Sniper Elite 4 series has been there for a while now and has managed to gather a descent fan-base. Continuing the tradition, Rebellion Developments has released Sniper Elite 4 and I have to say, the game is more than just another iteration. The developer has added a lot of improvements from the predecessor and overall, Sniper Elite 4 is a solid 3rd person stealth shooter to have.
From the technical point of view, the game is not doing bad either however, since it’s a PC game too, there are some issues that have been reported by the users. I am sure that Rebellion will address those issues in time but in the meanwhile, if you are facing any issue, you can refer to the following guide.
