent from North Africa to the Apennine Peninsula. Alongside the Italian resistance movement, he is trying to help Allies who are pushing north against the fiercely resisting Germans.

Polygon: 6.5 / 10 by Matt Paprocki

With its inconsequential story and addiction to inane splatter kills, Rebellion's Sniper Elite 4 doesn't subvert expectations. It doesn't have to necessarily: The appeal of shooting digital Nazis may never stagnate, and increasing the scale of each stage means more Nazis to kill and an increased potential for strategy. But a bigger scope makes the inherent problems more visible.
