If you're a fan of Rebellion's renowned World War II sharpshooting series, you'll be thrilled to learn that Sniper Elite 4, one of the latest entries in the series, is now available for pre-order on iPhone and iPad. If you're fortunate enough to own an iPhone 16, 15, or an iPad with the M1 chip or later, you might want to save some of your Christmas money, as the game is set to launch on January 25th.
For those unfamiliar with the series, Sniper Elite puts you in the boots of elite sniper Karl Fairburne. Whether you're tasked with assassinating Nazi high command, sabotaging secret projects, or disrupting enemy operations, you'll have access to a variety of weapons, gadgets, and sniper rifles, not to mention the iconic X-ray kill cam, to complete your missions.
In Sniper Elite 4, you'll be transported to Italy, where Fairburne's mission is to thwart yet another Nazi superweapon project. The game's massive open levels and missions are made possible through impressive optimization techniques like MetalFX Upscaling. Additionally, you'll benefit from cross-progression and universal purchase, allowing you to play Sniper Elite 4 on your iPhone, iPad, or Mac seamlessly.
Hit or Miss? Bringing Sniper Elite 4 to mobile is an ambitious move, especially considering the game's age and its demanding graphics and technical requirements. The lush Italian landscapes, olive groves, and detailed combat scenes are a far cry from simpler mobile games like Candy Crush. If Rebellion can successfully pull this off, it could mark a new era in mobile sharpshooting entertainment.
