Sniper Elite: Resistance er på vej, og det tager igen udgangspunkt i anden verdenskrig, ligesom alle de andre spil i serien. Hvis du elsker serien, men er lidt træt af denne setting, så står det ikke til at ændre sig lige foreløbig.
I et interview med VideoGamer fortæller Level Designer Beck Shaw fra Rebellion, at vil beholde anden verdenskrig som fast setting:
"Sniper Elite, at least for the foreseeable future, will still be grounded in World War 2. I think it gives us a really good challenge. Like, World War 2 was probably the last time where, you know, it was one man and his gun against the Nazis. Obviously, uh there probably were people that stuck behind enemy lines, but you don't have all these drones flying around, you don't have thermal imaging sensors and all that satellite data modern soldiers might have."
Han slår dog fast at der er masser af historier at fortælle, men ønsker du på et tidspunkt at serien bevæger sig lidt væk fra nazisterne, eller passer det her meget godt sammen?
"I won't say, like, we won't explore these in the future, but yeah I think we are happy being in World War 2 right now, and there's a lot of places we haven't been to yet."
