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 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.
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.
Sniper Elite 4 for PC, PS4 and XONE expands the solutions of Sniper Elite III: Afrika. Our task is to eliminate subsequent targets as efficiently as possible. The players have complete freedom in choosing whether to eliminate them from afar or otherwise. The vast sandbox levels let us be creative in this respect. While moving, we have to be wary of German patrols as well as military installations and vehicles. The maps depict Nazi fortresses, picturesque Italian towns, forests, and monasteries. When taking a shot, we have to consider not only the enemy’ position but also such factors as the speed and direction of the wind as well as, for example, the gravity impact on the bullet’s trajectory covering the given distance.
The story campaign can be played either solo or in cooperation mode for two players. The game also offers multiplayer modes with the options known from the previous installments of the Sniper Elite series.
The game is the first installment of the Sniper Elite series which was designed unencumbered by the technical limitations of Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. It allowed the developers to introduce enhancements and fixes that improve the performance and graphics of the title.

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.
Hardcore Gamer: 4 / 5 by Jordan Helm
If you’re willing to look past the graphics and animation in certain pockets, the self-contained loop that is Sniper Elite 4‘s gameplay offers some of the more surprisingly striking moments of well-implemented level design and genuine curiosity you can have in a shooter.
Nintendo Life: 8 / 10 by PJ O'Reilly
Sniper Elite 4 is the best entry yet in this long-running franchise with great big meaty missions stuffed to bursting point with Nazis to snipe and stab in glorious slo-mo X-ray vision. There's a new-found flexibility to the gameplay, with Karl now able to shimmy and scurry vertically around levels and enemy AI that's much more up to the task than in previous iterations. There may be some slightly rough edges, with duff writing, naff characters and gameplay that doesn't change much from start to finish but, overall, this is playful sniper's paradise that lands on Switch in a truly impressive port. It's time to dust off that M1903 Springfield, find a nice vantage point and get to blowing great big bloody holes in fascist heads. The perfect antidote to 2020.
