Sniper Elite III

Sniper Elite III is set in North Africa during a conflict against Germany’s Afrika Korps. You stalk targets through the Western Desert’s canyons, oases and ancient cities while trying to sabotage a Nazi super-weapons programme that threatens to end Allied resistance.

Hunt your targets

Use stealth, planning and execution against human and machine targets. You can make long-distance rifle kills, perform melee takedowns, create distractions and set explosive traps. If a situation turns against you, the Relocate mechanic lets you slip into the shadows and resume the hunt from a new position.

Rifle shots account for distance, gravity, wind and your heart rate. The X-Ray Kill Cam shows human damage in detail, including muscle layers, mesh particles and the circulatory system. X-Ray vehicle takedowns show multi-stage destruction as you dismantle armoured cars, trucks and Tiger tanks piece by piece.

Levels and objectives

The campaign takes place across large, multi-route levels with multiple primary and secondary objectives that you can tackle in any order. Your choices of route and approach let you take on these levels in different ways.

Multiplayer and co-op

Online competitive play offers five modes. You earn Medals and Ribbons, gain XP across all game modes, and customise your character, weapons and loadout.

You can play the entire campaign online in two-player co-op. Two dedicated co-op modes, Overwatch and Survival, offer further tests of teamwork.

Customise the challenge

Choose between Veteran and Rookie, adjust the AI and assistance settings, and set how often X-Ray Kill Cams appear or turn them off entirely.
