I wouldn’t expect to find multiplayer to be a bustling hive of activity, but there could be some games to be found if you’re picking this up early.Īll of this plays rather nicely on the Nintendo Switch, though long distance sniping will challenge you more in handheld mode than it will on a TV. You’ve then got a Survival mode on two maps, and there’s co-op through all of this alongside a competitive multiplayer.

The main campaign is obviously the centrepiece, but it’s joined by the Hunt for Grey Wolf mission (which bizarrely isn’t in the PS4’s Ultimate Edition) and the Churchill trilogy (which is in the PS4 release). All of the content is here and the main menu has been tweaked to reveal all the modes to you that little bit better. Speaking of which, Sniper Elite 3 Ultimate Edition really lives up to its name on Nintendo Switch. Sniper Elite 3 was the game that introduced the grim spectacle of popping testicles – one of the clues as to whether you’d managed to assassinate the real Hitler in the Hunt for Grey Wolf DLC mission.

The series’ distinctive X-ray killcams are here in full force, by default triggering almost every time you get a kill (thankfully you can still reduce their frequency or simply turn them off). Really they’re all there as fodder for your stealth or sniping kills.

Near, far, wherever they are, it’s nigh on impossible to really tell unless you plug in some headphones. Additionally, the audio mix seems to be a bit wonky, with enemy voices coming through far too loudly on the Switch’s built in speakers. If you’re discovered, the AI will hunt you down based off your last known location, and you simply need to escape the area to have them return to their previous posts, but they’re typically not that smart and can often feel overly aware on a sleepy night in North Africa.

There’s diesel engines you can sabotage to become noise-makers that disguise your sniper shots, giving you ample opportunity to make use of your sniper rifle. You can feel this stopping point on the series’ evolution elsewhere as well. It’s “wide-linear” as Naughty Dog might describe it, with a little more sprawl to the world design, with branching paths that might let you reach objectives in a different order. Sniper Elite 3 sits somewhere between the two.

Sniper Elite 4, meanwhile, has larger, much more open levels that give you numerous routes to choose from and often throw multiple objectives at you to complete in differing orders. Sniper Elite V2 (which was a remake and reimagining of the original game) is a fairly straightforward and linear experience, funnelling you through bombed out Berlin streets and Nazi installations from one objective to the next. What’s fascinating from a gameplay and game design perspective is seeing how Sniper Elite 3 lives in the series’ evolution. Five years on and Rebellion have been revisiting the earlier entries in the series, with a remaster of Sniper Elite V2 earlier this year and now with the release of Sniper Elite 3 Ultimate Edition on Nintendo Switch.

All nine (yes nine) DLC packs and all free bonus content will be included along with the original game, which Mick reviewed and quite liked.Has it really been over five years since Sniper Elite 3 came out? One of the many games that bridged the generations, Sniper Elite 3 landed on PS4, Xbox One, PS3, Xbox 360 and PC way back in 2014. The new package will be available on March 10 th for the 360, PS3, PS4 and Xbox One, no mention of a PC release.
