Watching bullets rip through skin and bone via the Sniper Elite series’ X-ray kill cam should’ve probably got old by now. But no; it’s still as satisfying as it’s ever been.

Sniper Elite 3 Ultimate Edition is a nice port of Sniper Elite 3 with all the DLC included. The gameplay is tactical and requires patience, which may not be for everyone. Some tasks and situations can be frustrating, but you can still have a good time.
75%Sniper Elite 3 Ultimate Edition Review
While Sniper Elite V2 Remastered introduced Nintendo Switch owners to Rebellion’s WW2 sniper shooting gallery, it pales in comparison to the leaps and bounds Sniper Elite 3 Ultimate Edition makes in order to progress the series. While the stealthy, ranged formula is still intact, those far more open maps allow for greater player agency and more systemic moments as you unleash hell from up close and afar. Improved stealth, an unoriginal yet satisfying XP system for cheap rewards and some ridiculously fun multiplayer modes make this a real series highlight that runs like a dream on Ninty’s hardware, but dumb AI, a rather boring storyline and a rather worrying focus on gratuitous gore all conspire to sully the experience somewhat. Having said that, there are few things in modern video gaming that are as perversely satisfying as popping a Nazi's testicles from halfway across a battlefield, so break out your M1 Garand and get reducing the Reich’s virtual headcount, because this game is well worth a look, despite its shortcomings.
