Sniper Elite v2 remaster out this yr, Sniper Elite 5 and VR within the works

Cool snipers don't look at explosions.

Fans of taking pictures Nazis from very far-off have heaps to sit up for over the approaching months. During a improvement replace stream on Twitch, Rebellion revealed that they’ve bought extra WW2 sniping on the docket, beginning with a remastered model of Sniper Elite v2 due later this yr. While it’s a much bigger deal for console people, they’re integrating all of the DLC into the brand new version, giving it a little bit of a graphical clean-up and including just a few new playable characters. They additionally introduced Sniper Elite 5 and Sniper Elite VR, the latter co-developed by Just Add Water, however neither have been prepared to point out. See the recording of the stream under.

Sniper Elite v2 Remastered is precisely what it feels like. The previous shooter (personally I’d like a complete remake of the unique) polished as much as fashionable spec. Resolutions as much as 4k, HDR monitor assist, all of the DLC gubbins and a few additional bonuses. Probably the more than likely for use is a devoted picture mode that may be stepped by way of body by body, for whenever you need to seize the precise second Hitler’s cranium exploded. There’ll even be renewed aggressive multiplayer assist for as much as 16 gamers. No phrase to this point on whether or not current Sniper Elite v2 homeowners on PC will get the brand new model free or discounted, however I’d hope so.

On the upcoming entrance, Rebellion had lots to say, however not a lot to point out. While they didn’t have any footage prepared, they did point out {that a} correct Sniper Elite sequel was in improvement, but it surely’s anybody’s guess when it’ll be performed. Still early however additional alongside in manufacturing was Sniper Elite VR – they’re not prepared to substantiate {hardware} assist but, however they have been demoing it with a PSVR headset. It’ll be set within the Mediterranean (similar as Sniper Elite 4), and the temporary clip they confirmed of it – with the sniper scope being a correct 3D object you peek by way of – jogged my memory of the sensible Silent Scope arcade sequence.

At the top of the stream additionally they confirmed that supervillain administration sim Evil Genius 2, first introduced two years in the past, remains to be in manufacturing. They’re not prepared to point out it but, but it surely’s good to know that they’ve not forgotten about it. No phrase on whether or not it’ll include sniping as properly, however that is likely to be just a little on the nostril.

Sniper Elite v2 Remastered is due out earlier than the top of the yr. There’s no date, costs and even footage of the opposite games at this level, however at the very least we all know they’re in manufacturing.
