But, if you went full Rambo and slugged it out to the end barely surviving each encounter due to clumsy, noisy, fumbling around, then you have a long way to go before truly mastering the game.Īlmost immediately upon booting the game, I was aware of a granular clarity and resolution that wouldn't have been possible in 2012, and especially not in a handheld experience it is truly a portable visual pleasure. If you had invested in reconnaissance more, thoroughly examined each building and sought out enemy vantage points, you would have easily found those elusive glistening ingots that lay hidden, and you would have popped off those glass bottles mid-mission with some incredible pixel perfect accuracy under the cover of the masking sounds of war-time explosions in one sitting and maxed out your meta scores. By the end of the first mission you hear Karl exclaim 'Four to go', and get a feeling that you have a hell of a lot more to do and see.

It's like a universal evil, a common enemy that anyone can join in and fight against without thinking, and as a result the Sniper Elite and Zombie Army series have always had this grip on me in a way that similar alternatives such as Sniper Ghost Warrior series just cannot compete with.

I don't know if it's just me, but games that have you obliterating evil forces such as the Nazis really grounds things in a way I can really get on board with, and every ounce of me wants to see it through and battle tooth and nail until the end. It's utterly compelling and frighteningly realistic, as it's artistically based on the real events of World War II. Before and after each mission you are treated to footage, a narration, and the unwavering confidence that our protagonist, Karl Fairburne, exudes. You begin with a tutorial-esqe mission to prevent any V2 rocket scientists being snaffled up by the encroaching Red Army as Hitler's war machine attempts to retreat back across Europe. Including settings such as kill tally, challenge mode, in-game achievements, and both online and local coop/multiplayer, this game is a veritable feast of replayable fun, shaping the package into one irresistible purchase. This iteration's unique selling points are: remastered visuals, new playable characters, a new frame-by-frame photo mode, and all available DLC, from the 2012 original, including several new weapons and the Landwehr Canal and St Pierre bonus missions.įrom the second you boot up this sharpshooting celebration of all things ballistic, you will find masses of options and modes to get your trigger finger itching. Updating an already-outstanding game and furthermore, bringing it to a modern portable console, is a mark of sheer genius.

Tactical Third Person Shooters are relatively few and far between on any console, so Rebellion's act of remastering one of my all-time favorite franchises seems like a smart decision.
