Three different separate co-op game modes. You get a single player campaign that can also be played with a friend in online co-op. And it’s pretty great since there’s a lot of content. Unlike the Wii U port, you’re getting the original game fully intact along with all subsequent DLC characters and missions. So, does Sniper Elite V2 Remastered keep everything from other versions of the game? In short, yes. Though I’m also sure this may change with the day 1 patch.Īll that’s really left to talk about is the content.
#SNIPER ELITE V2 THE GAME 720P#
I imagine the game hovers somewhere between 720p and 900p for most of the time though it can occasionally hit 1080p if it wants. And this is where I think most of the initial unimpressive reaction came from. Just like, well, every Switch game ever, the game utilizes a dynamic resolution to keep the framerate up while knocking down the overall quality of the image on the screen. So I guess everything I just said is moot.
#SNIPER ELITE V2 THE GAME PATCH#
I should note that the game does have a day 1 patch with further optimizations in mind but considering that it’s going out the day of release and not while I’m supposed to be reviewing it, I can’t really comment on it. Especially since the game is so heavily focused on stealth and sniping, which doesn’t necessarily require crazy quick reflexes as general action shooting would. But it’s not bad enough that it could ruin the experience. And the game certainly likes to drop frames when just about anything is happening.
#SNIPER ELITE V2 THE GAME PS4#
The game is capped at 30 FPS and doesn’t feature the 60fps option like the PS4 and Xbox One versions. It especially sticks out when sniping since a lot of enemies at a distance tend to look like GoldenEye enemies.Īs for performance, it’s alright. One thing that stands out is the distance where the game loads in the normal, more defined models as opposed to the lower-res ones being fairly short. Otherwise, Sniper Elite V2 on Switch isn’t exactly an impressive looking game. And there are some extra lighting effects that range from “oooh that’s nice” to “that lens flare looks awful and out of place”. Other than that, textures appear to be much more defined and even have some normal mapping applied. There’s way more detail in the remastered version, with tons of foliage and debris added to levels and even some of the cutscenes like the pigeons in the opening cutscene. And when side by side, that’s when the difference begins to spring up. The Wii U version looks ever so slightly better than the 360, as one would expect, so I’ll be sticking to it to compare with the new Switch version. So I booted up the Wii U version and even the Xbox 360 version of the game for comparison’s sake. I know I said earlier that with the Switch being less powerful than other platforms, you can tend to expect a hybrid between current and last gen graphics but to me, it honestly didn’t really look all that better than I remembered it looking.
When I first started playing, I honestly wasn’t too impressed. So it only makes sense to start with how the game looks and runs. So as you could probably infer, this review is going to be focusing more on how Sniper Elite V2 Remastered is as a port than as a game itself.
#SNIPER ELITE V2 THE GAME FULL#
Are Nintendo players finally getting the full V2 experience, or are we being clipped yet again? Now it’s coming back as Sniper Elite V2 Remastered and coming to all modern platforms, including Switch. And yet they still charged $50 for the game. No co-op, DLC side missions, or multiplayer.
Despite having been a year old by the time the Wii U version released, the port shipped the game’s single-player campaign and nothing else. One of the earliest and most infamous examples was Sniper Elite V2. Because of this, third-party support dwindled fast and developers put less effort into their ports. Which had a fantastic modern graphics chip but was severely bottlenecked by a very outdated processor. Meanwhile, other effects like the level of detail and lighting tend to stick closer to last generation iterations.Īnother console with similar in-between power was the Wii U.
Keeping resolutions and texture detail high, similar to the current consoles. Because of this, ports tend to be a hybrid of graphical fidelity. Despite a worryingly common misconception that the system is no more powerful than the Xbox 360, when in reality it’s somewhere in the middle. I’d say we’ve had it pretty good when it comes to remasters and re-releases of 7th generation games on the Switch.
