Critiques de la Presse (Metacritic)
« I have no hesitation in recommending this to any Sniper Elite fan… or really anyone who enjoys the sniping aspect of FPS games. To be honest… even if you don’t… you can technically play this as a run and gun as well… it may be more challenging but you’ve got your pistol and machine gun options… so tackle it how you want. There’s so much fun to be had here that I can really only scratch the surface. I will leave this by saying, find the highest point, check your surrounds with your binoculars and take aim for fun. »
« Sniper Elite 4 is the best sniping game I’ve ever played, and is absolutely the high point of the series. This is a perfect example of what can be achieved if a developer understands what their game’s potential is, and never stops working towards it. Rebellion has made huge leaps forward with every new entry in this series, and they’ve finally reached a point where the results are flat-out incredible. I can only imagine the great things they’ll accomplish in the future. »
« Sniper Elite 4 is a first-class game, troubled only by some minor flaws, such as an Artificial Intelligence not always up to the task. If you love the tactical stealth genre and the sniper rifles, you'll be more than pleased: the game offers an inspired level design with endless possibilities for every mission, and a high replayability value. »
« In a time where games rely on updates, patches, and DLC to become what the game should have been at launch, it was very refreshing to see Sniper Elite 4 release without any glaring weaknesses or issues. Overall, the game is well polished and simply fun to play, without sacrificing intricate details for the sake of simplicity. Lastly, the title also features an authentic, hardcore difficulty for “sniping purists and masochists” which is sure to add many hours to a title already with lots of potential for replayability. Sniper Elite 4 took a shooter niche, sniping, and built an excellent title and solid franchise around it. »
« Sniper Elite 4 is the best entry in Rebellion’s long-running franchise yet, and a great title for fans of stealth gaming. »
« If you prefer your shooters to be more methodical or enjoy taking out enemies with pinpoint accuracy rather than just blindly rushing into skirmishes, Sniper Elite 4 will delight your trigger finger. Whether you’re a long-time series fan or someone just who wants to test their sniping skills, Sniper Elite 4 hits its target. »
« Sniper Elite 4’s advancements make it the best entry in the franchise to date and a must-have for anyone with a penchant for stealth-based action. »
« Planned DLC releases with new weapons, similar to Sniper Elite III, are on the horizon, which makes Sniper Elite 4 one possibly best waiting a bit on to purchase. During that time, we’re sure to see patches and extra polish like practically any other game released in the last several years, and an Ultimate Edition seems quite likely. But whether you dive in now or later, expect another solid entry into Rebellion’s long-running, compelling and often thrilling series. »

« Si disfruté el juego, la segunda guerra mundial me fascina. Hablando del juego diría que no está mal, cumple con su prometido. La IA se comporta bien con sus advertencias aunque me gustaría que sea mas exigente en su busqueda. Hay algunos detalles de mecánicas pero es llevadero aunque el juego te obliga a comportarte de cierta forma. »

« The game was a good one. Although the aiming system definitely has multiple bugs. Unlike Sniper Elite 3 where you can aim and shoot more arcade style, here even at the easiest dificulty (cadet) I noticed that the aiming was way too off. There were plenty of ocassions where the bullet should have hit but it doesn't (in cadet mode there's no ballistic mechanics - the bullet flies in a straight line). The story was good. The characters and acting was pretty impressive. The level designs were good initially. However, the last 3-4 levels were pretty annoying because you cannot see anything. Too much camouflauge. But the enemy can see you through the trees / bushes for some strange reason. Various places look very distinct like Italy and sycily islands (not sure if that's the correct spelling). The weapon upgrades were pretty much broken as well. You have to level up to earn a single token. Overall I got only 6-7 tokens in the game. And you can unlock weapons by consuming 3-5 tokens each. Which means in the entire game you're allowed to unlock only 1 or 2 weapons. That's ridiculous! Also the upgrade system was broken as well. The game plays very smooth however. The graphics are very well optimized. The character's controls respond very smooth and reliably as well. It was really fun to be running around and shooting. The last 3-4 level designs are pretty horrible though. It gets very difficult to snipe and you're often forced to get into close combat because of the way the levels are designed and where the enemies are placed. Quite unsatisfying. But overall a good experience. »
« This is my favorite shooter ever. I just love the gameplay and all the different ways you can approach each mission. Killing **** will never not be awesome. »
« I adored this title. I even adored most aspects of authentic plus. Its most frustrating moments were when the enemies know telepathically where you are, that stealth kills are not - in fact - stealth kills, and that a mosin nagant needs to shoot more than once a person on their torso to kill them. Fortunately you can customise some if these things to taste, unfortunately, custom difficulty doesn't work for multiplayer. Other than that, cool game. If you'rea fan of tactics and stealth you're gonna have a good time. »
« Bom jogo. Não é cansativo. Dá para passar um tempo jogando e, como ele é razoavelmente curto, é bom de virar. Não tem lá uma boa história, nem ótimos gráficos, mas vale a pena. »
« Probably the best Sniper Elite installment. The maps on each level are expansive and resemble the landscapes of "Metal Gear Solid V". While playing solo is fun, you'll have more fun tackling the campaign with a buddy in co-op online. There's also an online horde survival mode for four players and competitive multiplayer matches. Fans of both the series and "Hitman" will enjoy the ride. I'd rate it with an 8 out of 10. »
