Brought to us by the co-developers of The Simpsons Game and the publishers of Rogue Trooper on Wii, Sniper Elite is a tactical shooter set in the Battle of Berlin in 1945.
The simulator, based on sniping gameplay, puts you in the shoes of an American OSS agent, Karl Fairburne, disguised as a German sniper, with the objective of obtaining German nuclear technology before the Soviet NKVD does.
Never before has the art of sniping been taken to the extreme, with options for enabling realistic ballistics, such as bullet drop, wind strength and breathing when attempting a shot. When you make an ‘extreme’ sniper shot, the view follows the path of the bullet in slow motion, while the camera rotates around the bullet, making for exceptionally satisfying kills.
Sniper Elite™, the world’s best selling ‘Action/Adventure Sniper Simulator’ is being brought to the Nintendo Wii™ by UK publisher Reef Entertainment.
The original Sniper Elite™ was launched in 2005 on PS2, Xbox and PC and quickly set the standard for in-game sniper techniques and bullet physics which influenced games such as Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare and Unreal Tournament.
Peter Rezon, CEO of Reef Entertainment said; ‘The Nintendo Wii™ platform has been very good for Reef and we will continue to develop innovative and unique games for it. Following on from our recent launches of Free Running™ & Rogue Trooper: Quartz Zone Massacre™, we are incorporating features to ensure that Sniper Elite™ will be an essential purchase for all shooter fans.’
The WiiTM version of Sniper Elite™ makes full use of the Wii’s control system with movement and gestures, is compatible with the Wii Zapper, and contains new levels and a raft of additional features, making this game one of a kind.

We have taken a game which has been called ‘the Gran Turismo of War Games’ and we will fully immerse gamers into Berlin 1945. Rifle add-ons such as the Wii Zapper have been a primary focus to make the game as realistic and exciting as possible. We believe this will be one of the most fun shooter titles launched in 2010”.
Sniper EliteTM on Nintendo WiiTM will be launched Q2 2010.
