Developers introduced "Deathstorm Part 3: Obliteration" where players will find elite agent Karl Fairburne within the enemy's camp to carry out his mission and "neutralize the Deathstorm nuclear project."
"He must infiltrate an underground, heavily guarded complex hidden beneath a sleepy village, and terminate Deathstorm for good," Wakelam added. The "Obliteration" campaign will be situated outside of Italy and back in a Nazi camp in Germany — a first for the "Sniper Elite 4" story.
Rebellion Developments also launched the "Lock and Load" expansion that features three newly-added weapons, which are the M30 Drilling, the SVT semi-automatic rifle and the M712 Mauser fully automatic pistol.
The developers likewise introduced a new and tougher game mode called Authentic Plus. "We've essentially decided to make the AI more relentless, along with a few other changes and wrap it all up into a new difficulty level," Wakelam explained.
He added: "The enemy never stops searching for you once they know you're in the area."
Meanwhile, the latest game update will also allow "Sniper Elite 4" players to change character skins in the game's main campaign. The game change was applied after Rebellion Developments received a lot of requests for the said option.
"Sniper Elite 4" is available on PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.
