Authenticity - The game features authentic World War II Berlin locations as well as vehicles, weapons such as the Springfield M1903, the Gewehr 43, and the Mosin-Nagant 1891/30, and uniforms modeled after the original versions.

X-Ray Kill Cam - Amazing 'kill cam' technology showcases what really happens when a bullet enters an enemy's body, allowing players to see hearts and lungs tear, livers burst, bones and teeth shatter, and entrails fall out.

The game also offers competitive multiplayer, though this is only available on the PC version. You'll be tasked with defending against wave after wave of enemy soldiers, of course, but the focus on sniping and trap setting makes it almost feel like a tower defense. Sniper Elite V2's take on Horde Mode is probably the most fun to be had in the game. Sniping is cool, but eventually the standard pattern-snipe targets, move to next area, and so on-just gets a little too much for an extended play session.Īside from the single-player mode, there are co-op modes to take part in a well. However, this still causes the game to feel a little repetitive. You can also shoot fuel tanks to make vehicles explode and assassinate enemy leaders to induce panic in the rest of the troops. You can do cool things like shooting grenades on enemy soldiers in order to make them explode. There were certainly enough hype sniping moments to make up for it though.
