505 Games has confirmed that Sniper Elite V2 is coming to the Wii U. The shooter will feature new control options and “a level of interactivity only possible with the Wii U GamePad touch screen.”

“Players will enjoy the same thrilling, visceral experience as they guide American OSS agent Karl Fairburne around historical locations throughout Berlin and attempt to unravel the mysteries and dangers of the German V-2 rocket program but now with even greater tactical depth and flexibility thanks to brand new functionality through the GamePad – tag enemies and booby-traps, track enemy locations and activity, even monitor the blast radius of planted explosives – all with a glance at the touch screen and without leaving the battlefield for even a second.” -505 Games

Sniper Elite V2 will also have the standard style of gameplay from the original release, including the "kill cam." Jason Kingsley, the CEO of Rebellion, commented “Sniper Elite is just the kind of mature game that is perfect for the different mechanics of the Wii U. It’s been a challenge to get it right, but thanks to our team and the fantastic support of our partners at 505 Games we believe we’ve brought the unique gameplay to a whole new platform.”

The game will be released on the Wii U in Spring of this year.
