If this was the trade-off for the less impressive graphics, it was worth it in my opinion. I was surprised at how well the frame rate held up.

Should you find this too much though, you have the option to reduce the frequency or disable it.Īs for performance, the game runs at a stable 90fps on Oculus Quest 2 throughout, despite many frantic encounters. I had no sense of motion sickness at any point, which is to be commended when you are transferred into a bullet and skelped across the map at high speeds. I was also impressed with how this motion was handled in VR.

Honestly, it’s worth the price of admission alone. It is predictably brutal and eternally satisfying. This is amplified with the incredible killcam, which allows you to become the bullet and travel across the map at high speed before switching to a third-person perspective as you see the bullet crack the skeletal area you aimed at. It is another indication of the developers making sure that the games main hook is executed well and it really shows. Any other VR shooter I have played has had a noticeable dip in quality when viewed through a scope, but Sniper Elite VR doesn’t appear to suffer any such issue. One really impressive aspect though was how well the detail held up under the microscope of a sniper scope.

Graphically, my first impressions were not good. Clocking in around 6 hours, it was certainly a bigger experience than I expected going in.

To say the story is nothing to write home about would be an understatement, and there are definite pacing issues and abrupt story beats, but I appreciate the effort nonetheless. Instead, you are cast as an Italian resistance fighter who narrates in between missions. Series protagonist Karl Fairburne takes a back seat in this side story. The icing on the cake was the announcement that the title would also be coming to the super impressive Oculus Quest 2, which alleviated my concern about having to use the PlayStation Move controllers. In truth, I can’t think of a shooter franchise I would prefer to see given the headset treatment. Ever since Sniper Elite VR was announced back in 2019 I had been eagerly anticipating the game’s release.
