Sniper elite v2 remastered review5/20/2023 ![]() ![]() There’s also co-op play, both locally if you have two switches and online with modes to play with friends or randoms across the world. I think it’s an ok price for a game which has a good-sized campaign coming in at about 7 hours with lots of difficulty options. These prices are the same across all platforms. The game costs the following £29.99/$34.99/€34.99 and you will get a 10% discount if you order a digital copy. Missions vary which keeps the game from getting stale but most of the time you will be manoeuvring through environments stealthily, trying not to get seen, although the foes here have an uncanny knack of seeing you no matter where you are which is a little annoying, to say the least. The campaign gives the player a decent trek through environments which have been pretty beaten up by the war. ![]() This is very much about taking cover and reeling out a few well-placed shots to your enemy, only getting into close combat when absolutely necessary, at least for me as I never lasted too long when the enemy got close. If you are looking to go in all guns blazing then you are not going to survive very long here. All DLC has been included also including the “Kill Hitler” Mission. ![]() Gameplay in Sniper Elite v2 has not really changed since the original when talking about the campaign, other than being able to choose up to 8 characters from Rebellions Zombie army series. Touching on the controls yes there is Gyro controls which work both well in handheld and with my pro controller so those of you that prefer aiming like this will enjoy it and it certainly adds to it being more realistic especially moving the crosshair around but it’s not for me as I found more precision using analogue controls but that’s my personal preference. In handheld, the game performs very well and I did not come across any stutter or slowdown which meant the game ran very smoothly indeed. In docked you are getting 1080p and 30 frames per second, I could not see the performance mode here which will allow the game run to at 60 FPS but this is only available on other systems, which is a shame as it would have been nice to have the choice like in the recent Darksiders Warmastered Edition. There is also improved lighting and a number of refinements which just makes the game seem to run smoother. The environments, weapons, and vehicles have all had extra detail added and look very good on the Switch. What the Switch does bring with it though, is a good amount of improvements over the original release in 2012 in terms of the visuals. If you want to play this in 4K then you will, of course, need to consider another platform as this is not available on the Nintendo Switch. This has the added caveat of being the remastered version which is launching at the same time on other platforms. We are going to start this review, as we usually do for ports like this, with visuals and performance. ![]()
