At the end of the day, the objects and landscapes haven’t changed, they are just rendered in a higher resolution.

A lot has changed in the intervening years with regards to graphics capabilities, but have the gains in resolution and complexity really changed all that much in 5-ish years? Is it really worth it for someone that already has Sniper Elite 2 to upgrade to the remastered version? Well, I’m going to have to dodge that question because it is entirely dependent on personal priorities. The most obvious difference is, of course, in the graphics. With all DLC missions included, take the fate of the war into your own hands, and hunt the Führer himself. Witness the terrifying power of your bullet as it enters an enemy’s body. Master authentic weaponry, stalk your target, fortify your position, set up the shot, and use your skill, patience and cunning to achieve the mission.Īll new graphics and rendering technology gives you improved X-ray kill camera detail. Stealth is key as you find yourself trapped between two desperate armies in a race against time. You must aid key scientists keen to defect to the US, and terminate those who stand in your way. Your mission is to prevent Nazi V2 rocket technology falling into the hands of the Red Army. You are elite sniper Karl Fairburne, parachuted into Berlin amidst the Germans’ final stand.

If you aren’t familiar with the series, here’s a quick synopsis explaining the premise of the series and a couple of specifics about the remastering, courtesy of the Steam store page: But it’s not precisely the aged Sniper Elite 2 - it is actually the brand new Sniper Elite 2 - Remastered. Having started this lengthy journey with a Summer Sale purchase of Sniper Elite 4, and continuing with a later purchase if Sniper Elite 3, I am now playing Sniper Elite 2. In this case, I’ve been playing a game first released in 2012 because 1) I have played two of its progeny, 2) because it’s very low cost, and 3) it’s underlying graphics have been upgraded to modern standards, sort of. Sometimes a retread comes along that matches all three of those criteria.
Sometimes it’s because they’re on sale for a giveaway price, sometimes they have been upgraded with newer technologies, and sometimes I end up working from the newest to oldest in a venerable series. There are a number of reasons that I end up playing games that are half a decade old before I get around to them.
