'Sniper Elite 4' (ALL) Adds PS4 Pro, DirectX 12 Support

Set in the immediate aftermath of its predecessor, Sniper Elite 4 continues the series’ World War Two heritage by transporting players to the beautiful and diverse environments of Italy in 1943.

Covert agent and elite marksman Karl Fairburne must fight alongside the brave men and women of the Italian Resistance to help free their country from the yoke of Fascism, and defeat a terrifying new threat with the potential to halt the Allied fightback in Europe before it’s even begun.

If his mission fails, there will be no Operation Overlord, no D-Day landings, and no Victory in Europe.

From sun-drenched Mediterranean coastal towns to colossal Nazi megastructures, daunting forests and giddying mountain monasteries inspired by Monte Cassino, Sniper Elite 4 will offer breathless emergent stealth action and unrivalled sniping freedom across maps many times the size of those seen in Sniper Elite 3.

Sniper Elite 4 is going all-in on next-gen with support for PS4 Pro and for DirectX 12 on PC!

Sniper Elite 4 will offer a number of technical improvements on PS4 Pro at launch, including enhanced frame rate, improved lighting and faster loading times (more details below).

"We've worked really hard to make Sniper Elite 4 our biggest and best game ever," said Rebellion CTO and Co-founder Chris Kingsley, "And now the power of PlayStation 4 Pro, and DirectX 12 on PC, means we can take things even further for our fans who want the best sniper experience in the world. We're turning everything up to 12!"

Sniper Elite 4 PS4 Pro features include:

  • Enhanced frame rate
  • Increased draw distances
  • Increased geometry level of detail
  • Improved lighting and shadows fidelity
  • Increased image quality of reflections
  • Faster loading times

In addition to supporting DirectX 12, Sniper Elite 4 still supports DirectX 11. 

Running in native 1080p on both PS4 and Xbox One, Sniper Elite 4 is the first game in the series built without the constraints of older hardware and aims to deliver the definitive World War Two shooter for a generation. Sniper Elite 4 features dedicated campaign, co-op and adversarial multiplayer modes.
