New games! New games! Wherefore art thou new games? It’s the season of love and what better way to celebrate your significant other, or your singleness, than by giving the gift of gaming?

Sniper Elite 4 (PC, PS4, Xbox One) – February 14th

Set in 1943, Sniper Elite 4 takes you across the Italian peninsula, giving players a look at anything from Mediterranean towns to Nazi megastructures, creepy forests, and more. Covert agent, Karl Fairburne, must fight alongside the men and women of the Italian Resistance to fight to free their country from Fascism. However, there’s a catch. If the mission fails, it changes the entire course of history. If failure comes about, there will be no Victory in Europe. Running in native 1080p on both PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, Sniper Elite 4 is the first game in the Sniper Elite series built from the ground-up for next generation hardware. With an expansive campaign for up to two players and co-op multiplayer modes, Sniper Elite 4 aims to deliver the World War II shooter with sniping freedom across maps many times the size of those seen in previous Sniper Elite games.
