Sniper Elite 4 Reviews
A game about sniping, does what it sets out to and was fun along the way. I don't feel quite like investing lots of time in this a la some open world games but it has a future as a just for fun game.
Sniper Elite 4 is the best entry in Rebellion’s long-running franchise yet, and a great title for fans of stealth gaming.
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.
The only thing I want this Valentine’s Day
Sniper Elite 4 doesn't wholly shed its grindhouse, B-game origins, but it's definitely an ambitious step forward for a stealth series that used to rely more on gimmickry.
Ben received a digital copy of Sniper Elite 4 from GDE for review.
Sniper Elite 4 is in a class all its own with its long-ranged shooting, and quite frankly – don’t we all want to give it to a few Nazis these days?
Continuing the voyage out of Germany, our friendly sniper now hunts the Italian countryside in his effort to thwart the Nazis.
Sniper Elite 4 isn’t a revelation, but it’s a solid game that shouldn’t be missed if you enjoy stealth games.
In the end, while there is a flat story with a protagonist that lacks any real personality, they aren't big enough issues to spoil where it matters most.
Sniper Elite 4 delivers a solid sniping experience and a lot of fun stealth moments. It has a forgettable story and a few technical quirks but succeeds in delivering all the skeletal nonsense that fans of the series have come to expect.
If the thought of a long-range shot passing through the eye-socket of a Nazi appeals well, then, give it a shot.
It's unashamedly silly, and brilliant as a result.
Sniper Elite 4 is a good TPS, that has the guilty to not improve a lot from the previous chapter: sniping is good but the mechanics are always the same; on the other hand, the map and the exploration are quite good.

Sniper Elite 4 manages to offer a unique approach to shooter games, thanks to its deep and articulated sniping mechanics. Yet, the release on Switch doesn't even try to hide its age and feels shallow and forgettable. If you love this kind of game, probably Switch isn't the best choice where to play it.

The Switch has now been out for about 3 years, in that time we have seen quite a few older Triple A titles get re-released onto the Switch. Games like Skyrim and LA Noire and newer games like Doom 2016. Of the many titles we have seen varied performance.
The jump to current-gen consoles (and increased power and draw distances) tackled last iteration, Rebellion truly shines in this new release.
A bigger and better game than its forebear, Sniper Elite 4 is ludicrously good fun, proving beyond doubt that there's infinite appeal in blasting Nazis' bits off. Scope it out.
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.
Whether you dive in now or later, expect another solid entry into Rebellion's long-running, compelling and often thrilling series.
