OXFORD (Nov. 30, 2023) - Rebellion, one of the world's most successful independent video game developers and publishers, has today released Sniper Elite VR: Winter Warrior, a new VR game for Meta Quest 2, 3 and Pro which takes you behind enemy lines for the ultimate immersive World War II sniping experience. The launch trailer is available to watch here.
Sniper Elite VR: Winter Warrior is available to buy now on the Meta Quest Store for $14.99.
Developed in partnership with Just Add Water, Sniper Elite VR: Winter Warrior features a full story-driven campaign as you relive the memories of the Partisan, a former Italian resistance soldier. Take on the fight to banish the Nazi forces from your homeland and uncover Nazi wonder-weapons that must be destroyed along with those behind the plans.
In addition to the full-length campaign, there are two new game modes: Sniper Hunt and Last Stand. Sniper Hunt is an intense game of cat and mouse that pits you against expert Nazi snipers. Ambush a patrol to lure out a crack enemy sniper and engage in a nail-biting duel. Then relocate, collect ammo and prepare to face the next expert marksman that the enemy has to offer.
Last Stand sees you digging in against waves of enemies. You will have to gather weapons and ammunition, and set traps, before deciding on your strategy to defeat the oncoming forces. Will your strategy be to run and gun, or defend a single location? Either way, there are only two options: survive or die.
The immersion offered by virtual reality helps to greatly enhance the gunplay and handling in all game modes. Hold your sniper rifle with both hands, bring the scope to your eye and hold your breath as you prepare to take the perfect shot. Sniper Elite VR: Winter Warrior also features new weaponry including the M1 Garand, a fan favorite from the Sniper Elite series.
