Presented in the third person, the game controls exactly as you’d expect. Reloaded: A remastered version of Sniper Elite V2, released in 2012, this isn’t the game’s first time on a Nintendo platform, as it originally came to Wii U. Your journey will see you engage in a whole host of missions where you’ll need to be patient, sneaky, and, of course, deadly with a sniper rifle. Run-and-gun this is not: you are tasked with eliminating scientists that are developing the fabled V2 rockets. The first thing to take into consideration is that despite its military attire and setting and the fabulous scope of weapons in your arsenal, Sniper Elite V2 Remastered is just as much a tactical stealth game as it is a WWII-themed shooter. The military shooter scene on the Switch is also something that’s a little threadbare, so we had high hopes for this one. That in itself is not new the system is rapidly attracting titles from yesteryear to find a new audience.
Sniper Elite V2 Remastered is rather obviously a port of an older title, this one having previously been on Wii U, finding its way to the Nintendo Switch.
