00:01Hi everyone and welcome to Rebellion, my name is Robby and in a second we're going to be chatting with
00:06Tim and Mike from the Sniper Elite 3 team to announce some really exciting new single player and multiplayer content,
00:11but before then we just want to say a massive thank you to everyone who's bought the game, you've helped
00:16us get to number one in the UK and loads of charts across the world and it's just been such
00:20an exciting month for the studio, reading everyone's comments, reading all the reviews and seeing what you thought of the
00:25game.
00:26But let's have a quick sneak peek now at some really cool stuff that we've been working on since launch.
00:38I'm with Mike Howell, the lead designer on Sniper Elite 3 and Mike and I are going to chat to
00:42you very quickly about Airfield which is a brand new multiplayer map, it's going to be free for whatever platform
00:48you play Sniper Elite 3 on and yeah Mike could you explain to us a little bit about what we
00:53can expect when you're playing Airfield and multiplayer.
00:56Sure thing buddy, well a lot of the fans might be familiar with Airfield from the single player campaign and
01:02we've taken this airfield and absolutely obliterated it now so the hangars have been torn apart, there's been a bombing
01:08run which has gone down the centre of the airfield, we've introduced these nice little sort of flanking routes underneath
01:14the airfield that you can furtively duck under and flank your opponents and we've got a lot of new sniping
01:18positions which we've introduced throughout the map as well which the players will have a bit of fun trying to
01:23find those new ones in the environment.
01:25Yeah sure, great, so do you have any tips on certain areas players should be looking out for?
01:31Definitely, well up in the sort of rafters in the hangars is a good one to try and get up
01:35into but make sure you're protecting your flanks there, we've got a lot of nice soft cover around the edge
01:40of the map so players who are getting down and dirty with the ghillie suit will enjoy using some of
01:44the brush and foliage to snipe players from up in the hills and see how the tactics go there.
01:49Ok great, well something we haven't talked about is actually this is only the first set of new free multiplayer
01:56maps that will be coming out across the summer, could you give the snipe fans a quick preview of what
02:02they can expect what's coming up?
02:03Sure, well we've got a very sort of interesting unique tropical map where there's a lot of dense foliage, a
02:10couple secret spots around the external perimeter as well, we've got a high altitude map which is actually kind of
02:15three spires and they're separated with the sort of like old ruined sort of dry river bed and lots of
02:21tank carcasses and that sort of thing and you know it's really sort of interesting dynamic we've been playing that
02:26with the studio up north and the final one's kind of just a ruinous sort of battlefield with a bit
02:32of a seascape around the outside.
02:33But again you know there's lots of great vantage points for the player to take advantage of there as well.
02:38Great, sounds like a lot of fun. Brilliant, thanks Mike. Moving on to single player we've had a dedicated team
02:44of designers working on some brand new single player content for you. It's a three part mission series called Save
02:50Churchill and here's Head of Creative Tim Jones to tell you a little bit more about it.
02:54Well Save Churchill is a set of three new single player downloadable content missions that form a little mini campaign
03:00in which you're playing Carl Fairbairn trying to thwart a German plot to assassinate Winston Churchill himself in the run
03:07up to the famous Casablanca conference.
03:10Well we've got some really exciting stuff over the three levels. The first is actually a return to the popular
03:15Seaware Oasis mission but this time it's at night, it's more overgrown, time has passed, been bombed out, it'll play
03:21very differently to what players have experienced before.
03:23In the later levels we move into a secret weapons facility, there's like a stunning coliseum in one of the
03:30missions which is actually the largest environment we've created in any of the Sniper Elite games ever which I think
03:36is going to blow people away.
03:38For experienced Sniper Elite players that have been through the campaign, they'll be looking for some new experiences, so we've
03:44got new encounters, new weapons, new unit types and the new missions I think are really going to feel very
03:50different.
03:50The first mission is called Save Churchill Part 1, Into Adows. We'll be releasing Parts 2 and 3 later in
03:57the summer.
03:58So that was a sneak peek at the new Save Churchill missions for Sniper Elite 3 but the only thing
04:02we haven't told you is when you're going to get to play all this new content.
04:05Both the new Airfield multiplayer map and Save Churchill Part 1, In Shadows are available right now on Steam for
04:12PC and if you've got consoles they'll be coming out very soon on those too.
04:16Remember we've got loads more content coming this summer and we'll see you in the forums.
