Sniper Elite Set to Return to Fan-Favorite Protagonist after Sniper Elite: Resistance Experiment
Sniper Elite is a huge franchise at this point, with multiple entries, inspiring spin-off franchises of its own with Zombie Army, and it just recently released Sniper Elite: Resistance, with a fresh new protagonist in Harry Hawker.
That last tidbit of information left many fans shocked and surprised when it was revealed, not due to any dislike of Hawker, after all, he is the Player Two character model, but in fact because we all expected to see the return of Karl Fairburne, the protagonist of every other Sniper Elite game. Well, it looks like that will still be happening.
Sniper Elite 6, or Just Some Dlc?
We recently spoke to Beck Shaw, the Lead Level Designer for Sniper Elite: Resistance, and had to ask them several questions surrounding the surprising exclusion of Karl Fairburne, and more importantly, if he was likely to return, or if Harry Hawker was the new guy the franchise was going with.
