Developer and publisher Rebellion has shared a brand new trailer for the upcoming Sniper Elite V2 Remastered today, providing seven different reasons why it believes players should upgrade to (or simply buy - for those who have only owned Nintendo systems) the new release.

This remastered edition of the game features vastly updated visuals, with new rendering effects, enhanced textures, and much more besides, and all of the previously DLC is included as part of the package. Of course, the 4K and HDR support available on other platforms can't be offered on Nintendo's machine, but it's still looking rather lovely to us.
