Sniper Elite 4 Reviews
A significant improvement on previous entries, with better stealth and AI making the sport of Nazi-hunting more enjoyable than ever.
Huge levels and an incredible array of new ways to take down your targets make Sniper Elite 4 a killer addition to the stealthy series
The grisly ballistics are still second to none, but it's the improvements made beyond the sniper scope that make Sniper Elite 4 a series standout.
Sniper Elite 4 comes across as a fully-realized result of the shifts Rebellion set in motion with the previous game, and proves itself an ably constructed, often gorgeous, and thoroughly engrossing stealth-action shooter.
Sniper Elite 4 is easily the best in the series so far. It’s still the same methodical stealth game at its core, but Rebellion have added to that with more possibilities for the player, bigger and more open maps, and a handful of new modes.
Sniper Elite 4 comes back to the top of the war stealth games. Great variety of possibilities and non-stop action with a very good recreation of Italy. Definitively, it is worth a try.

Sniper Elite 4 offers more of the same great gameplay that its predecessors were known for while tightening it up for the current generation.
Rebellion brings Sniper Elite 4 on the italian shores with the well know formula and some marginal improvements. The result is a well crafted experience and the extra composed by the possibility to play coop and versur with other players.

Sniper Elite 4 isn't without its flaws, but it delivers a number of noteworthy improvements over previous games in the series to make it an engrossing experience. The gruesome X-ray kill cams still haven't gotten old, and the more expansive and dense levels make the core gameplay all the more entertaining. It's definitely the best in the series yet, and is worth checking out for longtime fans and newcomers alike.
You can often measure a game like Sniper Elite 4 by how much fun you are having when everything has gone to hell.
Sniper Elite 4: Italia is the most beautiful and comprehensive game in the series, which offers a well-executed sandbox, modern graphics and really interesting tactical gameplay. The problems with AI and hitboxes can ruin the experience, but there is hope that all issues will be fixed with the patch. But even in this state it delivers the engaging gameplay of cat-and-mouse with sabotage operations against superior forces of infantry and military equipment. If you liked Metal Gear Solid 5 and want more tactics and sandbox stealth gameplay, Sniper Elite 4 is the best option to buy.

If you're looking for a fun Hitman-esque sneaky murder sandbox to blast about in, you'll have an absolute ball here.
In the end, while Sniper Elite 4 may not be the most innovative of games, it wholeheartedly embraces all of the unique quirks the series has come to be known for. It respects its audience enough to know just what they want, and delivers exactly that: pure unadulterated carnage.
With a revamped stealth system, improved AI, and massive sandbox-style levels, Sniper Elite 4 is hands-down the best game in the series.
Sniper Elite 4 is a good game by many metrics, and is the best in the series so far. It's a good shooter, a good stealth game and has exceptional shooting mechanics, but as a whole it's rarely exceptional. It's one of the better stealth games of the last few years, with several distinctive ideas combined to create a tense game that, while not all that much bigger in scope than its predecessor, feels bolder and more interesting.
Sniper Elite 4 improves all areas of the franchise to a greater or lesser extent, and its protagonist remains the only real weak spot.
Sniper Elite 4 isn't the most sophisticated experience, but it puts all of its strengths front and center and delivers a very polished shooter.
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.
The jump to current-gen consoles (and increased power and draw distances) tackled last iteration, Rebellion truly shines in this new release.
Landing the perfect snipe on someone in a moving vehicle from miles away, locating a crane hovering ominously above a busy area of Nazi's at a dangerous stage in your mission – these are all scenarios that you play a game like Sniper Elite 4.
