Rebellion Development announced the availability today of the new St. Pierre DLC pack for Sniper Elite V2, which sends Fairburn to the French countryside. The crew informed fans in a pretty interesting way too, dressing up the press release as some mission intelligence. Check it out below!
"Great work on clearing that fuel depot up at Neudorf, Agent Fairburne, really threw a spanner in the works for their re-enforcement plans.
But enough about former glories; there's something of a counter attack coming on the western front; led by a General Rodebrecht. Now, he's a bit of a rising star in the German high command and some believe he may be able to turn the tide which frankly we can't have, not now we're making such good headway pushing across France towards Berlin. SHAEF see this man as a significant threat and want him eliminated. His service book needs to be retrieved as proof that the mission was completed.
We're not sure exactly where you'll find Rodebrect but the latest intel puts him somewhere in the countryside surrounding the village of St Pierre so you're going to have to plan this one out yourself and track him down. We've got a couple of new weapons for you to try out on this one - the British have sent over a few of their Lee Enfield No 3 rifles which you should find particularly handy with their high velocity 303 rounds and you'll also find our brand new M1D Garand, a semi-automatic rifle which General Patton has called 'the greatest battle implement ever devised.'"
TL;DR version:
- I don't know what a "spanner" is
- Players will head out to St. Pierre, France, to take down General Rodebrecht, leading a German counterattack
- New weapons include the Lee Enfield No 3 rifle, and the M1D Garand semi-automatic rifle
- Gamers can grab the DLC from Xbox Live for 400 Microsoft Points, or for $4.99 from PlayStation Network
