Playing on Sniper Elite difficulty will include these challenges, but when you hold your breath to fire, a red reticle will appear showing you exactly where your bullet will hit. Alternatively, if you’re a more skilled sniper then you will need to allow for the bullet to drop over distances and to counter the wind. If you’re an amateur, then you can have the bullet go exactly where you put the crosshairs. I love the way that you can tailor them to your skill level. The sniping mechanics are as good as ever. Personally, I will take my time lining up the perfect shot to shoot every guard in the head as I make my way through the level. If you’d prefer to sneak past all the guards, that is a viable tactic.

If you want to run and gun, you can do that (though it is not advised). You can often tackle objectives in the order that you see fit and in the way you would like.

These levels usually allow for a lot of freedom in how you want to tackle them. However, this plays out as you creeping around some fairly large maps, either taking enemies out at close range or from miles away. You have been tasked with assassinating General Franz Vahlen and thwarting his top-secret project. Even in the darkness of night on the Pont Du Fahs Airfield, there’s just a much fuller color palette. The Siwa Oasis is a long way from the grey rubble of Berlin in Sniper Elite V2. This allows for a more tropical location and lots more color.

Sniper Elite 3 isn’t as blandly gray as its predecessor because the action is set during the North African campaign of World War II.
